When you read these Epstein emails, you start to understand why so many prominent conservatives are obsessed with checking the genitals of children. It's a big thing for them!

Google is hosting a CBP app that uses facial recognition to identify immigrants, while removing apps that report the location of ICE officials because Google sees ICE as a vulnerable group. @evystadium.bsky.social has more.

I can look at Geometric period Greek art for hours, particularly the representation of horses. They were clearly beloved and are depicted with elegance and sensitivity.

Both photos mine.

Before the disgusting GOP cut SNAP and are now fighting court orders ordering them to quit their psychosis & feed Americans, they cut USAID which has already *starved 100’s of 1000’s of human beings worldwide to death.*

Barbaric isn’t enough to describe such depravity.

*Well* past “politics.”

I was recently in NYC and enjoyed a morning walk on the High Line. A giant pigeon statue (titled “Dinosaur,” by Iván Argote) was brilliant accompaniment on many levels.

The moon was glowing tonight on my walk with the dog. I missed the supermoon last night because of thick fog, so I was glad to enjoy a late viewing.

They also believed he was innocent of crimes because the DOJ never prosecuted him in a meaningful way, including for sedition. In early 2021, most Americans DID think he was guilty. That changed over three years thanks to DOJ inaction. They thought "If he were really a threat, they would stop him."

It is very clear the gutting of Teen Vogue is about silencing their excellent political coverage. Corporations want you uninformed and shut off from meaningful journalism. And they’re staggeringly successful at it so far.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

The Biden-Harris administration had moved to wipe medical debt from credit reports. Now this new rule will keep $220 billion in medical bills on Americans’ records.

I left my job yesterday and am starting a new one early in November. I will miss my coworkers and patients so much—they gave me heaps of flowers and a warm send off. I am grateful for all I learned and shared with them. I could not have asked for a better team.

I am CONFIDENT my Autistic traits came into play a million times & ways throughout this entire horror show of an experience

I assumed they wanted to keep someone who loved a difficult to love job

I assumed they cared about the regulations

I assumed they were being honest

None of that was true
