The Trump admin is planning to strip healthcare away from millions of Americans by proposing new criteria for who can and can't receive Medicaid. Please CALL YOUR SENATORS/CONGRESSPEOPLE. Tell them they work for US. And we demand they protect our access to healthcare. 5calls.org/issue/protec...

as usual the person doing the firing of the person who shouldn’t be fired is the actual person who should be fired.

Lots of folks are feeling overwhelmed and scared right now and say they don’t know what to do. Wear your masks, y’all. It’s one of the easiest, radical anti-fascist acts you can do.

truly one of the only good things to come out of my long covid journey is that when I got sick in may 2022 I decided to brush up on my french in case I needed to flee the US but also to help with my cognitive rehabilitation and now I’ve improved my old high school skills so much

my garmin watch always thinks I’m riding a bike or swimming when I’m pushing a stroller and walking fast 😂. the bike I maybe understand bc my hands are still but my legs are moving and my HR is up but swimming?? it’s literally when I’m pushing my niece around disneyland lol

scout’s friend mango went home and now poppy is visiting! look at @onthattightrope13.bsky.social ‘s baby next to my now adult finch 🥺

I’m cryinggg look at my & @wildlyenchanted.bsky.social ‘s finches having a little sleepover 🥹

recovering from being sick, already have long covid, period due in a few days, the world is a mess… the discomfort and pain never ends and I am stronger than a marine

I cannot emphasize enough how we are in an era where everyone is to be treated like disabled people have always been treated.

It’s extra important for your GOP senator to hear from you right now if you’re in one of these states. Call your senators and tell them to vote NO on Kash Patel’s nomination for FBI director: indivisible.org/resource/cal... Or send an email to your senators: act.indivisible.org/sign/demand-...

this is the book we’ve been reading in my virtual book club, and it’s been so incredibly constructive and grounding amidst neverending chaotic news. in March we’re reading Women, Race and Class by Angela Davis. anyone is free to join! fable.co/club/lefty-s...

Courage can become contagious.

if I had a dollar for every person I met and was like “omg kindred spirit, we just get each other” and it turns out they have adhd, I’m guessing I would have enough money to pay for an adhd evaluation for myself

what if enough people stop flying out of fear of the lack of FAA regulations that we accidentally solve a large part of the climate crisis and then the administration has to figure out new ways to kill the planet and our response to those ends up with us like ending fracking or something

I just added more things to this list today: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

One of my absolute favourites.

If we live long enough, most if not all of us will become disabled. By age, pandemics, illness, climate catastrophes, organized abandonment, interpersonal or state violence, and working ourselves to injury/death. Disability injustice & defunding social support & healthcare are bad for you too.

what in the Pinocchio is this

I love when my sister is cleaning her room next door to me and I just talk to her like it’s a podcast and she’s forced to listen

ok after the SNL line about only 2 of the past hosts committing murder (I assumed one was Alec Baldwin), it turns out the two they were referencing are OJ & Robert Blake. so I had to look into Robert Blake & omg it’s insane. please read about his crazy wife who died. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonny_L...

got some kind of mild flu/cold despite me doing nothing risky and no one sick around me. apparently it just flew into my face on a breeze since flu A is so high right now. but nothing actually feels mild when you already have long covid and asthma. my health management is exhausting.

a little under the weather so I’ve been in bed reading a romcom all day and listening to the heavy rain and it’s so lovely

if you need me I'll be shouting this from the nearest rooftop

It's official: Robert F. Kennedy Jr, an anti-vaxxer, AIDS-denialist, and conspiracy theorist has been confirmed to lead the Department of Health and Human Services. This is a highly partisan move that will harm all people in the US. We must commit to fighting his disinformation as he takes office.

FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE UP TO DATE ON YOUR VACCINATIONS NOW.
