"In an era where fundamental reproductive rights for women in the United States are under constant threat, weight-centered gynecological care will only further reduce the already limited options...we should certainly ensure that all health care, at its core, is inclusive of all bodies."

Three months to drop pounds or no more reproductive care? In this economy?

Private company buys a public good. A few years go by and the company decides the public good is no longer worthwhile; the public suffers as a result.

This story arc is way too common in modern society.

We’re close to losing Sesame Street, a show that was started to provide free educational media to marginalized kids in our country.

That’s not an accident in my opinion and it’s just one more example of how Capitalism robs our society of the sweet and good things we build to care for one another.
HBO has declined to renew “Sesame Street” for new episodes. The series that’s been teaching generations of little kids since 1969 now has no studio.

Please consider donating to Sesame Workshop to ensure the residents of 123 Sesame Street are still around to teach kids of all needs and backgrounds.

On a stretch of reading my back list bodice rippers for the last 30 days. Just finishing HER ADVENTURES IN TEMPTATION and I love Myrtle with my whole heart. @meganf.bsky.social writes the best heroines 🥰.

I’ve officially had 1 month without my little dude George. I still look for him 💔. Feeling pretty down about it rn, so here’s a pic of his cuteness.

Reminder from one of your indie #booksellers: Amazon sells physical books at a deep discount because they sell them at a loss, meaning they entice you with the books and make up for the sales with cheap add ons. Indie bookstores can’t thrive in this model.

Also, unlike Audible, you actually own the audiobook files instead of leasing them, as Amazon’s model is designed to do. Fellow romance addicts should also check out the Kiss Club: libro.fm/kissclub 🥰

Writers with ADHD: what are your strategies for getting started for the day when the executive dysfunction is sending your brain everywhere? Too many ideas and not enough focus lately for this one.
