Format's the same of one of my best: I would rather smother every baby in the NICU with a pillow before I give a single dime out of my paycheck to [my healthcare employer] Foundation

Listen to this! egcunningham.bandcamp.com/album/open-s...

Hey friends, today marks the release of my debut album, Open Seasons. I hope you’ll give it a listen! For the next week, Open Seasons is available exclusively on Bandcamp. I’ll be donating half of all proceeds to the Merced County food bank here in central CA. Link in bio. Many thanks and much love.

No matter how you voted in last year's election, no one voted to destroy the Postal Service. But the new administration plans to break up the Postal Service and sell it off to private corps. Here's what you need to know + how you can help save the public Postal Service.

One of the most incredible protest signs I've ever seen. A Japanese American woman folded a huge origami crane to honor the children of Japanese American internment camps & protest current ICE camps. 📸 permission at the Vigil to Stop ICE Expansion in Dublin, CA 4/16/25 ✊🏻 NEVER AGAIN IS NOW ❤️

I wonder if it's healthy to see everything saying THE END IS FUCKING NIGH and then trying very hard to pretend none of that is happening long enough to complete a task and then checking again and repeating that all day every day

Immigrants make America great

Did an experiment to see if Stormy actually enjoys singing his song by putting it on a puppy button. He kept pressing it and howling to it! Had to put it up after the fourth time 🤣🐶

It's time to start reminding people: LILIES ARE DEADLY FOR CATS. The leaves, the petals, the stem, even drinking a bit of vase water or licking a few grains of pollen from their fur can cause fatal kidney failure. ⚠️ www.fda.gov/animal-veter...

HOW'S THAT CAKE, YOU CHUMP BITCHES

Reminder that Congress can stop this shitshow anytime they want.

they don't actually want to 'rewrite the Social Security codebase' or whatever, they just want to destroy it going "wow, not really possible, hehe they don't know what they're doing" is less useful than saying "their only intention here is destroying Social Security"

Elon Musk is trying to steal our federal government - slashing public services, firing civil servants, & handing power to billionaires like himself. Sign up here to pledge to stand up against this illegal attack on our public services & dedicated federal workers. actionnetwork.org/forms/f9de37...

Jorkin it while in the throes of melancholy, call that alasturbating

If you're a US historian who'd like to do this but are unfamiliar with the process, hit me up & I'll help you identify your target publication, write your pitch, & get your piece into that sweet, sweet 600-750 word range. (Pro bono in case that wasn't clear). It's my literal job & I'd love to help.

You should care about disability justice because it’s the right thing to do. There’s no justice without inclusion. If that doesn’t convince you, remember that everyone is only temporarily abled. If you live long enough, you’ll become disabled. It can happen in an instant & no one is the exception.

Elon Musk’s cuts to Social Security are leaving millions of retirees and families unable to access their benefits. How is this making things more “efficient” for anyone? wapo.st/3QLvidV

my friend and i share 9/11 jokes wherever we can find them and she found this art of bert and ernie watching TV on morning of Sept 11th, I mentioned how I would hang it in the main walkway and she showed up today with a gift. can't wait to hang this bad boy

My only very slight errata here is to amplify what's contained in "discovery". It's not just FOIA. It's what happens when that intelligence officer reviews the discussions and realizes, "They just treasoned. I think I have to report this." Trump already had that happen.

White House says no one will be fired over the Signal scandal because no one involved was trying to cure cancer.

Just left VMs for my two US Senators

Re-upping a li'l DIY tip: if you are making stickers at home—to share information with your community, say—and all you have to print on are label sheets that don't match the design, you can print across the sheets, cover the front with clear packing tape, and cut out any size or shape you desire
