Last night with no warning, RFK Jr. cancelled up to $2 billion in funding for mental health and substance abuse research and programs administered through SAMHSA. He and his minions did so because “they no longer believe the defunded programs align with the Trump administration's priorities”.

HR4512 is the "Trans Mice act"- it attempts to ban research which might make animals "transgender" Millions of American can't get health insurance beginning on Jan 1. One in five kids lives with food insecurity. Homelessness is spiking. But sure, let's worry about trans mice. This is 'merica.

jfc. they are harassing companies who sell chest binders. Everyone in the GOP and the 3 dems who voted to end trans care can please choke on a bag of donkey assholes.

It's only 'effective' if the goal is a legislative strategy for banning pornography. According to conservatives themselves, "shutting down porn sites" is exactly the goal of these age verification laws. theintercept.com/2024/08/16/p...

so like, i’m aware that it’s not a done deal that all dems vote no on this bill flooding folks’ offices with calls tomorrow is probably a good idea if you care about the trans folks in your life

My partner has now classified some of my areas of knowledge as "Lesbian Knowledge" as in. . Grey water systems. Lesbian Knowledge!!! Composting. Lesbian Knowledge! Janelle Monae "The Age of Pleasure." Lesbian Knowledge! do with that as you will.

When people think about patient safety, hospitals usually come to mind first. But most healthcare is delivered in the community—and from the patient perspective, almost all of that relies on retail pharmacies. We can’t have safe care without safe pharmacies. #QISky

Going through notes from my editor for current wip. She was so light handed compared w/ others I've worked with, I sent a note asking if she was holding back until she knew how I responded to critique. Maybe I'm too beat up from academia & politics, maybe im getting better at this writing thing.

Really? Another "you could die, have a stroke, and more but here's 500 words on how-to" article??? Neurological research shows choking (blood choke, neck pressure, suffocation) is never marginally safe. If you want to do breath play, there are ways which don't involve what this article recommends

Family chat about yesterday's storm here got a bit awkward with my mom's use of emojis.
