Medicaid covers...

-40% of births nationwide
-50% of kids with special needs
-72 million people in total

Remember this as Republicans move to gut the program to finance tax cuts that will overwhelmingly go to the richest 1% of Americans. 

"Party of family values."

Not my home, but I know my way around.

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

That is tragic, and explains why she looked like a mother begging her kids to behave. Do we know what started the light pole climbing tradition?

🤣🤣 Some levity. Also someone please explain to me the lore of Philadelphians and light poles. It's always the light poles.

I’ve got the morning shift. This guy is dangerous and unfit to serve and I’m about to explain why. Tune in: www.senate.gov/legislative/...

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

The series took a few episodes to grow on me, but I really enjoyed it and was excited to see where it went. If any Star Wars series deserves a second season it's the Acolyte. #renewtheacolyte

Excellent post

I mean this one specifically fought space fas.cists, so let's go.

Just finished Onyx Storm. My initial thoughts "WTF"

I thoroughly enjoyed the book, I read 37 chapters today... after trying to not read it all in one sitting. But these endings, and now I gotta wait who knows how long for maybe resolution, probably not because Rebecca enjoys our suffering too much.

So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration.

Big mistake. Huge.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

I don’t know if this will help anyone but Sauron came back a a LOT of times before he was finally defeated

This is how you do it...

I've been reading a chapter and going to do something else all day. I don't want to finish it and then have to wait 84 years for the next installment. I read Iron Flame in a day and then had massive withdrawal 🤣

Trying really hard not to speed read this book, but so much is happening in every chapter so far.

I used to be an avid reader when I was young. I stopped reading about midway through college, because life, I guess. Then I picked up Fourth Wing, and it's what reignited my love of reading. Do you have a series that did that for you?

I'm beginning to wean myself from tiktok. I privated my account today, and removed the app from my Home Screen. I may try out this BlueSky video feature, but have we found a CapCut replacement yet?

My kiddo is sick today, so I'm trying to get through as much of Onyx Storm as possible.

Her prayer/speech made me briefly consider rejoining the church. But then I remember I live in the south. She is so brave, and a true woman of God. I just wish more were like her.

For all the flak George Lucas gets for his writing, pretty hard to deny the "so this is how liberty dies" line is an unfortunately spot on banger.

The idea that a president can issue an executive order that overrides Congress, while it may be appealing to everyone who wants TikTok back and agrees that the TikTok ban is a first amendment violation, is actually illegal dictator shit

The TikTok ban and reinstatement was straight up a Palpatine plot from the clone wars lmfao

Frank Zappa predicting the future in 1986.
That future being today, in #America
