Dear EOHHS, your MBHP (Carelon) appears non-compliant in re: administering this delegated function thereby restricting recipients’ access to care from qualified providers. cc: @massago.bsky.social @senrobynkennedy.bsky.social @john-mahoney64.bsky.social

courts are struggling over whether letting Google Maps save your frequent destinations so you can easily pull up directions also authorizes Google to give cops minute by minute updates on your location when asked never occurred to me that would be a hard question ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/chatr...

This piece is essential reading for everyone in Massachusetts. The proposals pose real risks to everyone, including kids. @evangreer.bsky.social and @nathaliemarechal.net explain why and what could be done instead.

Paging @senrobynkennedy.bsky.social & @john-mahoney64.bsky.social to read this thread

I love when @clapifyoulikeme.favrd.social gets a link

congrats to this woman on becoming the new rightful owner of beast bars, beast burgers, and, if her lawyers play their cards right, mr beast’s house

sound up for chirping purrs

for the record I think being able to block with wild abandon is a core feature of Bsky and a staff member blocking 300,000 people is fine actually, but ALSO a core feature of Bsky is that we’re allowed to make fun of people for doing things like sincerely making a labeler for “AI slurs”

how is that overstuffed sausage casing cosplaying as a human not in an icu? rfk jr is nearly purple!

what a weenie

Sharing cus kids are cute. And some of you need to sit down and sing the wheels on the bus to re-center your humanity.

A generic marinara is my go-to base when I don’t have time to let a scratch sauce simmer for hours. This takes 5-10 min to prep and 25-30 min to cook. /1

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

this is fucking unreal stuff from Noah Wyle on the magic of The Pitt. www.gq.com/story/noah-w...

a bit more simple:

everyone claim your new trade so we can assemble into our 19th century commune when shit hits the fan

new bucket list unlocked for my adhd craft friends:

Artemis knocked us into a whole new universe ❤️🌓

Yes! This.

also, not wanting your sexual abuser to have the HIGHEST OFFICE IN THE STATE is, y'know, A REAL STRONG MOTIVATION also fyi fyi fyi fyi reactions like this are WHY PEOPLE DON'T COME FORWARD. If you've never had to do it you have NO IDEA how awful people are when you come forward!!!!!

“Why did they wait till now” Why was a married man sexually assaulting interns?????

Fancy me: Asiago Peppercorn Yankee Real me: Ranch Librul

Hello, I made you a feed of your cats watching the Artemis II splashdown bsky.app/profile/did:...

I still do not understand why Democrats in Congress did not pick an enormous fight over this.

very cool that Massachusetts lawmakers, who spend all day every day talking about how they're protecting us from Trump, just passed the "upload your ID to the Palantir database in order to access social media" law while saying they're "protecting the kids"

Thank you to @mikeconnollyma.bsky.social and @electerika.bsky.social for being the only #mapoli Dems to vote against a bill that will require YOU... YES YOU... NOT A KID to give biometric, age verification information to big tech corporations to access Bluesky and other apps.

"largely along party lines" means the DEMOCRATS voted for the most draconian social media/cell phone bill in the country, based on language that is still tied up on First Amendment grounds from a bill passed in FLORIDA.

wtf @john-mahoney64.bsky.social

Anyway, we have ample research on how living under a state of sustained terror and stress causes life-long health problems as well as intergenerational epigenetic effects. This feels like it's making you sick because it actually is making you sick.

A bunch of literal children died after he manufactured a crisis. Just a reminder. Many mothers and fathers had their lives irrevocably changed so Trump could pat himself on the back. They lost their babies. For Trump.

Will be calling @john-mahoney64.bsky.social & @senrobynkennedy.bsky.social to oppose this bill.

time to listen to murder podcasts & disassociate for a bit ✌️

@repmcgovern.bsky.social @warren.senate.gov @markey.senate.gov n.b.

there will be a tomorrow and his toadies will be happy to arrest you tomorrow and days subsequent. take heed:

Every single person attending this has no business every working in news media ever again

This is the off ramp and he'll probably take it, in no small part because he fucking loves telling everyone something will happen in two weeks.

It looks like there’s a real chance Pakistan might mediate either a short ceasefire or at least an extension from Trump’s deadline, which gives him an off-ramp, but holy fucking shit things should not work like this and yet again people need to wake the fuck up and end this abomination of a regime.

just to be clear, everyone, when 8 pm EDT comes and goes, regardless of what does or does not happen, the president still threatened genocide and war crimes and we should still impeach, arrest, and try him

In all seriousness, one thing that might be worth doing today: Tell your Reps and Senators to call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, which controls the nation's nukes, and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

Script.

lord, I have seen what you’ve done for others #worpoli #woopoli

yooooo lemme get that shot before 50, please & thank you

All right, live whatevering of Trump v. Barbara, the birthright citizenship case. Arguing for the bad guys is US Solitictor General John (voice is an immutable characteristic so let's show some respect) Sauer. For the plaintiffs it's ACLU legal director Cecillia Wang.
