60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life.

Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever.

Our problem isn't a lack of resources.

Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

I only have need for the free version; since I can only see 3 months out, I have the April and May outlooks for my area (KC). Is there a way to find the predictions for Feb & March?

(Planning a girls soccer season & would love to forego reserving early turf field$ if grass will be dry & thawed!) ⚽

I might have to adapt this curriculum for a teen homeschool class next year!

Obviously... This has been my "how many calls the #KCfootballteam does NOT get handed to them" thread

#SuperBowl bound!!

On Pacheco's #1stDown catch, he actually came down in bounds, and was pushed out afterwards. Clock should have kept going.

Oh hai. We don't need to #review the play to determine whether #Buf maintained possession on the sneak for 1st down. We'll just assume Josh Allen didn't drop it.

Aaaand the 3Q #FalseStart call went against #KC (clearly should have been #offside or #encroachment against #Buf) essentially ended with a KC punt.

Huh. Offside call against KC on the Buffalo extra point lets #Buf go for 2.

Oh look, dpi call against KC's Watson.

2nd #KC drive, let us please note that there was NOT a dpi call against #Buf on the pass play to Hollywood Brown. #BUFKC #KCvsEverybody

My friend and Pulitzer Prize winning colleague Ann Telnaes quit the Washington Post in protest of the killing of a proposed cartoon criticizing the publisher and his billionaire buds. Here's my tribute to Ann.

Kind of... Yeah. 🤷🏼‍♀️👍🏼

This moment in Bluesky is a great example of how joy itself can be defiance and resistance.

We are just hanging out, shitposting, being silly, happy, and normal. It is being treated as if it is transgressive, opting out of the endless negativity. Because in a way, it is.

Joy is my favorite weapon.

A Third Woman Died Under Texas’ Abortion Ban. Doctors Are Avoiding D&Cs and Reaching for Riskier Miscarriage Treatments. Thirty-five-year-old Porsha Ngumezi’s case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.

NEW: Porsha Ngumezi is the fifth case we've reported on in which a woman died after not receiving a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent in time, or at all.

Her case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.

Welcome!! Wish my #KCCurrent were playing tomorrow, but we're happy to share our fabulous stadium with the rest of the NWSL! Enjoy #KCMO !! 🩵❤️⚽🎆🎇

#EpilepsyAwarenessMonth 💜

My 9y son's seizures are primarily nocturnal myoclonic and clonic. I believe they usually lead into focal aware seizures before subsiding. <-- That type hasn't been caught on EEG yet.

Needless to say, he's exhausted much of the time but often afraid to go to sleep. 💔💜

Leak the report. Pass it on.

What the...? 🤦🏼‍♀️

I'm so sorry.

And also not surprised.
