Since when do either of these bozos know anything about autism? And BTW, vaccines do NOT cause autism💥💯

Guy who doesn’t even respond to the mothers of his children: reply to my email or you’re fired

Not all heroes wear capes 🤣🔥

This is how you do it: The University of Connecticut has placed vending machines with the emergency contraceptive Plan B on its campus in an effort to expand access to contraception. dnyuz.com/2025/02/17/u...

This was one of several reasons I was heartbroken and sickened two days ago. This 11-year-old, terrified her parents would be taken from her and tormented about it by other children, took her own life. It is incomprehensible and horrific that this is what's happening here in our country.

Muskrat just makes up the rules as he goes. And no one is getting in his way. 😡😡😡

this Conclave oscar campaign is next level

Contrary to what you've believed all these years, your mom is actually grossed out by your dirty underwear.

People with doctorates are the most liberal and progressive. The entire mission of destroying academia is to eliminate entire voting demographics. They explicitly spell this out. Shutting down PhD programs isn't an accident, it's the goal.

Good Morning Everyone (ty @cwebbonline.com ) Please take a moment to listen Please take a moment and be like this great guy.... Please take a moment to remember Amanda Gorman said " IF ONLY WE ARE BRAVE ENOUGH TO SEE IT." "IF ONLY WE ARE BRAVE ENOUGH TO BE IT "

This is why "how many genders are there, huh?" is such a dumb question. It's like asking exactly how many colors exist. Even blue is a fuzzy category, why would you expect human beings to be simpler than photons?

The nations top research universities (R1) are under assault by the Trump administration. Pitts has paused all PhD admissions for next year. Many R1 schools are also Division 1 NCAA schools. All SEC, Big 10, ACC, Big 12, Ivy League schools. Suspend sports and explain it is due to Musk, Trump

"Six weeks ago, we had the strongest economy, employment, and stock market in history. ..All gone in 30 days."

"And now, a barf in two acts, ladies and gentlemen" My cat, last night

THIS is why we have to SPEAK UP! "Trump Reverses Cuts to 9/11 Health Program After Criticism"

Hooters, known for its themed service model, is filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. This comes after accumulating $300 million in debt and their last servers flopped hard.

People experiencing pregnancy loss in states with abortion bans told us they wished they had known what to expect and how to advocate for themselves. We created this guide for anyone who finds themselves in the same position.

another great example along with Wired and Teen Vogue of how real journalism these days can be a lot braver at outlets where no one is trying to get in good with the White House press secretary they’re out here with us, reporting on what’s happening to us all, instead of trying to get inside access

The asteroid that didn't hit us this week has not given up: it's coming back for us sometime in 2032. It's obsessed with killing us all, just like Trump.

Why aren’t a million of us marching on DC? They do it in other countries, but not here. Why?

NIGHTS OF BLUE SKIES (sound 🎵) DAY 21 FRIDAY 2025 Another horrible week for all of you and me and our country Over 70 executive orders & not one to help America Tonight, I hope this brings you some serenity and a little peace This is home The Sonoran Desert 🏜 Sending love your way

I ask this every day when I call my representatives' offices.

I saw this on Reddit in a post about Jenny Slate having filed a complaint and it is worth the read. It's talking largely about the case between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

These are Resistance OGs and New Gs. Many I have known for years, others I have met flying these friendly skies. We are all stronger Resistance Gs together, which is why I produce and promote starter packs like this. go.bsky.app/CUQR9e6

Put this sticker on my door today

Donald Trump gets tons of hate. But not nearly enough. We can do better.
