US airports report over 20 air traffic controller shortage triggers in one day

This 100%.

I meant to post this earlier today. It was a good reminder I needed, even though I still struggle with body image. every. single. day. @thelatestkate.bsky.social #PositiveAffirmation #BodyPositivity #BodyImage #YouAreLovable

NEWS: Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes and Rep.-Elect Adelita Grijalva have SUED the U.S. House of Representatives in federal court in Washington, D.C. over Speaker Mike Johnson’s refusal to swear in Grijalva. Grijalva would be the 218th vote for the Epstein Files discharge petition.

Anyone know of orgs in Baltimore that could help a homeless trans woman back on her feet? Our community member Naomi was forced out of the shelter and needs some help beyond just keeping her in a motel for a few more days

you’re telling me that another thirtysomething republican has nazi beliefs. wow

The World Health Organization announced that the last Ebola patient in Congo’s latest outbreak was discharged over the weekend and no new cases have been reported since Sept. 25. https://to.pbs.org/4hh2ohY

I can't really explain fully why this is the thing of all things that got my jaw on the floor but I guess it's such a literal symbol and also such a jaw dropping amount of money while small businesses are struggling to survive the tariffs Such a visible "go fuck yourself"

Pay attention to who bends the knee and consume accordingly.

Whoa. Chicago mayor calls for a general strike; now we're talking www.huffpost.com/entry/chicag...

Wanna be mad king just posted this on Truth Social! #NoKings

This child is struggling with pain and we can make a different. Our healthcare system helps, but we can make a difference! gofund.me/b57715a26

So far today, Chuck Schumer has said his strategy for preventing Trump sending troops into blue cities is to win over Republican senators (!) while Hakeem Jeffries praised Eric Adams's courage and authenticity (!!) while refusing to endorse Mamdani. Again. These two gotta go.

Can't we just get healthcare

ICE patrolling the streets of Chicago with dressed in full military uniforms and with real weapons. This is today (Sept. 28).

Your daily reminder. You have a sexual predator in the WH. #ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles #TrumpEpsteinCoverUp

Oregon Governor Tina Kotek in Portland: "I will not be approving utilization of the Oregon national Guard. The President does not have the authority to deploy federal troops on State soil."

Happy Gotcha Anniversary #3 to this lovable goober, Trooper. He is a source of light, a sass master, a good boy, with a boopable snoot, bombastic side eye and beeeeeeg stretches. And we love him. 🐶❤️

I'm such a huge fan of @kialeep.bsky.social and it’s not just because I’m her editor. I've loved every one of their books and Nyte in Shining Armor is no exception. Want a different kind of vampire, non-binary rep, and worldbuilding that will keep you guessing? You should pick up a copy today!

It is possible for two things to be true at once. It is possible to hate everything a person stands for and still not want them to be murdered. It is possible to hate all forms of gun violence and hate when that violence is done to someone who supported it. (1/2)

Happy International Literacy Day!

Everything just feels really crushing right now

I don’t truly believe it would be better to be oblivious to everything going on right now and just live like a dullard but I do wish I had a dullard setting that I could toggle off and on

My husband has already started doing this. It’s sick that he even has to, but that’s the US we live in now.

Kudos to the Dems in the @oversightdemocrats.house.gov for finding the note 47 said didn't exist. I wish @wsj.com the best of luck with the lawsuit. I hope they allow cameras so the women whose lives they destroyed can watch him get pummeled in court for days. PEDO TRUMP IS A NATIONAL DISGRACE.

Fiction will never be frivolous. We need people to keep imagining how much better or worse the world can be, and what it would take to get there.

Two great points here!!

PLEASE TELL ME WE AREN'T DOING THE STUPID "DOES READING AUDIOBOOKS COUNT AS READING" DEBATE AGAIN. OF COURSE IT DOES. YOU'RE BEING ABLEIST TO SAY IT DOESN'T. SHUT UP.

A day in the life of a girl with a chronic illness. Doing my stretches at physical therapy to strengthen my hips and abdominals to better support my back because it’s shot, while simultaneously working to loosen my ever tense lower back muscles through electro-therapy. (1/2)

🐝 It’s perfect 🤣

Register now. :)

Strutting around with the @writehive.bsky.social tote bag that was made for me. Literally. 

We won’t talk about the fact that it’s carrying medical records. On my chronic illness-400 doctor visits a year-thing. . . . . . #amwriting #choosehappiness #indieauthors #chronicillnesswarriors

Today we learned Andrew Cuomo is directly coordinating with Donald Trump, even as this President sends masked agents to rip our neighbors off the streets and guts the social services so many New Yorkers rely on. It’s disqualifying and a betrayal of our city.

This morning, ICE rolled into a Home Depot parking lot using a moving truck loaded w/agents, like a Trojan horse, to snatch up Latino workers. Whoever they could find. No idea if they were undocumented or not. That’s not enforcement. That’s racial profiling, and violates a standing court order.

Newsflash, Wannabe Dictator: I don’t care how many times you shake the Etch A Sketch trying to redraw these lines. I’m not disappearing. I’ll be back, still on your behind every step of the way. (1/2)

Maybe it isn't ideal to have a crazy lawyer with no medical background who obviously doesn't look after his own health in charge of looking after ours.

I’m so excited to be joining these wonderful women as they share their strange worlds with us in Strong Women, Strange Worlds Third Thursday Quick Reads. I’ll be reading an excerpt from The Skeleton Key that introduces a strange world of my own.
