We're taught to revere the judicial system, to treat conviction & accusation as equal.

but, doesn't that just silence the voices of those wrongly accused?

But who wants to admit that? Who wants to talk about social workers being called on you.....after your child broke their arm AT SCHOOL, claiming you did it & secretly sent them to school with a broken arm - despite witnesses at the school seeing the injury happen?

I wonder what the statistics are on parents of medically fragile kids being accused of Munchausen are.

In my case it was complicated by the fact that my exhusband's first wife ACTUALLY HAD IT. In her case, she hurt their child. In mine, my child was actually dying.

It's definitely beyond eczema (which perimenopause has made part of my daily life) - the torn skin & lack of wound care is concerning. That's how you get an infection & right there with the collar rubbing on it all day? Oof.

Credit where it’s due, nice edit @60minutes.bsky.social

But, I mean, I spent half my childhood in therapists offices being trained how to sound like them....it has come in handy for undercover work though.

I can start a sentence with Dude & end it with y'all.

Because I had a solid year of speech therapy in Asheville, NC in the late 70's, I have this habit of adopting twangy accents accidentally. Luckily, in this case, Kyra can't hear me.

I have to warn people who have thick accents that I'm prone to mimicry. Unintentional & rather cringe

When “law and order” quietly turns into “supply and demand.” And the supply is human beings.

We live in the weirdest timeline.

But, like, at least I had a head's up from the producers that it was happening. I had no idea this case had made the news enough to inspire writers. I thought we'd kept it out of the public eye.

How's this for jarring & surreal? I'm finally getting around to watching The Closer with Kyra Sedgwick & this episode.......I know the case it's based on. I knew the victim, personally. We're talking, I know her social security #.

Then again, there's a documentary up for an Oscar about us too.

I keep forgetting to look for brain injury support groups......I think the being a natural blonde thing isnt helping.

Will no one rid us of this troublesome......

Christian nationalism runs on shame.

If women, queer folks, disabled folks stop apologizing for existing, the whole structure shakes.

That’s the backlash.

Public safety depends on trust. Trust depends on visibility.

If you’re exercising your constitutional rights, you shouldn’t be targeted for it. Period.

The Oregon House agreed. Chaichi, Chotzen, Andersen, Javadi & Trần led the charge.

"You're the one that had a "How to be a Pimp" book on your dashboard when these kids were young, this one's on you." is a strange thing to say out loud.

His response? "When you find my book, give it to me."

FACT SHEET: Trump’s War on the Free Press Escalates with Latest Attacks — Not Above the Law Coalition Since taking office in January 2025, Trump has turned years of attacking journalists as “enemies of the people” and condemning news outlets as “corrupt and illegal” into concrete government action,...

You don’t have to love the media to understand why this matters. No accountability = unchecked power. Details: https://loom.ly/AvfBhNQ

If Shonda Rhimes kills off Lady Danbury, we ride at dawn.

Colin Bridgerton is a dumbass of the first order.

Oh, look, now I have more proof that I literally cannot afford to be disabled. Nor can I afford the expense for the things I need because of it.

This is cruelty and pain and ableism all rolled into a nightmare for patients.

This also seems illegal

This is not about your district. This is about the rules for the entire state.

Everyone gets a say right now.
