I have been called feminist, nerd, witch, tree-hugger, and liberal, as well as over-educated and 'woke,' and in each case the words were intended as an insult. Pssshh... I'll take those. (Maybe add animal lover and artist so I sound a bit nicer.)

You know, if the rat race involved racing actual rats I'd be much more interested in it.

(I spent 5 years training rats in grad school and they are some of my favorite beings.)

This is one of the hardest parts to accept - the pure evil that exists inside some in this country.

I never thought Iโ€™d see the day.

Americans being told by the rest of the world to fight for our own democracy.

We should never have gotten here.

Keep resisting. โœŠ๐Ÿฝ

If I die in the Civil War, at least I won't die on the side protecting pedophiles and billionaires.

To shame a woman, they say she slept with too many men. To shame a man, they say he slept with men. So clearly, society decided that sleeping with men is the embarrassing part.

Text reads, "Happy new year! Here's hoping that this year will be better than the last. Wait... is that Godzilla?"

Everyone always likes to force introverts to leave their comfort zone, but no one ever forces the extroverts to shut up for a while.

My resolution this year is the same as ever: not to resolve anything which carry through with I will not. But at least the 'no sentence ended with a preposition' from 1975 up is still holding.
