Only a violent and fundamentally flawed system prioritizes military spending over people, and pits communities against one another. Today’s spending bill in Congress does just that. 🧵 teapawt.org/AIPAC/status/150157403…

Roe v. Wade was a milestone in the fight for a world where we all can make our own decisions about our health, our families and our future with dignity. But securing the legal right to abortion has never been enough.

A typical website visit in 2022 1. Figure out how to decline all but essential cookies 2. Close the support widget asking if I need help 3. Stop the auto-playing video 4. Close the “subscribe to our newsletter” pop-up 5. Try and remember why I came here in the first place
