This generational trauma ICE is inflicting will reverberate for longer than we realize, in ways we can only begin to imagine.

but imagine the therapy bills your child will have if they realize they got named by a bargain namer ;-)

Good #caturday morning everybody!! I slept in and I am not sorry.

this is the only purpose of prohibitionist drug law.

interesting idea about applying harm reduction to journalism itself.....

p.s. here's how to get naloxone (narcan) for free if needed www.getnaloxonenow.org#getnaloxone

Trump no longer distancing himself from Project 2025 as he uses shutdown to further pursue its goals President Donald Trump is now openly embracing the conservative blueprint he desperately tried to distance himself from during the 2024 campaign.

It's almost as though all he did last year was brazenly lie, and it should have always been covered as brazen lying. apnews.com/article/trum...

We don’t know the real number of Nebraskans dying from drugs. It’s costing us. - Flatwater Free Press Every year, Nebraska undercounts overdoses, say state officials, public health experts, on-the-ground treatment workers and a new Flatwater Free Press analysis. Laws and money are impacted. And lives ...

If your state has a suspiciously low overdose death rate, check it out! (also, know the signs: if someone's snoring weirdly, breathing infrequently, looks blue on skin or nails... USE Narcan! & keep it in every first aid kit so it's there) [excellent piece!] flatwaterfreepress.org/we-dont-know...

Washington Post push alert: Breaking News The Trump administration quietly approved a new abortion drug, infuriating the right

No they fucking didn’t—they said another manufacturer can make generic mifepristone, the same drug that’s been on the market for 25 years

Seven years ago today, Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi was tortured, murdered and then dismembered. And any so-called comedian who can't stand up tonight in Riyadh and do ten minutes on that kind of hijinx and horseplay just isn't worth the Saudi blood money he's being paid.

None of us should feel exempt or invulnerable, because if they can do this to our neighbors, they can come for us, too. That said, those of us who are not presently among those being targeted should not focus on our own fear and vulnerability. We should support those in the immediate path of harm.

I need a bot to just create quote posts with the tagline "Is this even legal?"..... because, really, it can't be....

journalists who bought this really need to consider why they weren't more skeptical. whatever happened to "if your mother says she loves you, check it out" from j-school? & why do so many accept government statements at face value like "national guard to cities for crime" when clearly in bad faith?

i love this!!!

this is basically portland's version of a haka

The Trump administration’s Soviet approach to autism policy A strange and largely forgotten U.S. delegation to the USSR in 1963 offers lessons about autism, diagnosis, and politics, writes Ari Ne’eman.

"Even as he wraps himself in his family’s storied history, [RFK Jr.] seems determined to make himself an accomplice in wiping their greatest achievements from the earth." Ari Ne'eman on "The Trump administration’s Soviet approach to autism policy":

what the hell is up with that guy's proportions? obv. AI, but really weird....

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

new prosocial peer group?

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

We are truly bipartisan: sometimes we praise Republicans, but other times, we might criticize Democrats. How can you say we only favor one side?
