Spread the love and acceptance #pridemonth

This is horrifying. Avelo Airlines should be ashamed. You can call Avelo customer service at (346) 616-9500.

This statement from Jonathan Joss's husband is heart breaking. No, headline writers, he wasn't "killed in an argument with a neighbor." He was *deliberately murdered* for being gay right after his dog was decapitated. Bet the murderer calls himself a "Christian." THIS is why Pride is important.

Pete Hegseth is a racist and a bigot. That is not "warrior spirit" its just fucking hate. www.cbsnews.com/news/navy-ne...

Check out the white supremacist Odin imagery on a patch belonging to an apparent ICE officer in the Twin Cities today

All the people complaining about Pride parades, parades they don't pay a penny for, are predictably silent about the US's Most Costly Parade Celebrating Pride (Donald Trump's), which they *will* be paying for. theintercept.com/2025/05/29/t...

Wondering how NASA science benefits your state? We’ve built an interactive dashboard where you can explore detailed economic impact reports for every U.S. state and the congressional districts they touch. Explore the data here: dashboards.planetary.org/nasa-science...

head empty no thoughts just the jwst tarantula nebula picture ✨

BREAKING: The president's budget request just hit Congress, which could usher in a dark age for NASA space science. Congress has the final say, but you can help shape the outcome by adding your name to our global petition. This is just the start of our fight. Sign the petition: planet.ly/petition

Thanks so much for the inclusion into your SP, @whatifisaidit.bsky.social Followed all new to me. Liked and reposting... go.bsky.app/AwWzeAi

Repost if you agree

Yes, you did vote to deport moms.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

"As Musk slinks away, spending went up, not down, during his tenure, and DOGE made the government less efficient, not more..." "A legacy of shattered institutions, weakened public services, and fired civil servants who did nothing but serve their country well..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

She is an American citizen, the daughter of a U.S. Navy service member from Illinois, who was stationed in the Philippines during the Vietnam War. This is fascism, plain and simple.

1000% this

One thing we never talk about is how NASA was not allowed to fail in the same ways that SpaceX does. For NASA, they’ve been under a strict microscope of not wasting taxpayer dollars in their pursuits. The bar was always high. SpaceX has a lower bar, all while still using taxpayer dollars.

Are you a scientist and not sure what to do to help with all the awfulness all around us? Inspired by Vietnam era activism, @standupforscience.bsky.social is hosting a series of "teach ins," in which scientists share a bit about their area of expertise and why it's important with the public. 🧪🦑🌎

Looking forward to @replamonica.bsky.social demanding details of Tom Homan and Pam Bondi's lobbying deals with GEO, which got a huge contract to run Delaney Hall. www.thedailybeast.com/trumps-borde...

🧵 1/ Can we talk about the MMR vaccine? (Since our 🪱 boss won’t...) It doesn’t just fight measles—MMR also protects against mumps and rubella. Rubella was eliminated in the U.S. in 2004 ✅ That means it’s no longer spreading here. Thank you, vaccines 💉

We can’t get into all the details just yet, things are still unfolding, but here’s what we can say: staff from Musk’s “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) have been trying to assert more control inside federal agencies, especially within the Interior Department.

Managed to get a shot of NGC6888 (Crescent Nebula) last night! Should have let it go a while longer - but I was feeling sleepy. #astrophotography

Musk’s team was caught using a customized version of the Grok chatbot, without approval, to sift through sensitive government data inside the Department of Homeland Security. They used a modified version in an attempt to hide the fact that they were doing it.

Even if it went nowhere, I'd still love to see a Democrat on CSPAN saunter up to the front of the House chamber, drop a 978-count Article of Impeachment on the Clerk's desk, and just... 🫳 . . . . . . . 🎤

JUST IN: A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from removing medical research papers from an HHS database over references to transgender people. It is unconstitutional viewpoint discrimination, he rules. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

🧵 This is a hard thread for me to share. My beautiful daughter @mrsholden2019.bsky.social is a 5th grade teacher, having dedicated her life to educating our nation’s youth. She is amazing. Her students adore her. Parents clamor every year to get their children placed in her class. 1)

There are SO many clinkers in this bill that no one - certainly not congresspeople - has given any serious thought to.

Don’t look away.
