Iowa is the first U.S. state to remove gender identity protections from its civil rights code. They accomplished this human rights violation in a week. A WEEK. I wish they brought that energy to helping their citizens with healthcare or food accessibility.

While we’re talking about eggs, you can avoid them completely! Get some Kala Namak black salt and your tofu scramble will be SO DELICIOUS. It’s my favorite meal of the day! (And you’re saving money and not supporting a very cruel industry) 🐣🌱

Today is #WorldWildlifeDay I think this quote from the wonderful Dame Jane Goodall is very appropriate... 'What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.'

Does anyone know if the economic blackout had any results? I participated and would love to see if had an impact.

Support people in your community who are speaking up against harmful legislation! It’s so hard to speak up for many people, so be there for them when they do! 💗

Instead of boycotting Amazon, SHEIN, temu, Nestle, etc. for a specific day, stop supporting them period. These can be avoided 99% of the time. Vote with your dollar. Thrift. Buy less. But nothing groups. Support small sustainable business instead of billionaires and corporations. Please.

Putting RFK Jr. in charge of the nation’s public health is a huge mistake. When dangerous diseases resurface and people can’t access lifesaving vaccines, all Americans will suffer — and RFK Jr.’s family could keep getting richer thanks to his serious conflicts of interest.

To our faithful public servants across America: HOLD THE LINE -- do NOT resign. Stay in your job, keep reporting for duty, and make them fire you. Because they CAN'T fire you - it's ILLEGAL - and we will stop them in the courts. WE'VE GOT YOUR BACK.
