Next year, Americans will see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years. Meanwhile, the six largest health insurers raked in more than $31 billion in net income last year. Still not sure if we need Medicare for All?

It’s my Gran’s birthday today (84!) Here’s an oil painting I did of her a few years back during lockdown #oilpainting #artist

I’ve been having a rough time with art block lately. I’ve felt stuck with my style and decided to do something completely different and try to go for a 2000s shoujo manga style because it’s nostalgic for me. I wanted to capture a lighter brighter energy and just do something self indulgent.

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

60% of Florida voters approved a $15 minimum wage initiative in 2020 — a bigger vote share than Trump ever got in the state.  But the state GOP is now trying to gut the law by carving out exceptions for major categories of workers.  "Party of the working class".

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

Trump's blame tracker: RESPONSIBLE: (no evidence) D.E.I. The military Obama Biden NOT RESPONSIBLE: (ignore any evidence) Elon Musk, who pushed out the FAA director coz he raised safety concerns about SoaceX flights Trump/DOGE sweeping budget cuts, mass firings of safety & oversight personnel

We did not have a FAA administrator to respond to the tragic crash last night in DC. Why? Because Elon Musk pushed the head appointed under Biden to resign after he fined SpaceX for failing to follow safety license requirements. www.theverge.com/news/603113/...

To recap, Trump: -Forced out the FAA chief at Musk's insistence -Imposed a hiring freeze that reportedly included air traffic controllers -Fired the TSA head and gutted a key aviation safety committee -Blamed the DCA crash on DEI This is disastrous leadership.

My @scishow.bsky.social buddies will appreciate this one.

Big Tech billionaires had a front row seat at Trump's inauguration. They were seated in front of Trump's own cabinet. Tells you everything you need to know.

If Elon Musk making a "Heil Hitler" salute isn't a lead on every news outlet, I don't even know what to say anymore. When he's support fascists in Germany, it's very Kristallnacht what he's saying.

Elon Musk Today:

Why are people trying to rationalize what they clearly see? There is no benefit of the doubt here. Elon Musk INTENTIONALLY did this salute twice in front of an audience! Why are we not calling for businesses we support to leave X? This is the time to boycott! Seriously! WTF

I almost want to discuss the Elon Musk salute with my parents but I know I’ll just be gaslit by a bunch of mental gymnastics and somehow lose in the end like always

Fox Noise: "Musk '''appears''' to give Nazi salute at inauguration" The salute he gave:

Sounds fair to me!

I can finally share this now that it’s finished! My embroidered Tie Dye Stegosaurus! #Embroidery #Dinosaur #Art #SciArt

Thought about selling this, but changed my mind. Spent approximately 80 hours on this piece, the most I've ever spent on any one piece. Love it too much to part with it. It's now in a frame and hanging in our living room.

Everything you know about wrinkly fingers is probably wrong. Particularly, it is not a physical act of water on the body, it is a neurological effect of the body on itself. People who have fingers with severed nerves do not prune on those fingers.

My Christmas gift for my mom is finally done and I'm so proud of my embroidery work. Onwards to my next project!

Trump’s team claimed that their tax cuts would boost household income by $4,000. But research shows that the lowest paid workers saw no change in earnings. Meanwhile, exec salaries increased sharply. Trump and Republicans want to double down on yet another trickle-down scam.
