I have smacked my head on the wall when I bent over to pick something up off the floor… more than once.

Friendly reminder to donate to diaper banks in addition to food pantries in the coming weeks when SNAP is unavailable because children are running the government. Diaper banks provide formula as well, which is crazy expensive. Even $5 helps!

Apologies, I was just being grouchy. You didn’t deserve that. I hope you had a good evening. ❀️

I’m starting to wonder why they aren’t using the Epstein files to their advantage more. If they give in to the GOP demands and swear in the new house member, can’t they then use putting off that vote to release the files as leverage?

No one can really sign on to General strikes here. We would lose our jobs and health insurance.

Blaming Tylenol for autism is just another symptom of the Trump admin’s hatred of women. Not only is that the *only* OTC pain medicine pregnant women can take in the US, but it puts the β€œblame” on them for something that is still unnecessarily stigmatized.

AI data centers would need millions of gallons of North Carolina’s water supply a day A single AI data center could use as much water as a small town, raising questions in North Carolina about growth, climate resilience and resource planning.

Data centers are a problem!!!! Please consider lowering your (yes, even you!) AI and smart phone usage! We don’t have ANY wiggle room with climate stuff like this!

Had to get a prescription first though. NC is requiring everyone of all ages and all health conditions to get prescription sent in to the pharmacy before they’ll give it to you.

Data centers consume massive amounts of water – companies rarely tell the public exactly how much In 2024, one data center in Iowa consumed 1 billion gallons of water, enough to supply all the state’s residences with water for five days.

Your water bill is going to spike, too.

Friendly reminder that there are actually tons of small local international grocery stores in the US. Just because they’re not targeting Western European decent individuals doesn’t mean they don’t exist.

β€˜We the People’ includes all Americans – but July 4 is a reminder that democracy remains a work in progress The meaning of the Constitution’s preamble, which begins with the words β€˜We the People,’ has evolved over time as voting rights have expanded.

The #FourthofJuly is a reminder that democracy is a work in progress πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

The country is not the president. It’s not Congress or SCOTUS. It’s the people who care enough to stand up and help their neighbors. Stop just shrugging and say we suck. Go out and be part of your community!

I hate the amount of privilege that other people talk about this with. Plus nowhere is good right now. Europe is creeping up on WW3, Australia and China keep fighting, and Canada is fighting with India and the US. People don’t understand it’s bad everywhere.
