10 years of bombs, air strikes, death and destruction. 10 years of starvation and displacement. @POTUS I ask you to #SpeakToSyrians and hear the human stories behind Assad’s atrocities. Thank you @TracyI19. I nominate @mariamjalabi and @janinedigi to join me and tag two others.

Companies are critical in the fight to end gun violence—and right now Facebook (@meta) is failing. Even though Facebook says it prohibits unlicensed gun sales, they let gun buyers and sellers violate that rule 10 TIMES before they are kicked off its platforms. #NoSecondChances
Seriously @delta? Nonstop or another airline ASAP.

Remember when all the schools and daycares closed for like a year and the whole country was like, “Eh, we’ll just let the women deal with that”? I’m gonna be mad about that for a *while*
