Thankfully I'm lucky enough to have access to therapy, and I can more or less get through each day psychologically intact. But it's gets grueling and it pains me to think of everyone out there like me who feels trampled by this darkness but lacks resources to cope.

It’s an anniversary we hate to see and feel.
Today marks six months since nearly 70% of staff at the National Endowment for the Humanities were fired without cause.
If you do nothing else today, please read and *share* this recent article outlining what this year, mostly without us, has looked like at #NEH.

Jeffries: I think Rick Scott has some history with medicaid fraud in the state of Florida. So he's no expert on health care. We ain't going to be lectured by Rick Scott about anything, but certainly not affordable health care.

I assumed that since Schumer asked for such a pathetically low number on the ACA extension (1 year) it would get whittled down to maybe four months and pinky promises.
But if this reporting is accurate, they're not even going to try for four months. They're just going to take the pinky promises.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

When the Democratic tent includes candidates like Spanberger and Mamdani, there is no crisis, or fight, for the party. IT’S A COALITION, NOT A POINT ESTIMATE.

i want to repeat this: mamdani and spanberger have run similar campaigns tailored to their respective electorates and it is maddening to watch political journalists attempt to create some broad contrast where none exist
the other thing about this is that there is no reason to pit these candidates against each other? each are good fits for their respective electorates and each shows the value of vigorous campaigns focused on the stated material problems of voters.

Democracy wins!
In a rebuke to President Donald Trump, Democrat Abigail Spanberger won Virginia’s gubernatorial race Tuesday. Her support for constitutional amendments on redistricting and voting rights restoration could make it easier to pass both pro-democracy measures.
