My first protest was a union strike with my dad at age 10 (my future high school teacher got run over by a scab). I marched during different administrations, phone banked, attended meetings, etc…the online do-nothings complaining about protests not being perfect enough for THEIR liking are my enemy.

you’ll pardon me if I listen to the American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology when they affirm that acetaminophen is safe for my pregnant patients over the opinion of a man who has zero expertise in, well, anything and sounds like a dying lawnmower when he speaks www.acog.org/news/news-re...
ACOG Affirms Safety Benefits Acetaminophen Pregnancy
"The data from numerous studies have shown that acetaminophen plays an important—and safe—role in the well-being of pregnant women."

Three vocal experts on rising authoritarianism/autocracy (especially in America) who I greatly admire - Marci Shore, Timothy Snyder, and Jason Stanley - quietly announced that they are all leaving the U.S. for Toronto. These very smart canaries have fled our particular coal mine and I am…concerned.

did any of y’all read “The Gift of Fear”? it teaches people how to recognize gut instincts in situations that are becoming dangerous/have potential for violence
one lesson demonstrates how predators proclaim “I would never do X” apropos of nothing to put prey at ease, but they are intending to do X

JD Vance: "The president has said clearly he doesn't think that military force is going to be necessary, but he absolutely believes that Greenland is an important part of the security not just of the US but of the world and of course the people of Greenland too ... this has to happen."

if you’re curious how our billionaire overlords are doing, Threads warned me against posting this…probably because it will make JD Vance cry like the baby back bitch that he is
side note, as an Arctic girl, I have to say that Vance complaining that Greenland is cold in March makes him a little baby back BITCH

I was doing pericare on my postpartum patient and she looked embarrassed and whispered “I’m so sorry…I didn’t have time to shave before I went into labor 😔” and I whispered back “it’s all good! I didn’t shave for you either”

As we get closer to the end of aurora season here in Anchorage, the northern sky will begin to glow orange at night since the sun will go less below the horizon. This was mid April 2021, one of the later dates that I've photographed the aurora.
Send clear skies.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.
