"Oh we just wanted to make sure she was safe."

Don't buy it. This is dangerous.

Both!

To my UK loves, protect your uterus bearing people. This is horrifying.

For over half a century, the National Weather Service has operated 24/7. But after the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency pushed to shrink the federal workforce, that’s no longer possible in parts of the country.

Hey, if you struggle with self-image/body issues like I do, saying out loud “Aging is a privilege that not everyone gets to have” helps me recenter myself and releases those negative thought gremlins when I hate what I see in the mirror.

Hope this helps someone else the way it helps me. 🫶🏻

“Eugenics isn’t just about eradicating the lesser people like myself, like people with disabilities, it’s about attaching disability to marginalized communities in order to slate them for eradication.”

Fantastic crash course in eugenics, ableism & anti-blackness from @imanibarbarin.bsky.social

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

If you’re changing the definition of human rights, it means you plan on violating people’s human rights.

Can it be possible that they have started moving even FASTER than they did at first? This is getting more and more horrifying. And disgusting that they are using Jews as shields to justify shutting down our freedom to protest in this country.

"War on Drugs" combined with "War on Terror"--are you starting to understand that we've been building up to this for decades? Why many of us were unsurprised that this Regime has risen to power?

Trump administration considers plan to eliminate CDC's HIV prevention division If the administration does move forward with the plan, the CDC’s HIV prevention work could move over to another department under HHS.

Eliminating the CDC’s HIV prevention division would be a disaster. Significantly less resources, a rise in HIV cases, more babies born with the virus, and countless lives lost.

Ah, we are creating the H*tler Youth by starting with the children on military bases. Cool, cool.

I think a lot of people thought our descent into fascism would be slower.

Um, hi, this is called retaliation against a federal judge or officer, which is illegal. They investigated you because you broke the law. They are allowed to do that. Do not fall for his rhetoric or this democracy will fall with you.

Well, if my life chills out a little, I'm joining an election campaign next year. Both my senators betrayed my trust and this country. I'll be backing someone with a spine for midterms.

I am switching from Wordpress to Substack to try to grow an actual audience. Follow me for my attempt at daily poetry!

As my partner says, "I work full time just to stay alive." They literally cannot have a job because their disability requires so much work daily that there isn't even a ton left to spend on family and hobbies. UBI should be standard and disabled folks should get SS ON TOP of that.

If your rep voted in favor of censoring Rep Green, find a replacement and join their campaign. Those capitulating to the Nazis are choosing to become Nazis. History won't be able to tell the difference and neither should we.

TIL that people on bluesky apparently really love surveillance cameras as long as they are marketed as "traffic cameras" and are incapable of thinking even one step ahead about how law enforcement might use (already uses) such cameras for purposes other than catching speeders

Yeah, don't put on those rose colored glasses about past president actions. Just because they didn't usher in fascism doesn't mean their hands weren't covered in blood.

Zelensky's take-down of Brian Glenn over the suit question is underrated.

"Maybe I'll get one after the war. Better than yours. Maybe cheaper."

Low-key told the man he overpaid for a cheap suit.

Don't argue with comedians. They'll destroy you.

In MT they want to revise the definitions of child abuse to exclude a parent raising their child as their assigned sex at birth. This goes against the American Psychological Ass. guidance and findings that trans mental/health care are life saving and denying that care should be considered abusive.

Israel cuts off Gaza aid to pressure Hamas to accept new ceasefire proposal The prime minister's office did not elaborate on the decision but warned of “additional consequences” if Hamas does not accept what Israel says is a U.S. proposal for an extension of the ceasefire.

"An Israeli official...said the decision to suspend aid was made in coordination with the Trump administration.

...Hundreds of aid trucks have entered Gaza daily since the ceasefire began on Jan 19, and it was unclear what the immediate impact of the aid cutoff would be."
