Can you imagine having an intelligent, compassionate human in the WH after this hellscape?

He is speaking present tense. Appreciate your sentiment but Pritzker is extraordinarily erudite, he’s correct.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

"protests don't work" says country with no healthcare, daily gun massacres, degrading infrastructure, massive corruption, and a felon for a president.

In 1979, Jimmy Carter had solar panels installed at the White House.

Ronald Reagan had them removed.

We may be able to trace back the current "Do Harmful Things if it Trolls the Libs" Republicanism to Reagan removing those panels the far more forward thinking Carter had installed.

How do you do that thing where you permanently mute X like garbage on Bluesky? Because I found some.

No, but I GAVE many a fancy tinned fish to others…

She Says Doctors Ignored Her Concerns About Her Pregnancy. For Many Black Women, It’s a Familiar Story. Black women in America are more than twice as likely as white women to have a stillbirth.

Black women in America are more than twice as likely as white women to have a stillbirth. Getting physicians to take their concerns seriously is one reason for this disparity, they say: “If you’re a Black woman, you get dismissed.”

I love how Denmark isn’t taking any shit from Donald Trump. 🇩🇰 🤣

Where’s his perp walk?

I kind of doubt the right is much of a book buying/reading demographic anyway.

Look bringing back polio sounds bad. But it’s a small price to pay to get rid of pronouns in email signatures and black women in star wars.

This is yet another example of how women’s healthcare is not consistent in this country. It’s bizarrely cruel that a woman in Missouri doesn’t have the same rights as a woman in NYS. #abortionishealthcare

Speaking of #healthinsurance. #mammograms are covered under the ACA. But women w/ dense breast tissue require an ultrasound to detect cancer. So in some states, women have to pay out of pocket just because they have dense breast tissue—bc insurers view them as “diagnostic” not preventative.

It sounds like she’s blaming it on UHC. 🍎 🍊

I’m an American and I apologize for the assholes in power here. Trust me, most of us do not want this.

RFK Jr’s former brother in law. Good lord.

It’s clear that msm, the NYPD, the constitution, thd DOE, the IRS, and pretty much every other US system is and always has been in place to protect the rich at all costs.

No one cares what your take is.

Charlotte Bennett, a young employee who was found to have been harassed by Andrew Cuomo, has dropped her lawsuit against him after he used the legal proceedings to retaliate against her, including public smearing of her sexual history & court orders for her gynecological records.

Trump thinks that elections aren't already based exclusively on the Electoral College.

It's the dementia.

This is barbaric. @margaretatwood.bsky.social

Haha!

NYPD’s healthcare insurer is Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. The same one that announced recently that they were only going to partially cover anesthesia if the procedures take long.

My library does this! #silentbookclub

Children Worked Dangerous Shifts at Iowa Slaughterhouse, Inquiry Finds Qvest Sanitation was ordered to pay nearly $172,000 after the Labor Department found it had employed 11 children to clean equipment on overnight shifts at a pork processing plant in Sioux City, Iowa.

You can get sent to jail for stealing toilet paper but if you hire a dozen children to work overnight shifts at your slaughter house your company pays a fine
