Last month, I underwent explorative laparoscopic surgery due to constant pain r/t cramping, concentrated in my back.

I always thought it was #endometriosis & I finally have confirmation of it.

Never stop advocating for yourself!

My journey was over 10yrs for diagnosis. The average is 7-10 yrs!

I know there isn’t much coverage on what’s going on in DC right now, so I’m gonna share things as they come up in my feed.

Here’s a video from Reddit:

Imagine what this woman and her family went through. All for what?

Kilauea is going absolutely crazy right now with episode 23 of the eruption. USGS live stream here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bqmp...

Brilliant idea! Next they’ll invent seatbelts and call them “freedom straps.”

This is truly sickening

Hurricane season starts June 1 and if you live in a Gulf state, you need to watch this. It’s worse than you might think.

The few employees still left at FEMA admit: they are not prepared. Not enough staff. Not enough supplies. Not enough leadership. Plan accordingly.

My trusty fabric shears are good for genuinely everything

Kilauea is at it once again, with incredible lava fountains having just resumed.

I love this movie so much!!!!! It makes me cry every time just with the beauty of it all

My first volcano was last year in Iceland 🥹 I was quite far but I still feel sheer exhilaration just thinking of it & it reignited a different love for life and earth from childhood 💗🌋

4 yrs ago today, I witnessed a volcanic eruption for the first time, close enough to feel the intense warmth of the Earth's creation on my skin. It literally changed my life. I may spend the rest of my life seeking an experience as powerful as this and never find it, and that's okay.

Wowwww this is magnificent 🥹

The sun is setting and the fountain is a bit less powerful, but still a fantastic show. They've recently zoomed in.

A CASE STUDY- that no one wanted to experience

If you want to know what cutting Medicaid does to rural America—look at Mississippi.

Their Republican governor refused to expand Medicaid. Now over half their rural hospitals are at risk of shutting down and many already have.

EVERYONE: if they have no warrant, they have no right to enter your space. Don’t let them! Be brave and protect our brothers and sisters.

This is what the start of an economic collapse looks like.

Nothing to see here. Just @emilyjaynef.bsky.social being forcibly removed from NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall tonight for having the temerity to act like a citizen of the United States. Hero.

Omg I did the same in Iceland for a volcano but just with some random people from my hostel!!! It was so fun!!

A spiral galaxy seen at a skewed angle. Its center is a bright spot radiating light. A thick, stormy disk of material surrounds this bright center, with swirling strands of dark dust and bright spots of star formation strewn through the disk. A large spiral arm extends from the disk toward the viewer. Some foreground stars are visible atop the galaxy.

Dark brown pillars rise from the bottom to the top of the image, ending in three points. The background is opaque, set off in yellow and green toward the bottom and blue and purple at the top. A handful of stars of various sizes appear.

An area of deep space with thousands of galaxies in various shapes and sizes on a black background. A few gold-colored galaxies are bunched closely together in the center. A large, translucent purple cloud lies over the galaxies, thickest across the center where the gold galaxies sit, and fainter up to the right. This shows where X-rays are emitted by hot gas in the group of galaxies.

A star cluster is shown inside a large nebula of many-coloured gas and dust. The material forms dark ridges and peaks of gas and dust surrounding the cluster, lit on the inner side, while layers of diffuse, translucent clouds blanket over them. Around and within the gas, a huge number of distant galaxies can be seen, some quite large, as well as a few stars nearer to us which are very large and bright.

HAPPY NATIONAL SPACE DAY!!!!
