@carazelaya I can't tell you how often I've turned down panels bc I asked who else is on it & why they were inviting another white person before inviting any PoC. It's amazing how many respond with, well, I mean you're a trans woman…Like I guess just not cis/straight/white is their goal? 🙄 — PolitiTweet.org

@AldermanGeo Chief Justice Burger covered this, did you see my first tweet? Our opinions here as civilians aren't relevant given that SCOTUS has granted cert many times on this cluster of issues. Justice Stephens also writes here why that view is fraudulent & racist: https://t.co/Iq17iEp4ao — PolitiTweet.org

@bloucru It's Kentucky dude! Exact opposite in NYC where I lived before Lou. Everybody who wants kids leaves the city, it's way too expensive to raise children there. Sex ed in Kentucky is the stuff of parodies. People here get pregnant young before they even know if they want kids or not — PolitiTweet.org

Idea for @CDCgov & @JoeBiden: Incarcerating those who refuse to wear masks in overcrowded prisons is not what we want in a #pandemic. I suggest that if someone refuses to wear a mask in a store, judges should put them under house arrest, with an anklet, until they're vaccinated — PolitiTweet.org

Follow-up from this same thread: "My insurance covered the $132,000 spine surgery almost 100%. It covered none of the $135,000 hospital stay from aforementioned spine surgery." #MedicareForAll NOW. There's a pandemic!! If not now, when? If we are not the generation, who is?! — PolitiTweet.org

@quantum_mystic They are already in a vacuum with gravity pushing the wine out of the spout as how they function. That's why they don't oxidize! They stay good a month after opening as opposed to on the order of hours. — PolitiTweet.org

You do have to commit to 3 liters (4 bottles' worth) in a go, but malbec is a versatile varietal, and for $15.50 a box, it's hard to complain. Really, at $3.88/bottle, you can cook with if if you want. It tastes like blackberries, it's pretty soft and juicy. https://t.co/tkiEWdou3s — PolitiTweet.org

you've got yourself some really expensive vinegar by day 2. Boxes don't have this problem since the dispenser spout is on the bottom—you can pour as much or as little as you want at a time. I like some wine with dinner, but I rarely have more than half a glass, so this is great. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

are heavy to ship & therefore need more fuel, & they break. You can stack boxes. Since much of the #wine industry depends on international distribution, it's a huge problem. Bottles allow air in when you pull the cork, so you have to either pump out the air for leftovers, or — PolitiTweet.org

Wine is @NaturalOrigins #organic #malbec, $3.88/750ml ($15.50/box) from @Costco. Did you know you don't have to be a Costco member to buy alcohol? Also, if you drink #wine & you're not already using boxes, you should switch. It's much better for the planet because bottles… — PolitiTweet.org

Tomato soup is just my grandmother's recipe for tomato sauce, plus chicken stock, marjoram, rosemary, thyme, minced garlic, oregano, basil, s&p and a good splash of heavy cream at the last minute. Homemade cinnamon sugar donuts, leftover from breakfast this morning, for dessert! — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

There's no butter or browned butter flavor of course, but mayo works really well with grilled bread flavor regardless. Havarti cheese melts really well, but is subtle in flavor. I only use it for grilled cheese if I'm serving it with soup. On sale from @Costco for about $5/pound — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

Simple dinner tonight hits the spot. Grilled cheese with @AuntMillies country buttermilk bread, with a light spread of @Hellmanns on the outside instead of butter. Try it, it works! It spreads more evenly and doesn't scald so fast, before your cheese has had enough time to melt. https://t.co/PDCoptYPrA — PolitiTweet.org

@eugenegu I cook a lot, and I love it, but I also have decades of experience/knowledge that goes along with it. As part of my activism, I teach young people to cook. Often they live paycheck-2-p, can't afford pots/pans/knives/cutting board/instant read etc even if they knew how to use them — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@eugenegu A dozen donuts is absolutely a one way ticket to diabetes but it's also an entire day's worth of calories for a couple of dollars, if you wait until after 6p when they're half price. Because of historic redlining, this especially affects people of color. — PolitiTweet.org

@eugenegu Many millions of people live in food deserts, where there isn't really fresh produce or food that isn't fried within walking distance. If you don't have a car and have 3 jobs and you need breakfast on the way to work, you can't just tell someone "eat better." How? — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@eugenegu Fighting against junk food isn't fat shaming. But we must be careful to criticize the sugar, the cultural acceptance of pastries for breakfast etc, NOT judging someone's body. Skinny people shouldn't eat donuts except as a rare treat either. Also there is a class & race component — PolitiTweet.org

@BronwynAnn Depends. If you just need to book a flight you can do it yourself, there are plenty of apps that monitor prices across all the different 3rd party bookings. If you are planning a 2 week trip in a country where you don't know anyone they are worth their cost many times over — PolitiTweet.org

It's also the same reason we don't have #MedicareForAll and why tax-funded public school is K-12 instead of K-16 like it is everywhere else: If we already have healthcare and college, why the hell would we sign up for the military? Capitalists don't care, they just want profit. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

The gun & ammunition industries make HUGE amounts of money when racists are scared. That's why they push so hard for racist political candidates. They are also government contractors & they make even MORE money when these gun-cult kids sign up for the military and we go to war — PolitiTweet.org

But, it's DEFINITELY a racist, profit-motivated lie—intentional deceit, fraud to use Chief Justice Burger's label—by lobbyists and the special interests who fund them, to claim that the Second Amendment gives us the right to own guns as civilians, individually. It doesn't. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

Don't get me wrong. In a world where people of color can expect cops to murder them as a matter of course, I think individuals can & should know how to use a gun. If people want to form militias because racist cops refuse to protect them from racist civilians, more power to them. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

The #SecondAmendment reads, "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." If you aren't a militia member with regulations, this DOES NOT apply to you. WELL REGULATED. MILITIA. — PolitiTweet.org
