This is absolutely true. If the NYT covered this the way they covered trans care, you all would finally understand what dangerous shit their trans care coverage has been.

Finished all my billing and my notes the same day as my sessions for the first time since I got COVID last month. Cautiously optimistic that I might finally be making brain progress!

Trump’s inability to pronounce “acetaminophen” raises new questions about Joe Biden’s mental state.

I have taken the Tylenol that was in the medicine cabinet and which they think probably is the reason you like trains forgive me but that’s bullshit you got autism from your dad

I cannot emphasize this enough: The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent. They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so. Doomers are not realists.

A thing that's wild to me as someone who aged into being extremely news-aware when Elian Gonzalez was rescued at sea is that any of these boats could have refugees, human trafficking victims, or children on them and this administration is just blowing them up for clout with no consequences

They never really intended for "states' rights" to be for the left. Government can be however big they want it to be to ensure everyone is controlled by Christofascism

I can tell I haven't fully worked through my religious trauma because seeing this totally activated my nervous system for a minute 🫠

Donated to the @michiganpublic.bsky.social fall fund drive after realizing that I never go more than a week without sharing something I heard on the radio with someone in my life. If you're cancelling other subscriptions this week (coughdisneycoughcough), $15 a month can help (and get you a shirt!)

The longer I look at this marketplace listing the more questions I have...

Here's a small selection. Once I retrieve the camera and don't have to stand in the woods getting attacked by mosquitoes to actually review all the pictures and videos I'll have more to share!

Even if this wasn't both unethical and immoral, who do they think will sign up for these trials? People who think the vaccine is safe won't be willing to risk being in the placebo group, and people who have been blinded by propaganda won't be willing to risk possibly receiving the vaccine 🙃

One of my favorite things about having the trail cam this month has been getting to see critters examining it up close

13 really wanted us to get a smart fridge when we replaced our old one this spring and this was one of several reasons I said no. We have enough extraneous screens in our faces (WTF gas station pumps?!) already, I didn't want unasked for content in my kitchen too

When I worked at a university a few years ago, the woman who ran the market in my building was a middle aged white woman 3%er. She flouted the mask mandate and would argue with students about it and flashed around the 3%er logo on her phone lockscreen all the time so people would know. I wish I 1/2

Audre told us.

I have 5 notes and one email left to do to be completely caught up on work. Using all of the strategies I teach my clients to try to get it done tonight!

No notes

I always realize how gay I am when an allegedly universally attractive man dies and I'm like

I got 6+ relatively uninterrupted hours of sleep for the past 3 nights and I feel like a completely different person. You're telling me this is what people get to feel like every morning?! They get out of bed and have energy to do things and aren't falling asleep sitting up constantly?!

Live footage of Maggie Haberman right now

Political violence is evil, killing people is evil, a country with more guns in it than people is broken, and what the government is saying about political violence right now being a primarily leftwing phenomenon is factually, statistically untrue. They are using this moment to rewrite history.

I had a 2 hour* filling appointment on Friday and I thought the soreness was finally over but tonight all the injection sites on the right side are super painful. Feels really unfair to still be suffering this many days later 😭 *Was supposed to be 1 hour but I guess dentists get scope creep too

reposting with alt text because this feels incredibly significant. the right-wing disinfo machine means a lot of the people grieving Charlie Kirk never heard any of the things he said that would have tarnished his brand as Guy Who Just Wants to Have Dialogue Across the Aisle

Spotted on the trail cam so far: ✅ Deer ✅Raccoon ✅Groundhog ✅Chipmunk ✅Opossum ✅Human neighbor ❌Kitten

Update: live trap acquired and set, trail cam ordered to help monitor whether the kitten's sampling the food. Really hoping we can capture it before the neighborhood hawk gets it 🤞🤞

rarely have I more acutely felt the dynamic by which Dems are held responsible for the rhetoric of every random left-leaning person on the internet and Republicans are not even asked to answer for their own personal words

😤✋ Catching up on my notes 😊👉 Spending all evening tracking down a live trap for the kitten we spotted in our driveway but who escaped into the nature area behind us before we could catch it

I decided to redact what I was about to say about this story and instead I'll just say that I hope the consequences they (and those that gave them guns) receive are enough to prevent future serial killers from having the opportunity to volunteer to go murder people for funsies

The rule is that if you snort laugh at a nytpitchbot skeet you have to share it

Our friend who got detained by DHS in May had yet another hearing yesterday and is now listed as having been ordered for removal. Does anyone know how we can find out where he is going to be sent? He doesn't have a lawyer for us to ask 😕

PSA: if you're texting and walking or otherwise not paying attention to your surroundings at a store, you might accidentally step on a service dog's tail and then (based on the guy who just did it) feel really really bad. (Dog is fine, and tbh I'm not sure who was more sad about it, her or the guy)

Back at the dentist. 10 couldn't tolerate the spacers needed for a Hall crown so we're going to try for regular old fillings (for a kid who has a hard time tolerating cleanings 🫠) Vibes, crossed fingers, prayers welcome!

Don’t say “Dems aren’t doing anything.” There’s just little attention to the courage of these Missouri Dems resisting the extreme gerrymandering of Republicans desigmed to increase Republican numbers in the House. www.kfvs12.com/2025/09/05/m...

PSA: if your end of summer peaches are starting to get a little sad, put them in a salad with leaf lettuce, beets, goat cheese (I only had feta, which is also fine), honey roasted pistachios, and a white balsamic vinaigrette

Does anyone have up-to-date info on how long post-COVID I have theoretical immunity? I want to get a vaccine but if they might be hard to come by in the future I feel like I should be strategic in my timing. Does delaying it by a few weeks (assuming I have some amount of immunity now) make sense?

A very good team at the dentist today

My to-do list for this week includes catching up on 30 progress notes, scheduling fillings for myself at the dentist (urgently since another one broke the other day 😭), taking a kid+service dog team to the dentist, making 5 phone calls, and doing about 10 loads of laundry. Zero INCUP* for any of it

I'm an ideal world, this would lead to a bigger conversation about how the lies the military uses to recruit people ("you’ll be doing XYZ extremely cool and specialized thing!") most often results in people not remotely doing what they were promised and simply being bodies for the agenda du jour

This is extremely unsettling

So can everyone in DC and Chicago (and Baltimore and wherever else) wear big stickers that say "Epstein Files" so that all the footage he wants to use on Fox News for his strong man image is unusable for him?

With credible reports that there will soon be a major increase in federal immigration enforcement activity in Chicago, I want to once again highlight the Family Support Network - a rapid response resource run by the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (ICIRR). Use it if you spot ICE.

I overdid it yesterday (3 morning clients, haircut, big Costco trip, putting away all the costco things, dog enrichment, impromptu dinner with neighbors until 11pm) so even though I took a 3 hour nap after working this morning I'm ready to go back to bed. Just 4 more hours....

When you say “covid is over” or refer to the pandemic only in the pastense you make it easy for RFK jr to withhold the vaccines & defund clinics. You make it easy for employers to end paid sick days. When you don’t mask up you make it easy to pass bans. We organize but what you do & say matters too.

I really wonder what the genuine Pizzagate and "save the children" believers think about this situation

I shouldn't even have to say this, but PLEASE don't bring your pet cat to Costco. It's not funny, it's not cute, it's disrespectful to people with allergies, and every non-service animal taken into a store makes it so people with legitimate service animals face more scrutiny
