my hot take is that parents shouldn’t even be able to opt their kids out of sex ed 🤷🏻♀️
Excuse me why did my daughter get handed this at school? This is 5th grade, and I didn’t sign any paperwork allowing her to attend sex ed. Boys were also handed this.

As the OP explains in the thread, she ignored a permission slip from the school giving her the right to opt her child out of this lesson(s). Because she did not do this/forgot to do this, her child was taught with their peers x.com/deltaozzimo/st…

You, reading this tweet thinking this is nothing to do with you because you don’t commit violence and you’re sure you’ve got no internalised misogyny.
All of it’s connected, you just don’t understand how.

This is the future. Keep wages low, housing costs high. Criminalize homelessness. Incarcerate people for inability to afford living. Use them for slave labor.

It’s been said before but the second Greta started making connections between climate change and capitalism, colonialism, and imperialism the media coverage came to a screeching halt.

It really does not bode well for our society that politicians and corporations keep trying to destroy both entire repositories of knowledge and culture and our access to them while also championing AI tools that consistently plagiarize and provide incorrect information

It’s very clear from replies and reactions who watched Chappell Roan’s video and thought “what if I met my hero and they didn’t want to take a picture with me” rather than “what if a bunch of weirdos decided they had a constitutional right to stalk me and my family”

Hormonal birth control actually reduces the risk of ovarian cancer by 30-50%. Even if you take the pill for a year your risk of ovarian cancer is lowered for decades after. It’s wild to be fear mongering about birth control when our reproductive rights are dwindling by the second
Birth control has been considered a class 1 carcinogen since 2005.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This list also includes alcoholic beverages, outdoor air pollution, and processed meat.
There is also evidence hormonal birth control lowers risk of certain cancers, such as cervical.
