📢 Access to medical abortion saves lives. The medications used – #mifepristone and #misoprostol - are included on WHO’s list of Essential Medicines. 🔗 bit.ly/3OynjiA

Not saying anyone should do this but, you know, if you have the means...

THIS THIS THIS

This was not a coincidence.

The MoCA is a screening tool for dementia. It is not an IQ test. A “high” score or even a “perfect” score is not a marker of intelligence level. It just means the person is not showing impairment suggestive of dementia or MCI. Anyone who says otherwise is saying not true things. #psychologist

Say it again. LOUDER!

Make no mistake: This is an attempt to re-segregate our society in everything but name. We reiterate our call to Morrisey to rescind his order, and we urge the House to vote no on this bill. Doing otherwise is welcoming litigation the state is likely to lose.

BREAKING: A court overturned Ohio's ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth. This is a critical victory for trans rights.

I’m down bad this weekend so I took some much-needed rest and read this masterpiece - if you haven’t read this, seriously, go read it.

Imagine this: On the evening of March 8, you and your spouse unlock the door to your apartment building. As you step inside, two men—not in uniform—push their way in behind you. They tell you your visa has been revoked and that they are there to deport you.

Bystander intervention is effective. Don’t let the snide comments, the misgendering, the verbal aggression slide. Don’t go along to get along. What we permit, we promote. Stop the conversation. Question what is said. Label bad behavior when it happens.

#showmeyourknits Ahhhhh I love chunky knits! Here is a pile of chunky knit hats I donated earlier this winter ❤️🧶

8 Liberty Street, Zaragoza, Spain, yarnbombed by 100 woman as part of a city festival. This giant installation took 6 months to prepare with over 1000 knitted/crocheted squares #WomensArt

Licensed mental health providers have an obligation to do no harm. So-called conversion therapy harms people and increases the risk of death by suicide. Every mental health professional organization opposes it. We need national mental health professional organizations to speak up.

Y’all call your representatives. Make an appointment and go talk to them in their offices. Take friends with you. Share your experiences. It can be hard but it’s important.

Preparing for a day of advocacy at the West Virginia legislature to protect access to evidence-based, effective, life-saving medication assisted treatment for opioid use disorder.

Grant me the courage to change the things I can change, the courage to change the things I cannot change, and the courage to ignore the difference

Guys no offense but um - we are cats, and we're doing more to publicly oppose the current administration than some of the performative bullshit we saw last night. 💅

Today’s #fibercoping was actually #embroidery - which was so much fun as a whimsical change of pace. I have a soft spot for angler fish.

#showmeyourknits is all about lace this week. This one is a little dated - I’m more likely to crochet lace than knit it - but I love the lace panel on the Unstoppable sweater. Even more love because the pattern release had been a fundraiser for women in Ukraine. 🧶❤️🇺🇦

Viagra is gender-affirming care, too.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

There is so much work to be done in this state for so many people and bills like this are simply disrespectful of everyone’s time and dismissive of the serious needs we have.

Just stopping by to remind y'all that we need to be contacting our representatives. There are a LOT of harmful bills being introduced that will infringe on our rights if they move forward and end up passing.

I’m not getting on another plane until Pete Buttigieg himself tells me the pilots are woke enough to keep us in the sky

#fibercoping by working on this beautiful lace shawl by lamplight (power outage courtesy of this chaotic Appalachian winter). Pattern is Good Vibes by Nadia Crétin-Léchenne. Yarn by The Wicked Knittah + some stash yarn when I lost yarn chicken. #showmeyourknits 🧶❤️

It was a good day to advocate for fairness for all West Virginians with @figureskatingland.bsky.social! #fairnesswv #fairnessforall

Your friendly neighborhood librarian here...buy physical copies of your favorite books, especially challenged or banned books. Preferably from small local merchants. That's all; carry on. #Read #BookSky #Resist 📚

I agree - I feel less helpless when I ask myself what is one thing I can do today - in my community. And then make sure I am also doing something to take care of myself and something to connect to my loved ones. Pacing is key for the long haul.

Well this is kind of magical this morning

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

American insurance companies — quietly, and with little government pushback — have assumed an outsize role in mental health care. People in pain are paying the price. On Feb. 20, join us for a virtual discussion about how insurers interfere with mental health care. RSVP:

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

Mitch McConnell voting no on terrible cabinet picks because he doesn’t have to run for reelection is all the proof you need that we must have term limits. You shouldn’t only have a spine because you don’t have to run again. We are breeding chicken shit power hungry electeds.

Ok this is the aesthetic

This is horrific.

We’ll be joining local protesters in Parkersburg tomorrow as Elon Musk’s DOGE team descends on the Fiscal Service Building. This peaceful protest begins at noon in Bicentennial Park. Let's send the message that our personal data matters and should not be in the hands of unelected billionaires.
