RFK Jr. spits out a mouthful of asbestos and takes a swig from his sewage bottle. "I can already see children getting healthier," he gurgles, a bone from a roadkill bat lodged in his larynx. "The spike in measles deaths is a sign their mitochondrial vitality is spiking." His left ear drops off.

"No matter where I lived, I knew this was guaranteed because after moving into a new place, we’d plug in our old box television, adjust the shitty little antenna just so, and voila, like magic, there was PBS. It was free."

Gotcha Day for Dolly and Emmylou! Can’t believe we adopted them from Southern Indiana Animal Rescue so long ago. Grateful to still have our darling little floofs! 😍🥹

Well, they did it. Congress has eliminated funding for public media, deeply affecting the stations of LPM: WFPK, WFPL, WUOL & KY Center for Investigative Reporting. Not to mention my friends at PBS and KET. Now it’s up to ALL OF US! Please consider a donation to LPM.ORG ❤️

Kentucky has had 46 severe flooding or tornado events so far this year and it’s only July — public media and weather alerts have never been more important. While Republicans are turning their backs on rural Americans, I'm still fighting for every single Kentuckian. bit.ly/46cP8Yn
