If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

We're watching resegregation happen in real time. This is modern post-reconstruction policy that will further entrench white supremacy.

First day assembling zines, and we already have some folding experts *chefs kiss* impeccable technique

These men don’t need cabinet jobs they need therapy

Keep reminding folks of this.

In Nashville, an undocumented woman who was detained by ICE while pregnant had a stillbirth after allegedly being denied medical care in ICE custody. “I had him inside here for three days, in this Louisiana facility, my baby dead in my stomach," Iris Dayana Monterroso-Lemus said.

May every single human being on this planet be safe. May every single person be protected from harm. May we bring into being a time in which we are all free from those who do evil— together, speedily and in our days.

We live in a rogue and dangerous country. Do what you need to do to maintain your internal peace. Hold the core of your spirit. Pray for peace. Commit yourself to justice. And just rest.

An absolute legend.

It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

So important. This is America. Freedom, equality, democracy, human rights are not and never have been dictated by polling approval.

If we have to deal with this level of unhinged, could we at least get a lil sprinkle of George Santos?

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state Keep that same energy of support for her

If you’re Jewish, sign this. If you’re not, spread the word. Everyone should donate.

Really just an impeccable thread about something I am absolutely not interested in but also something I am very interested in (luxury watches, immigration). Zero notes.

Deploying Marines to Los Angeles but then they have to do the 5th street on-ramp onto the 110 southbound and get PTSD

even though LA is a sexy news story, neighbors have been protecting neighbors across the country all year and they will continue to. You have a community right outside your door. Care for it.

Bill Cassidy (R) at RFK Jr.’s confirmation hearing: “If confirmed, he will maintain the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) without changes”. Today, RFK Jr. fired every single member of ACIP. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

RFK Jr. has just removed every member of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). These members review vaccine data and make approval recommendations. This is completely horrifying and will likely delay vaccine approvals. RFK Jr. must be removed from office IMMEDIATELY.

“Without these hands the economy would not function.” Long live the workers + power to the people.

Los Angeles school worker shares frustration over parents having to leave their children’s graduation ceremony because ICE raided an elementary school’s graduation today

If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the Constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the Gl Rights Hotline. There is support, you don't have to go through with it. tel: 877-447-4487 Via @lascanner.bsky.social

Correct. This should be *THE* national story right now.

Every year on my birthday I spend a little time reflecting on what’s shifted in me over the past year. This morning, here’s what I’m noodling on:

It would be funnier if it wasn’t believable.

It’s me, hi.

We keep writing about this destruction without getting to the core of it. “White Americans who are racially resentful towards Blacks, hold negative views of immigrants, and believe that whites are being discriminated against are especially likely to hold anti-democratic beliefs.”

The ACA was cool because before the ACA EVERY SINGLE CHILD WITH CANCER hit their annual and lifetime limits almost immediately and were denied insurance for the rest of their lives and after the ACA that’s illegal.

99.4% of new drugs approved by the FDA are the product of NIH funded research. Remember this every time you see another headline on the NIH funding cuts. It will directly impact YOU. #ScienceNOTSilence

Un. Hinged. (Folks, check on your public health buddies. We’re not ok.)

Actually unhinged and terrifying, per usual.

Brown butter Nutella rainbow sprinkle hamantaschen fresh outta the oven. ✨

I’m looking daily for spots of goodness, of hope, of possibility. This is a beautiful read and reminder. “The answer is all of us.”

Anybody know what year of the week it is?

What the actual what. Criminalizing healthcare.

can't believe it's 2025 and i'm stressed about tariffs and measles, like am i a character in an american girl book

Got three generations of family and a bunch of friends bought in!

This whole country wants bad things for others more than they want good things for themselves.

My babe is on the way to grab cash right now so we can still get Thai food from our favorite spot. LFG.

Also: infectious disease docs TOLD US.

Something any of us can do! ❤️

Completely preventable child death is a special kind of heartbreak.

Yes yes yes. Incredible leadership we need now.

Just going to leave this here should it become useful to anyone…

Good morning. The dance, whatever that means to you, is worth fighting for. “During the darkest days of the AIDS crisis, we buried our friends in the morning, protested in the afternoon and danced all night. The dance kept us in the fight because it was the dance we were fighting for.

Loved seeing this coverage from @seattletimes-rss.bsky.social on our Best Starts child care worker wage boost pilot. It’s past time to talk about the role of government in supplementing these essential workers’ wages.

There’s a word for this - it’s racism.
