The floor was not lava for me back then. Every panicked step from the couch back to my bed was fraught with lurking murderers, monsters, kidnappers, aliens and ghosts, all set to a frenzied version of the theme song racing through my head.

At a really fundamental level Leo XIV is just a person with sound, well-reasoned, moral stances on the world and how life should be lived who isn't afraid to say those things in public. That kind of person simply does not make sense to business leaders and politicians for whom speech is convenience.

There's not going to be forgiveness this time. Nor mercy. Just justice as the Constitution intended. Scores of millions of Americans are never going to forget or forgive what's happening, and will demand severe punishment for it. These people are monsters.

i have a disproportionately high number of trans friends and acquaintances (5) that I knew before they came out and literally 100% of them are lighter, happier versions of themselves post-transition/coming out/whatever. (some of yall are still grumpy af but less than before thank GOD jk jk jk)
being transgender is amazing and beautiful, transitioning is one of the greatest choices you can ever make and i hope more people realize that its not dangerous or evil, but liberating

Mamdani got into office and instantly:

• Froze rent for 2 million New Yorkers
• Cut subway fares in half for low-income riders
• Fully funded NYC parks
• Added $680M for public schools
• Launched free child care for 2-year-olds

If establishment politicians actually wanted to help you, they could.

Mamdani promised and is immediately delivering on policies the centrists sneered at us for even mentioning for 40 years.

They're losing their minds because he's showing they've been lying all along about what is possible; he is proving that good government comes from the (not even that far) left
