reading goal is 200 this year. i was adamant not to include fanfics (it be in the 1000s then😆) but i have to give credit where credit due when writers bless us with full novel fics.So new rule is ffs yes ✅️ if they are over 25+ pages. Then added to the list. #booksky #mdzs
I believe with all the discussion circling back to diet culture its so wonderful to see a female athletic being herself and showing a healthy love of food and their body. This was such a great interview 😭

AI systems are making decisions about who gets a loan, receives a job offer, is eligible for parole, and more — and often in ways that have a disparate impact on protected groups.

To ensure safety, trustworthiness, and non-discrimination, Congress must pass the AI Civil Rights Act.

By supporting the AI Civil Rights Act of 2025, Congress can take a monumental step to protect our civil rights in the digital age.

The House just passed a $900 BILLION defense bill.

Americans can’t afford groceries, rent, utilities, childcare, healthcare — but Congress somehow finds nearly a trillion dollars for the Pentagon without blinking.

Just heard disappointing news that @warren.senate.gov will co-sponsor the Kids Online Safety Act again despite overwhelming opposition from LGBTQ, human rights, abortion rights, and racial justice groups.

This is a horrific betrayal of her constituents, particularly trans youth and their families.

Jared Kushner is backing the deal.

ICE raided Augsburg University in Minnesota and allegedly pointed guns at students.

They didn’t have a warrant to be on private property, and students are shaken and left feeling unsafe.

At least one was detained.

They’re not going after criminals.

They’re grabbing anyone they can.

He’s being held in a camp without a bed or functional toilets.

He can’t see his wife or 6 American children.

He risked his life for America, and this is how they repay him.

The admin says that serving in the Armed Forces won’t keep you safe from ICE.

Traditional Medicare was the simple option.

In 2026, AZ, NJ, OH, OK, TX & WA will start requiring prior authorization for 17 services under a new “WISeR” pilot.

More AI, more paperwork, more chances to delay or deny care for seniors & disabled folks. This is a big deal. 🧓🏽⚠️

SCOTUS has allowed the Texas gerrymandering to go forward, and Rep Jasmine Crockett is being booted out of her seat.

She’s one of the fiercest opponents of Trump.

She fights for healthcare and SNAP.

They couldn’t beat her, so they changed the rules and got rid of her.

It’s totally normal and not at all strange that the Speaker of the House a) doesn’t follow the news and b) apparently doesn’t know anything about his boss being credibly accused or murder and violating international laws.

Most SNAP recipients work. They need SNAP because corporations refuse to pay a living wage.

The rest are disabled, elderly or unpaid caregivers.

People should be fed. Period.

I get why the media is focusing on citizens, women ("mothers") and children, but NO ONE deserves to be brutalized by ICE. Men do not deserve this inhuman treatment either, undocumented people do not deserve this treatment. There should be no qualifiers on calling for this to end.
