Cutting nearly a billion dollars from Medicaid will be disastrous for the health of our nation. Over 72 million individuals are enrolled in Medicaid. This is 21% of our population. That means 1 in 5 people will have less access to care, care coverage and/or care treatment. This is unconscionable.

They are using “DEI” as their buzz word for non-White man. This isn’t about who’s good enough for the job, it’s about who’s white enough and “man” enough. And the silence of most of our elected leaders tells you how many people in our government are OK with this.

I was watching the bizarro CPAC footage of a drugged out musk and every time he spoke, literally EVERY TIME, Jobi would bark incessantly at the phone. They say dogs are good judges of character. This time the subject is so bad that doggo could sense it through the screen.

This is fantastic. Would love to see @bsky.app add some unique features that haven’t been done elsewhere or an alternative to features being done at the bad places that haven’t been replicated yet. For example, being able to replicate groups or communities would help get people off Facebook.

Keep making noise about the danger Trump, Musk and the GOP is putting EVERYONE in. Deadly infectious diseases don’t discriminate between party lines. What this fascist regime is doing is unlawful, terrifying and frankly inhumane.

Incredible investigative journalism revealing how Texas’ 6 week abortion ban has led to a significant increase in maternal mortality. In other words, the Texas government is causing pregnant women to die preventable deaths. Not only is this not pro-life, it is evidence-based pro-death.

Given the high mortality rate of pancreatic cancer, this is a really, really, really BIG deal. Another reason why blocking access to vaccines and decreasing utilization of them due to the spread of lies is a very deadly matter and also a really, really, really big deal.

I am going to heed the advice shared by many to protect wellbeing while being more productive by redirecting my anger to focused action in my area of expertise, which for me is healthcare & health equity. Looking for some helpful guides on initiating community organizing, as this is new to me.

Every post about a corporation losing money over their cowardly capitulation to a literal fascist and traitor is giving me hope. The almighty dollar is almighty for a reason. It’s our power and we need to wield it wisely. Bonus: will help me keep my house less messy.

You don’t need to keep up with all the awful. You can and should step away. We need you. And you need rest. Our brains aren’t meant for this.

Our president is a traitor to the United States. The people of this great nation aren’t going to put up with this any longer. Congress, do your job and remove him now.
