BREAKING: Today, we're suing. Federal forces in the Chicago area are brutally suppressing free speech with tear gas, rubber bullets, and flash grenades. Journalists, clergy, and demonstrators have been attacked for peacefully protesting against the government. This is an unconstitutional assault.

#pwME #pwLC Does anyone have experience with rib pressure? It’s not pain but it’s v uncomfortable and disrupts sleep. Feels like ribs are out of alignment & too big for my body (just on right side). What is this? Looking online & seems in ballpark of MS hug. #LongCovid, the gift that keeps giving

By nychealthy @nychealthy.bsky.social The best way to prevent Long COVID is to prevent getting COVID-19 or getting it multiple times. That means staying up to date with COVID-19 vaccines and wearing a well-fitting mask, especially when indoors among crowds. Learn more: www.nyc.gov/site/doh/cov...

It was standing room only at today's Living with Long Covid exhibit at the @museumofvan.bsky.social! I was moved to tears by some of the personal stories on display. Such a great event

If you're an alumnus of one of the universities Trump has threatened unless they submit to his authoritarian "compact" ( Arizona, Brown, Dartmouth, MIT, Penn, USC, Texas, Vanderbilt, and UVA), sign this petition to university presidents and trustees.

No President gets to dictate what schools teach. No college should be forced to support any political agenda or risk losing funding for cancer research.   It’s well past time for Republicans to join us—grow a spine—and oppose this latest illegal action to control our schools.

Deploying our superb armed forces on American soil, in peacetime, against Americans, is an illegal and unspeakable perversion of our men and women in uniform. Military rule will bring profound and lasting harm to all of us. Conservative and Liberal Americans reject it. We the people reject it.

BREAKING: WE WON!!! 💥 💥 💥 Federal Judge William G. Young ruled today in our lawsuit against the Trump administration that the policy of arresting, detaining, & deporting noncitizen students & faculty members for their pro-Palestinian advocacy violates the 1st Amendment. Full ruling here:

JUST NOW AT THE UN…

Mario Guevara faces imminent deportation after being detained by ICE for over 100 days. His crime? Livestreaming a “No Kings” protest. If you were outraged about Jimmy Kimmel, you should be more outraged about Guevara. It’s time to #FreeMario now!

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

Every infection of Covid-19 is life-threatening. Every infection of Covid-19 has the potential to cause serious illness and early mortality. Every infection of Covid-19 degrades immunity, making further infections more likely. Every infection of Covid-19 results in lasting damage. #COVID19

Oooooo, you know what today is? Today is a GREAT day to wear a respirator mask while in public, to avoid getting and spreading covid.

I just hate the way our society views the homeless. I’ve been homeless before and that shit ain’t easy to get out of. Ppl aren’t on the street bc they want to be. They’re not less human than you. And you could easily find yourself out there in today’s world. Have some compassion.

Orwell would also remind us: don’t let outrage be your only politics. Go to hospitals, foodbanks, union meetings, refugee hostels. Real solidarity is built in the ordinary places where people live and struggle. Defend the small decencies that make life liveable.

truly insane how MAGA think that reading a single queer novel will trans their kids, but that actively training those same kids to worship guns from childhood runs no risk of violence, such that, when their kids DO become murderers, their first thought is "the transgenders must've caused this."

I’m so sick of being sick. People can’t understand the unrelenting nature of chronic illness. They think we can get “better” if we just try harder. The reality is you have good days and bad… but you’re sick every day. Exhausted. In pain. Battling. It can really wear a person down.

PSA: The fact that RFK Jr doesn’t believe that healthy children need the COVID19 booster doesn’t change the fact that previously healthy children are continuing to have devastating outcomes from COVID19 infections.

🍻 its the beer infusion system that makes this feel altogether too real 😵‍💫

Jeffrey Epstein had doctors prescribe birth control and sedatives to his victims. They also screened his victims for STDs. He had dentists work on their teeth. I’d like to know who these people are and why they have been protected.

This is what democracy looks like! A people united will never be defeated. We want federal forces out of DC NOW! #WeAreAllDC #FreeDC

#SaveHHS #FireRFKJr

CI fam: thank you to those of you who’ve already called and emailed your House representatives. If any of these folks are your representatives, please make sure you pressure them extra, because they co-sponsored the Epstein Transparency Act but haven’t signed the discharge petition. Ask them why!

Two more Republicans. That’s all we need to force a vote in the House on releasing the Epstein files. If you live in a GOP district, your representative needs to hear from you: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

WA Governor Bob Ferguson’s letter to Pam Bondi with ALT text:

Despite the FDA restricting COVID vaccine access, the science tells us that getting vaccinated is still important for everyone: 1️⃣ Anyone can develop serious and chronic illness from COVID 2️⃣ Vaccines reduce days lost due to sickness 3️⃣ Vaccines reduce transmission and protect others at higher risk

It’s official. September 6th. From all across this nation. We march in D.C. Join us.

Guys, I have a special & unusual request today. My cousin Sean is a union bus driver here in Los Angeles who was just FIRED in retaliation for saying he would not let masked ICE agents onto his bus to abduct riders. The fight is on to get his job back, you can help: actionnetwork.org/letters/send...

🚨 It’s the 20th anniversary of Katrina + FEMA workers are warning us: cuts + censorship are gutting the agency meant to keep us safe. Delayed disaster response = lives at risk. Sign the Katrina Declaration + demand Congress protect FEMA. 👉 www.standupforscience.net/fema-katrina-declaration

Society doesn’t see classism as a legitimate form of violence because people are taught that being poverty is moral failing, rather than it being systematic oppression. Poverty is traumatic and in order for rich people to thrive, a whole lot more barely survive.

Today is a day of national and international shame. This famine could have been prevented, if only our government treated Palestinians as human beings whose lives were worth saving. How can food be blocked yet arms still flow?

News Media: Why are kids still missing so much school? It's a mystery! Kids: We're sick. News Media: Anxiety? Kids: No, we're physically sick, all the time. News Media: Ok we're running another piece on anxiety and school avoidance!

50501 DC is focusing our efforts on helping those in our community who are most affected by the Trump Administration’s takeover of DC police and deploying of the National Guard. We are asking for people to help support organizations here in DC that are already on the ground - see profile.

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends: 1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration; 2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you; 3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.

Chronically ill people not constantly speaking about how terrible we feel does not mean that we are comfortable. We’re hiding it because most people don’t want to listen.

Trump’s mobilization of the National Guard, ICE, and FBI in D.C. has nothing to do with safety. In fact, violent crime has hit a 30-year low in D.C. It’s plain and simple—this is what authoritarians do. The Trump regime is attempting to instill fear, create propaganda, and consolidate control.
