“Speaker of the TN House Cameron Sexton just removed me and every Democrat — and therefore every Black elected official in the state legislature from any committee we served on," Rep. Pearson said. Fascist reprisals for protesting.

Union nurses held a press conference today outside Bakersfield Memorial Hospital to demand hospital leadership reverse plans to close the hospital’s burn unit. This lifesaving specialized care for the Central Valley must be preserved!

Here's the story: Judge Brooke Jackson imposes new requirements on ICE in Colorado after finding that officers don't understand what the law (and ICE's own stated policies) require of them when making warrantless arrests of people in the field: www.coloradopolitics.com/2026/05/12/i...

“My favorite thing is a type of echinacea. It’s the Sun Seekers series and they’re just these big pompom, poofy, bright, vibrant flowers. They’re beautiful and I’m so excited to get them.” Water-wise choices for your garden:

The Supreme Court kicked the mifepristone can down the road and extended the stay until Thursday at 5 pm. So, you can still get mifepristone prescribed by telehealth—until at least Thursday!

Today is the last day of the administrative stay in the mifepristone case. The Court gave itself until 5 pm ET today to drop an order. Hang on to your butts, as they say.

Black folks in Lowndes County are literally sick of this shit under 20% of residents are served by a sewer system and over 30% test positive for hookworm--a parasite contracted from feces-contaminated soil over 70% have also had raw sewage come into their homes ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

What am I supposed to do with a stack of High Times magazines from the 90s? And why do I still have them? #widowdiaries

The same new network that thinks trans people are "mutilating" our bodies to feel more comfortable with our gender are now.... breathlessly praising the benefits of men inflating their testicles with surgical lube to feel more masculine.

Hard to overstate how face-meltingly hot Sherilyn Fenn was when Twin Peaks Season 1 was running on network TV

Cue rain

I’m been a mother for more than 26 years now. Over half my life has been spent this way. I never wanted kids. But I’ve watered many…

Reminds me of my brother Chris’s story. Hello @mayor.nyc.gov do you have a plan to stop this?!

Top news I missed

India and Pakistan each claim strategic successes after the four-day conflict, as tensions continue to simmer.

I feel like I only follow folks that are way smarter than I. Which is great, but…

Remind me to vent the sourdough starter I got for my mom before I go to bed. **sends skeet

I’ve so much to learn

"Sir, I will not be called a thief by the very same people I am actively trying to steal from, this is a breach of decorum!" "Man, fuck your decorum."

Black people are giving it these Confederates raw and uncut. This is how it’s gonna be now. You wonder what we’re thinking? It’s this. I believe this is activist Gary Chambers again in Louisiana.

The kids are alright

Was just let on to the fact that #TheMC has been designated a white rat. It’s so good to teach the young children things they shouldn’t yet hafta know Because they’re gonna need to know

Look I know everyone and their mother knows this song but it’s been stuck in my head all day so I’m making your problem now too #noorsplaylist

I’ve honestly entertained being a cruise nurse as my empty nester plan, but I hate dealing with emesis

Overheard neighbor, who just recently kicked his wife and daughter out, and moved back in with his loud boy and dog—as he aggressively vacuums something…”personal accountability is radical, right?” I loathe most men.

Got an email from a nurse that made my day! He had been at LA General where we implemented the @3wishesprogram.bsky.social as part of my NIH grant. He now works at UCI & wrote, "I loved the project & the impact it had on the family of my patients; I want to get it implemented on my current unit"!

I love this from writer Rebecca Woolf on Instagram. Selflessness is not a maternal virtue. Let moms have selves.

The govt is paying farmers $9M to destroy hundreds of thousands of peach trees that took 20 years to cultivate because a Del Monte factory closed.. Del Monte claims people are shifting to fresh fruit vs sugar-laden canned fruit. Why don't they just sell the f**king fruit? Free markets my @$$.

This week on Boom! Lawyered, @angryblacklady.blacksky.app and @hegemommy.bsky.social discuss the Supreme Court’s historic attack on voting rights in Louisiana v. Callais, and explain what’s next from the Court on the fight to block mifepristone access. Listen here or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hospital Admissions (comparing to initial #s for last week) Covid: 16, down from 17 last week Flu: 37, down from 54 RSV: 47, down from 72 Flu admissions now total 5808: 6% higher than last year's end of season total (5478), & 25% higher than the previous record (4650 in 17-18)

COVID, Flu & RSV in Colorado update, 5/5/26 Short update today because there's little change. Viral activity for all 3 viruses continues to wane. Wastewater levels of all 3 viruses continue to be very low.

I feel like all of us should be using the guide of: Do you care about me? as a bare minimum. Plenty of us care for each another, so it should be pretty easy to discern who lands in our circle
