You know egg prices are out of control when you can use your Weis gas points to get them for 2.99 (originally 10.79)

Those of us who know @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social like the blue leaders across PA, we know he will fight for ALL Democrats on the DNC. Hearing he won is a sigh of relief. He came to Rural PA this past year and he LISTENED to us in ways that others didn't.

I plead with elected Democrats to understand that if you don't deliver 100% unconditional resistance to every single action of the Trump administration, the disastrous outcomes they produce will be blamed on you.

The new administration is trying to delete us from existence. If you are trans, you deserve to be here. You deserve to be seen. It's sickening to see us methodically removed from everything.

They destroyed the research for our community on May 10th, 1933. We cannot lose the medical progress that has happened since. Don't delete the PDFs, don't throw out printed copies. They are going to purge next.
BREAKING NEWS: CDC orders mass retraction and revision of submitted research across all science and medicine journals. Banned terms must be scrubbed.

Goes beyond MMWR +other CDC pubs. Applies to research already submitted to top medical journals.

Take a look.

Pay attention now to which companies are cutting their DEI programs and then will focus their marketing in Feb. on Black History Month, March on Women's Rights, & June on Gay Pride, and etc. Don't subscribe to their capitalist greed against marginalized communities.

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**

* Currently paused by Executive Order
** Grant reviews now all canceled

Egg prices are soaring again. Here’s why and what to expect
Bird flu has killed millions of hens in recent weeks, shrinking the supply of eggs and hiking up prices at grocery stores.

Four examples of Democratic messaging since yesterday. I know which one I'm supporting. And voting for.

The biggest fault about where I live is that if this house was 200 feet down the road I could have my own chickens due to municipal ordinances. Maybe if we could have chickens that would solve the cost of eggs problems here, maybe it would just make the whole town smell of chicken poop.

Hey everyone! Incredible news!

Trans Scouts selling GS cookies this year on my list have sold over 50,000 boxes of GS cookies!

If you want girl scout cookies, consider buying from a trans girl scout this year! They'll mail them to you!

This is literally my fav thing to do every year :)
1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts?

Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from.

Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

Seth Moulton wanting to make concessions on rights of trans people cuz he doesn't want his daughters on teams w/ trans women is funny to me- I would then be playing on the team instead of them. In HS I was squatting almost 300 lbs. and already had facial hair. Maybe then I would have made varsity.

This is your mission. We take our power back now at the local and state level. Stop waiting for a national hero. It’s you. Get to work.

It's happened, I am old. I just told someone, "Back in my day, school wasn't delayed for the temperature. You just wore more layers," and I didn't even register what I did until it was done.

Make one of your 10 year resolutions to vote out representatives who no longer represent the communities they were elected by. Even if they're your own party. That's what primaries are for, use them wisely.

Friends, Donald Trump ordered raids on humans in our community. This is an unfathomable attempt to target certain cities like San Antonio; to spend tax-payer dollars on removing parents from their children. This is not humane & certainly isn’t Christian-like. Instructions ⬇️

If you aren't taking action, stop complaining. There are so many things you can do- like run for local office in 2025. Unsure where to start? Reach out to your local Democratic Party!

For the party that's so "back the blue," they sure are happy that 1500 rioters against the Capitol, including ones who beat Police Officers, are pardoned.

For those on my FB and saw the post I made on tiktok but wanted to share here this screenshot I was sent by a friend. I don't use the app but this is disgusting for me to see. He's not president. He called for the ban in the first place. They are creating a narrative that isn't democracy friendly.

Multiple things are true at the same time:

1) The bill banning Tik Tok should not have happened.

2) The connected photo is how we got here.

3) TikTok did not have to shut down last night or post the message it did. This is all BS to curry favor with the next admin and pretend they saved it.

Off to State Committee tomorrow...
Looking forward to seeing all my fellow County Chairs and State Committee Members.
As the youngest chair, it is incredibly exciting that PAYD will be hosting the National Convention this summer in Philly. If you're going to SC, PAYD has a fundraiser Friday night!

PA is truly beautiful, from my short "hike" yesterday at the Shikallemy State Park, overlooking Northumberland County. Unedited beauty.

This New Year, take some time to spend more time in your local nature places.
