This is of course awful but surely we can all appreciate how odd it was to the New York Times that someone would give a damn about ensuring accuracy before publication.

Them: "How are you feeling?" Me: "Everything is awful, but I'm mostly numb to feeling anything at all at this point? Dissociating, mostly." Them: ... Me: "...I meant it's fine. Everything is fine. How are you?"

i fully thought i wouldn’t see gay marriage legalized before i was 70 and then it happened when i was 20, when it was STILL pretty unpopular this has happened with every single rights issue. stop telling trans people it’ll get better if they just keep accepting punches until cis people get tired

DA confirms they will go to the grand jury to seek first degree murder charges after they have time to review evidence. Under Minn. Law, 2nd degree was the highest charge they could bring by complaint (w/o GJ) & they needed charges to get the arrest warrant they used Sunday night.

People die everyday from medical neglect. Believe these stories when you hear them because often they don't make the news until they are tragic. And even then they don't.

the rational assumption for most people at this point on seeing agents of the state is that there’s a good chance they’re going to kidnap or murder you, whether they’re real agents or fake ones this is America

Genuinely, we may be headed toward - let’s say a lot of collective action. Giving your allies covid or becoming disabled by long covid is about the worst own-goal you can imagine. Please mask today.

So this week we’ve had a man impersonating an ICE agent tie up a woman and steal $1000; a man impersonating a police officer assassinate a top Democratic politician & her husband (and shoot another Democrat & his wife); and a man impersonating a king hold a military parade for his birthday

However much you trust or don't trust police, "if someone claiming to be a cop comes to your door, call 911" is good advice for America in 2025.

One of the upsetting things, I'm finding, of having store bought cortisol is that it doesn't build up unless I choose to. But I know it should be there. So there's a weird disconnect during times like this.

I was already angry at the world and then I got to spend my lunch break playing Schrodinger's "we don't want to cover your meds because you're trans" with my insurance (and I think my doctor is not doing great at their end of this process).

These are job loss penalties. They call them "work requirements" because they are trying to trick you. So, what exactly are job loss penalties? They kick people off Medicaid by creating administrative traps, cut ppl off from care if they lose their job or can't prove work, punish poverty & precarity
