  • Come on NPR

    Ayesha is the worst. She doesn’t use proper English. Her voice is sing songy. The twang is beyond irritating I expect a lot more from NPR.

  • Thank UpFirst for celebrating and defending abortion

    Thank you! We must continue the fight against those who seek to control the bodies of birthing-people. We should protect reproductive rights at least to the point of cutting the umbilical chord. We can’t give in to the false narratives of patriarchal bigots. As long as it’s connected to our body, it’s our body. Thank you UpFirst!

  • New EPA Rules

    I can’t even remember anything about the story. That cutesy Woopsie up-and-down little girl voice was so irritating. There is no place for this kind of drama in News. Are you serious or is this a cartoon? The Voice is also a disgrace to women. If you want to be serious, you need to get rid of this person.
