If you’re a Dem elected and you’re not mentioning the massive cuts to cancer cure and social security funding in every public appearance you’re just not doing your job.

I don't know how else to say this except for bluntly: It is not normal to have outbreaks of preventable diseases in wealthy countries. It is not normal to have children dying from preventable diseases in wealthy countries. This is the first US measles death in 10 years. There should be none.

it’s a great time to remind everyone to keep your cats indoors. i don’t want to hear that shit about how your cat is desperate to go outside or is used to being out there. i had an outdoor cat i had to bring inside after 13yrs. i know how they are. she lived to 20. they’ll get over it & so will you.

REMEMBER KIDS when flooding a snitch form, DON’T use obvious troll responses that can be filtered out with a query Use PLAUSIBLE FAKE data that will take TIME and EFFORT to run down. This poisons the entire data pool and makes it useless

Always remember they're going after trans people not because trans people became too public, not because trans people asked for too much, not because trans people had too many genders, not because trans people were annoying online. They're going after trans people because they lost to gay people.

More measles cases in the U.S, this time in Kentucky and New Jersey. Officials say they don’t believe they’re linked to the Texas outbreak, but stress the importance of vaccination. Remember if you get measles, it can wipe out previous vaccines & immunity. Respirators work well too!

The anti vax playbook was indistinguishable from the playbook they ran on trans youth healthcare and I'm never going to forget those who carried water for the latter and acted surprised when the former gaoned control of the country.

This story is crazy because apparently she kept coming back and vandalizing the Tesla dealer with incendiary devices and they finally just waited and got her the next time she returned

Y'all. I... mmm, I can not. Reminder that measles can be transmitted through coughs/sneazing and also lives on surfaces. A great time to make sure that hand sanitizer is in your rotation, wash your hands and don't touch your face. And for the love of Pete, be up to date on your vaccinations.

Entirely predictable action by the GOP, which has steadfastly stood for regressive economic policies for decades, but yet for the last decade, ever since the emergence of Trump, has managed to snooker much of the pundit class into thinking it would reverse into a pro-worker party.

Hi, just a reminder that when you use Libro.fm for your audiobooks, you support independent bookshops vs. large corporations that drive them out of business. We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.

Friendly reminder that Joann Fabrics isn’t closing because it’s a bad business. It’s closing bc it was bought by a private equity firm. This is also what is happening to Hooters and what happened to US Toys R Us and Red Lobster. These companies are being dismantled intentionally.

I'm a goofy history nerd, so DOGE makes me think about the Doge of Venice who attempted a coup in 1355. His cronies were hanged, and he was not only beheaded but declared damnatio memoriae (damnation of memory), stricken from official history forever. It's a nice thought.

My very first novel, The King's Peace, an alternate history Arthurian, is on sale for $2.99 as an ebook today. I have improved as a writer since 2000, but I am fond of this story of a woman who became a knight because it was fun & learned duty, responsibility & loyalty www.amazon.com/Kings-Peace-...

Just as an FYI, hospitals NEED Medicare and Medicaid dollars to function. Smaller/ rural/ critical access hospitals will not survive without them. So even if you don't rely on Medicare, you still might lose your local hospital or find yourself stranded without care while traveling.

There's a lot of people...disabled, kids, and poor seniors on Medicaid... that simply physically can't work. A nonzero percentage of disabled people and seniors also do not have anybody else who can or will support them, especially when it comes down to something as onerous as medical expenses.

Nearly 100 people across Texas and New Mexico have contracted measles, state officials say, escalating anxiety over the spread of a potentially life-threatening illness that was declared eliminated in the United States more than two decades ago.
