To my UK loves, protect your uterus bearing people. This is horrifying.
The government's war against bodily autonomy continues. No doubt copsucker Kieth Starmer and failed abortion Wes Streeting are right on board. Scum.
"Police have been issued guidance on how to search women’s homes for abortion drugs and check their phones for menstrual cycle tracking apps after unexpected pregnancy loss"

"...police could bypass legal requirements for a court order to obtain medical records..."

For over half a century, the National Weather Service has operated 24/7. But after the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency pushed to shrink the federal workforce, that’s no longer possible in parts of the country.

Hey, if you struggle with self-image/body issues like I do, saying out loud “Aging is a privilege that not everyone gets to have” helps me recenter myself and releases those negative thought gremlins when I hate what I see in the mirror.

Hope this helps someone else the way it helps me. 🫶🏻

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

If you’re changing the definition of human rights, it means you plan on violating people’s human rights.

Can it be possible that they have started moving even FASTER than they did at first? This is getting more and more horrifying. And disgusting that they are using Jews as shields to justify shutting down our freedom to protest in this country.

Eliminating the CDC’s HIV prevention division would be a disaster. Significantly less resources, a rise in HIV cases, more babies born with the virus, and countless lives lost.

Um, hi, this is called retaliation against a federal judge or officer, which is illegal. They investigated you because you broke the law. They are allowed to do that. Do not fall for his rhetoric or this democracy will fall with you.

Well, if my life chills out a little, I'm joining an election campaign next year. Both my senators betrayed my trust and this country. I'll be backing someone with a spine for midterms.
Shame on you Chuck Schumer, John Fetterman, Kirsten Gillibrand, Maggie Hassan, Gary Peters, Angus King, Catherine Cortez Masto, Jean Shaheen, Brian Schatz, & Dick Durbin! You abandoned us. We will not forget!!

As my partner says, "I work full time just to stay alive." They literally cannot have a job because their disability requires so much work daily that there isn't even a ton left to spend on family and hobbies. UBI should be standard and disabled folks should get SS ON TOP of that.
“You’re so lucky I wish I could sit around all day”

Every disabled person hears this at some point in their lives

Disability is NOT a vacation. It’s an unrelenting full time. No evenings or weekends off. No OT. No manager you can complain to

It’s a constant fight for dignity, care & survival

If your rep voted in favor of censoring Rep Green, find a replacement and join their campaign. Those capitulating to the Nazis are choosing to become Nazis. History won't be able to tell the difference and neither should we.
Anyone wonder why the Black-bodied Rep Al Green
was censured by Congress for shouting truth to evil during Trump's SOTU while the white-bodied Rep MTG was not censored for screaming LIAR during Biden's SOTU?

Yeah, don't put on those rose colored glasses about past president actions. Just because they didn't usher in fascism doesn't mean their hands weren't covered in blood.
pretty sure i grew up during the same time and i seem to remember a few pesky things about weapons of mass destruction that didn't exist, hundreds of thousands of dead civilians, gutting welfare, drug criminalization that fueled mass incarceration, a job-killing trade deal, what am i forgetting?
Hard to believe I grew up at a time when the biggest Presidential crisis' were misspelling potato in 6th grade, yelping too loudly at a campaign stop or whether or not they lied about a blowjob.

Zelensky's take-down of Brian Glenn over the suit question is underrated.

Low-key told the man he overpaid for a cheap suit.
