Another unvaccinated child has died from the measles in Texas.
There are over 600 cases in the US right now.
Letting children die to a completely preventable disease is absolute insanity.

Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

This is a flat-out, clear-cut violation of the First Amendment.
Associated Press: “Today we were informed by the White House that if AP did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, AP would be barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office.“

Where are all the voters who sat out the election or voted for this POS that were SO concerned for Palestinians?? WHERE? Where is that passion and outrage now that actual ethnic cleansing is being whitewashed in front of your eyes??
REPORTER: There are many Palestinians who are going to want to go back to Gaza and feel like that it is their right to do that
TRUMP: We don't think that's gonna happen. We think people are gonna be very happy, thrilled

I'm a one-issue voter and it's "we absolutely need to let banks do mortgage fraud again, it's important." So this is a pretty big day for me.
Russell Vought, the acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and one of the authors of Project 2025, just ordered the agency's staff to effectively cease all operations in an org wide email.

I’m really REALLY trying to avoid the news cycle because it makes me feel all panicky so when I hear anything at all about the BS going on in the WH I think about Season 2 Episode 3 of Severance, and tr to unpack “See, they don’t have pouches”. #severance #resist

Mabel found out about @Target and others ending their DEI programs. We both believe that companies who end them this easily never believed in them in the first place. Congrats to white men for once again taking more money and more promotions, often without merit, from women and POC.

The artist, David Cohen is an Asheville-based artist/musician and resident of over forty years. His cartoon work spans various subjects ranging from local issues based in Asheville to more national political events and even to one-off, word-play-oriented jokes. ❤️ Give credit to artists when you can.

Behold the menagerie of canines that rule my house. Bean, AKA Lady Doom (in front) is the CEO of my house, we all just report to her. Also, growing up in the USA with the concept of American Exceptionalism has made it easier for the GOP to divide us.

This is my very photogenic rescue dog Stella who was advertised as a shy dog who likes to take naps in different places. She is also rambunctious and bossy and gives a million sneaky kisses every day. PS Gun violence is the number one killer of children in the United States. #MomsDemand

I hope that no one minds that I will be posting lots of doggy pics to try and save my mental health over the next couple days. Get ready to really know my ridiculous pack of dogs. This is Mabel and my mom cheating at German Rummy.

My heart is breaking for California. We lived there for 5 years and LOVED every minute. Amazing people, art, humor, landscape, weather. Here is my nephew from Germany blending in on the Santa Monica Pier. #California #SantaMonica #WeirdAssReligiousPeople

Mabel’s new thing is being part of my piano practice, she gets up on my bench, demands face cuddles, hits the keys once with her paw, then stares vacantly outside for birds. #EnglishSetter #Dogs #Piano #GargoyleNamedGary
