we don’t owe the “why didn’t she report it” crowd a single response

You can vaccinate early for MMR - talk to your pediatrician about your options.

Too young for the MMR shot, babies become ‘sitting ducks’ in measles outbreaks

News flash - you don’t actually “believe women” when women come forward and you believe literally everyone other than the women.

one week until my top surgery, I’m trying to raise around $1,000 more to reach $3,000. that will cover my surgery deposit and around 4 months of care credit payments to help carry me over until I can work and get my electrolysis books filled up :) !

Y'all there is a woman and a black man circling the moon and NASA's mission control+ science teams are so diverse and people are nerding out about science and exploration this is all a gigantic middle finger to the stupid and hate and grotesque ghouls running our country

The nuts & bolts of how we create realistic safety inside our head & heart in trauma recovery involve how we talk to ourselves, how we leverage our mental focus, & how we use our physiology, every day, every minute. I understand that's not sexy or profound, but that's the "how."

"oh so you're a socialist but you think rich people should get free healthcare!?!" yes. everyone should get free healthcare. EVERYONE. like, this isn't hard. also celebrities are starting gofundmes and athletes coming out of retirement to get health care! this system sucks for everyone!

Crips for eSIMs project is OUT OF FUNDS!!! Genocide is ongoing, and our principle way of hearing the news about it is through Palestinians finding ways to connect to the internet—including eSIMs. This is a real priority need, folks. Just a five connects someone for a month: bit.ly/esimsUK

The thing that doesn't get talked about enough when living in a world of horrors is that regular life bullshit just marches on and you're expected to keep up with it as if nothing else is happening.

I’m so tired.

Social movement scholar here again. So, why protest? Nihilists were out yesterday arguing that "protests don't do anything." A short 🧵:

If you’re feeling tired, anxious, overwhelmed even, you’re not alone. Take a break. Recharge. Resist the urge to doom-scroll. Or spiral into despair. If you have hope to give, reach out to those who need it. We are in this for the long haul. We need each other.

YES! Accessible, inclusive—so important for those who can’t physically/medically make it to the streets! #NoKings

When you throw rocks and hit a wasp's nest, the wasps decide when it is over.

Whole world is running on shady vibes right now.

I hate how stupid everything is.

Strongly suspect the next few days are gonna be very strange and disorienting. Move carefully, friends.

If you spot ICE agents at an airport in the coming days, I want to hear from you. Reach me via Signal at marisakabas.04

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

You could say that Rock n Roll was born 111 years ago today in Arkansas, but probably not where you'd think. Before there was a Chuck Berry or Little Richard, there was those who wanted to be like her. Rosetta Nubin better known as Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the godmother of Rock was born on this day

I have lived in a majority Muslim country, among kind and joyful and welcoming and curious neighbors. I have Muslim neighbors in my community now. To see politicians denigrate an entire people of faith as incompatible with America is one of the most deeply wrong things I can imagine. For the record.

Whispers* Give Ryan Coogler full control of the X-Men. Pay him whatever he asks.

“AI can never be AI without humans. It is not artificial intelligence. It’s African intelligence...We are training our own death. We train ChatGPT and it’s killing us slowly.” www.404media.co/ai-is-africa...

I agree: you shouldn't HAVE to change. I agree: you shouldn't be the one suffering because of what someone else did. I agree: it sucks that you or I even have to think about "trauma" or "recovery." None of which means we should abandon ourselves or our recovery habits today.

Search your camera roll for “Hell”

Legacy media is failing democracy. Rather than complain, I did something about. Six years ago I started Democracy Docket from scratch. Now it has more than 400,000 subscribers. But to help protect democracy, it needs to grow and scale. Subscribing now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Every vote counts, and there are no small elections.

Another long week, but hey, we’ve made it to the weekend ☕️

Evergreen, good for all occasions.

The older I get the more I settle into the grim conviction that fighting for a better world means accepting that between 30% and 40% of your fellow human beings will hate you, will try to stop you every inch of the way, and will resent that better world and work to destroy it even if you succeed

Increasingly of the opinion that the correct answer to the Trolley Problem is "fuck you, why are you so fixated on finding reasons to justify killing people?"

missed yesterday’s so I’m doing two at once and they’re really fucking dark. 42yo Honduran dad dies of what ICE calls liver failure due to alcoholism (family calls bullshit). 39yo DACA kid from Mexico dies of sudden illness, mom says no prior health probs & explicitly calls it “medical negligence”

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

MAKE AN EMERGENCY DONATION to Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate there and they are overwhelmed with requests. CO borders KS, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out. GO DONATE. tcpipeline.org

Someone made a 4 minute song about why you should hate Curtis Yarvin. I had to post it in two parts. /

We are the ones who will come to save us.

The calls for trans people to be quieter as we're wiped out are only going to increase, and you owe it to your sisters and brothers to get louder and louder.

This is not getting nearly enough attention.

1/5 🎬 FULL INTERVIEW CBS lawyers told Stephen Colbert he couldn't air this interview with Texas Democratic candidate for US Senate, James Talarico Republicans are scared this candidate could flip Texas in November and based on this interview, he could well do that He seems very electable 1/5...

People in our community are hungry and scared. You can help feed someone who’s hungry. You can show them they’re not alone. You can offer hope for a better tomorrow. You can feed a child. Chip in $10, $25, $50, $100, $200 — or go rogue with your donation. #ICEOutOfMinneapolisNow #FeedMinneapolis

isn’t a world that gives us that half time show so much better than whatever the worst people alive are offering as an alternative

My ideal version of America is what I saw Bad Bunny encapsulate: multicultural, multigenerational, queer, empathetic, and full of raucous love.

Reminder that the Democrats still have leverage via DHS funding. Do not stop calling and pressuring your representatives to do the right thing. jeffries.house.gov/2026/02/04/l...

I wish I could show you the texts I am getting from my friends back home in the twin cities. It truly is gut wrenching and enraging. Everyone I know is an organizer right now.
