Kaiser Permanente โ€œadvantageโ€ is ok for regular PCP care for my 88 year old MIL, but she fell, broke bones, needs PT & OT that Medicare is willing to pay for a bit longer, but they want to kick her out of the rehab facility early. This is bananas.

there's a weird feedback loop where the media's reaction to kirk's death pushes you to speak more ill of the dead than you otherwise would because it's the only reasonable response to the simpering praise they're heaping on him

I encourage every hip hop artist to go to this page and see if your music is being used on any of these videos, and if you agree with the way your music is being used.

Itโ€™s hard to market right now. I feel like Iโ€™m stopping firemen on their way into a flaming building going โ€œhey, want to read this romance?โ€ Ugh.

BREAKING: An Illinois county removed a massive Ten Commandments monument from government property after we sued.

This is a victory for religious freedom.

The fact that we have to use social media to โ€œboostโ€ horrifying stories of criminal mistreatment by courts or law enforcement, or of authorities ignoring their duties and ethics is Black Mirror level United States dystopia we have gotten very used to as a norm.

They have no morals. They say lies as if they were truth until people believe them. They donโ€™t know shame. Itโ€™s difficult to win a war with people who have no honor at all.

They know itโ€™s a lie. They lie all the time and say what they want people to believe. If they say it enough A LOT of people accept it. Like millions. Itโ€™s actually really fucking creepy how many people it works on. Trump is expecting his Epstein lies to work too and they probably will.

It doesnโ€™t do any good to point out the nauseatingly blatant hypocrisy that โ€œChristianโ€ โ€œRepublicansโ€ display daily. They donโ€™t know shame. Being hypocritical is not an insult to them. They are willing to accept human sex trafficking to forward their agenda.

The end of an era - but we did it on the grandest scale! I owe a lot to @hlbrookswrites.bsky.social as she has been instrumental in putting me on a direct path to wear I am today in my drag career. #thewritewomenbookfest was the first place I ever did @dragstoryhour.bsky.social and 1/2

ICE now has a bigger budget that the Russian military. And theyโ€™re in the middle of an invasion of another country.

I donโ€™t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make whatโ€™s happening now look like childโ€™s play. And people are disappearing.

I'm already seeing centrists and leftists sniping at each other but the blame for this is 100% on the Republicans. This is what they do with power and it is imperative that we work together to keep them as far from it as possible, forever.

When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.

We now know why he was obsessively talking about Alcatraz a couple months back. He was warming his cult up to the idea of more dehumanizing behavior.

In 80 seconds, AOC has completely dismantled the #BigUglyBill.

Dems should turn this into a prime time campaign ad NOW.

I went to the House Floor to stop the cuts to SNAP and Medicaid.

Republicans blocked itโ€”wouldnโ€™t even consider it.

So letโ€™s be clear: they know exactly what this bill will do. And they do. not. care.
