Say it louder for those in the back (or Texas) RFK jr. VACCINES SAVE LIVES. Do you need an MMR Booster? Those Vaxxed with the dead measles virus in 1963-69 should get a live vax MMR booster.

If you work at the Washington Post, now is the time to resign. You’re a part of this now.

Abigail Adams was a voice for women, urging her husband to 'remember the ladies.' A sharp intellect and fierce advocate, she shaped the nation’s early ideals. Her words still inspire: ‘If particular care is not paid to the ladies, we are determined to foment a rebellion.’ #WomensHistory

This is the coolest thing I've made. #knitsky #knitting

It is so nice to wake up and my pain levels be back to normal. Well, my normal.

I had a bad emotional flashback Wednesday night. Thursday was rough. Friday was the start of a major fibroflare. More than my baseline. I did everything to self treat, but I booked a massage. I'm so glad I did. I feel so much better. My massage therapist did energy work on me, too. ❤️

This energy.

What if history just didn't repeat itself, for once?

James Madison wrote of the necessity of the separation of powers: “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive & judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elected, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.”

This is so good.

Absolutely brutal scroll on Fox.

No one probably really remembers this, but... One of the reasons for the American Revolution was because the colonists were tired of all the tariffs. The Stamp Act pissed off enough colonists that it set things in motion. Maybe this might help more people wake up. #studyhistory #tariffs

Update. #skykal #knitsky #knitting #knit

This isn’t DEI—it’s deadly short staffing. NEW: An FAA report says one air traffic controller was working two positions during the crash. “The position configuration was not normal for the time of day and volume of traffic.” Lives are at stake, and they know it.

The 1964 hit "As Tears Go By," penned by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, made her a star, but Marianne Faithfull demonstrated a remarkable ability to change with the times.

due to high demand, i present— baby skye ✨ working hard on her loaf pose 🤭

A quick reminder that TFG is a liar. He is saying and *trying* to do a lot of things - many of which are illegal. Not everything will happen. He wants you angry, distracted, emotional… He thrives on chaos. Keep calm as much as you can. Take some deep breaths. Rest. Create art. We must stick together

Pacific Knit Co. has released a free and appropriate knitting chart that sums up all the feelings we’re having. I think it’s brilliant. Her charts are a lot of fun, and it’s wonderful that she shares so many like this. Her message is spot on.

We urge the Senate not to confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of the Department of HHS. Kennedy’s long record of spreading misinformation about autism in particular and public health in general makes him a disastrous choice for this role. Here is a thread of some examples. #StopRFK

Here's the blanket I'm working on. I'm planning on making it 8x11 squares, so I've still got about 78 more squares to make. Gonna put a fancy border on it when it's done, might also put some kinda backing on it to make it extra cozy. 🧶

I thought I was crocheting frogs tonight, but… Did I just make Peanut Butter and Jelly or Grimace and Chicken Nugget?? 💜🧶💛

Okay. Going to start looking at more special interest stuff and sharing that. The news is starting to affect me, and I can't have that. What's happening here is insane. But I also can't have my well being affected either.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

AOC spot on , this is what leadership looks like.

🗣️ @jimacosta.bsky.social’s CNN exit sign-off:

CNN's Jim Acosta signing off: "I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too." I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too. Pass it on.

I'm sort of getting annoyed with the people saying I'm not going to be part of it this time and respond to everything he does. Sorry, you don't get a choice. It's your democracy and your life, or not. Time to wake up out of the stupor.
