I was genuinely shocked when I found out people’s SNAP benefits were being stolen. I mean—how?! These are government-issued benefits meant to help families eat and survive, and yet somehow, they’re ending up in the wrong hands? I’m still trying to wrap my head around how this could even happen.

I do remember hearing a story a while ago about people inside the system—actual government employees—stealing from the very folks they were supposed to be helping. But that was years ago, and I guess I naively thought it was a one-off or that things had changed.

TEXAS WANTS TO DEFINE WHAT MAKES A WOMAN- AGREE OR DISAGREE, THIS DEBATE ISN’T GOING AWAY. LET’S TALK ABOUT IT.

In this article, I dive into the debate over Texas House Bill 229, which seeks to define sex strictly based on biology. While I personally believe in two genders, I explore the complexities of this issue and why it’s not as simple as it seems. This conversation isn’t just political — it’s personal.

Why Even Give a Law If You Can Opt Out? The Confusing Reality of STAAR Testing

If we’re letting people opt out of basic education standards for vague ‘moral’ or ‘religious’ reasons, what’s next? Are we going to let surgeons skip anatomy tests because they ‘morally disagree’ with cadaver dissection? Are we going to let pilots skip flight exams because they ‘feel stressed’ about it? Come on. Nobody’s crying ‘religious freedom’ when it comes time to take professional licensing exams that protect real lives. We shouldn’t be doing it for kids’ basic education either.
