Don’t send me an unsolicited picture of your peewee cocktapus unless you want me to…
A: find your mom’s Facebook
B: find a picture she uploaded of you reminiscing about what a nice young man you were
C: badly photoshop that into a locket
D: convince you I’m your daughter.
Happy Father’s Day Daddy.
Every family celebrates Father’s Day differently. I celebrate by convincing men the woman that they just sent unsolicited penile photography to is their daughter.
I went to school with Alex Pretti, one of the people recently shot by ICE. On my personal Facebook, I wrote a post calling him a hero.
The right-wing men arrived, filling my inbox with cruel hatred.
Understand that I mean truly cruel. If that will harm you, please do not read this post.
I drove my daughter and her friends to Fright Fest, and while I was half-lost in my audiobook, I noticed their conversation turn to Charlie Kirk. My daughter said she hopes he’s looking up at us right now. 🥹 Sometimes parenting pays off in the strangest, most satisfying ways. #ProudMomMoment
When my employer learns that I “celebrated” murder with eloquence, daring to raise my voice against the violence of guns, my ruin will be certain. 😔
They will say “shoplifting” because it sounds better than saying police murdered a baby over poverty and a box of diapers in a country where the current administration has made racist men feel righteous for valuing merchandise more than the Black life beside it.
I found 6 women who said they were “moderates” & did not align with any political party. I asked them if they would be willing to take a quiz on whether quotes about reproduction came from the 19th century or now.
To convince them to spend time talking to me, I told them I was doing it for a class.
In today’s politics, the message is often clearest when it’s cloaked. Let’s talk dog whistles.
Hi l'm Brooke and I tell feminist, working class and Igbtq history to ʎuɹoh men. They hate it!

When I’m not telling men history, I enjoy trolling men, scammers & MLM boss babes in other delightful (for me) ways.

Happy Nuclear Family Month to the parents whose strongest family tradition is raising children who will never speak to them again.
Many children spent Mother’s Day without their moms because of ICE. I snuck into a right-wing mom group chat and made that their problem.
If you're single this Valentine's Day, just know you're not alone. There are always over a million little mites on your skin.
1/6 If violence is allowed from men in uniforms, their badges aren’t protection. They’re a warning.
If men can march under the guise of law to cage, to deport, to disappear human beings,
then violence from the people should not just be tolerated,
it should be understood as survival.
This post is for everyone ICE has harmed.
In right-wing groups they cheer these murders. They write more. They write millions more. They write it like a prayer.
I decided to ask one woman what it would feel like if the body they were celebrating belonged to her own child.
Reminder that even in 1776, people were calling out the Founding Fathers for preaching independence while enslaving people.
Well someone had to remind your MAGA fathers why they didn’t hear from you on Father’s Day. 😏
