KEEP CATS SAFE—there is clear proof of cat-human household transmission of bird flu. CDC scientists posted the data—but suddenly deleted soon afterwards. CDC is being blatantly muzzled.

I am deleting instagram and deactivating Facebook. I did not have Threads. I will miss some community and support groups on Facebook. But I am hoping I just enjoy the extra time.

I love how Flipboard is set up but hate how much data they collect and track (I know most places are tracking you but trying my best to limit). Anyone have an alternative to flipboard that is more private? Besides the readers listed. TY

another woman is dead because doctors refused to give her standard medical care AFTER SHE ALREADY MISCARRIED. abortion bans are killing women even if they don’t need one. porsha ngumezi should be alive.

I am enjoying all the #cats #catsofbluesky pictures.
