MA. Completely bewildered by our new world. Single parent, back to school at 40 & halfway through my bachelor's with a 4.0. Thank you so much for voting against my rights, my children's rights, & social safety nets we and many others rely on. /s FDT 🖕🏻

WE ARE RELIEVED TO HEAR A U.S. COURT HAS RULED THAT TARIFFS AGAINST OUR ISLAND WERE ILLEGAL AND A SPECTACULAR MISUNDERSTANDING OF GEOGRAPHY, BIOLOGY, AND REALITY. FLIPPERS UP UNTIL WE ARE PERMANENTLY SHOWN DUE RESPECT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER -PM Tuxley II

Hi, hello, yes, I finished season 7 of On Scene Radio podcast and this one came on and it's SO GOOD. Like I am not exaggerating when I say I am not a podcast person usually and this podcast is EXCELLENT. I can't wait to listen to more episodes. open.spotify.com/episode/4kSC...

🤣 legit almost fell off the bed laughing so hard

WHOA WHOA WHOA

I just really really REALLY hate RFK Jr, okay? Fuck.

Excellent speech on resisting the threats against public health, science and the dangers of misinformation from Harvard School of Public Health!

Explains a lot about where we are as a country that people are still willing to believe trickle-down economics is going to happen but ignore the dozens of massive, high-quality studies showing that just giving poor people money actually does solve their problems.

During the rollout of the COVID vaccines, the lack of testing - combined with a raft of misinformation - led many pregnant women to not get vaccinated. @propublica.org wrote this in 2022, but it's just as relevant now with RFK Jr's CDC changing recommendations for the vaccine.

It’s not possible for “illegal” immigrants to receive federal benefits like Medicaid. There are no examples of this happening; they just keep lying about it as an excuse to take healthcare from vulnerable Americans. I don’t understand why mainstream media chooses not to push back on this obvious lie

Uh... wait, what??

$24 for Nyquil-branded benadryl 😆🫠 I wish more people knew what the generics were for medications- like make a cheat sheet if you're not sure. Diphenhydramine - benadryl. Unisom usually only came in doxalymine, but now it comes in several forms of diphenhydramine too.

Insider trading? Would be nice to hear what Sen Markwayne Mullin has to say about this.

OHMYFUCKINGGOD

I have posted before about having very bizarre dreams. This time there were some recurring themes, but it was mostly a terrible vacation, made worse by the fact that when I was leaving I saw @katmabu.bsky.social driving a van to what my a beach cleanup I would be missing out on.

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

I want to offer a public apology to FDA head Marty Makary for calling him an ignorant piece of shit in a post last night. I just learned he is an islet transplant surgeon. Yes, the cells that produce insulin. I was wrong. He is not ignorant. This piece of shit knows *exactly* what he is doing.

President Sheinbaum just launched a national program to send 20,000+ nurses and doctors to provide free home care to every elderly and disabled person in Mexico. The U.S. could do this, but won’t. Because here, healthcare isn’t a right. It’s a commodity. And that’s the whole problem. 👇

To understand the life of a person with cPTSD, is to understand they’ve experienced multiple traumas and after each one, people normalized their pain, rather than making the traumas stop.

Nothing to add here tbh

Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.
