Open enrollment for ACA plans began yesterday in Idaho.

One couple got notice that their monthly premium next year would jump from $51 to $2,232 as subsidies expire.

25,000 Idahoans are expected to be priced out of coverage.

This is what's at stake in Trump's shutdown.

If you were loud about Charlie Kirk and silent about Trey Reed and Corey Zukatis, maybe the tears, ashes and sackcloth were more about signaling to and aligning with power than about deep held beliefs on justice and mercy.

Parents and teachers of middle schoolers: are Saturday due dates a normal thing now? We dropped the kids off at grandma's Friday night (w/o school laptops) and kept them busy all day Saturday with errands--explicitly setting aside time on Sunday for her assignment -- only to discover it was late!

When your kid gets you hooked on Animal Crossing, only for you to discover she stopped playing, and the island will never progress because she’s the resident representative🫠🫠

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

It’s really weird to slide into the DMs of a writer to tell them they haven’t published recently enough, or promoted their past titles enough.
And yet, here I am: with someone in my messages critiquing the performance of an anthology I contributed to a couple of years ago. #writingcommunity

We have witnessed lawmakers killed for progressive beliefs. We have witnessed senators thrown to the ground and cuffed because they questioned. We have seen people gassed, shot, trampled for peaceful protest. And we came out anyway. Because quietly abiding hasn’t protected us. And we are many.

Was just reading through the bios of some agents on an agency page, and most had a link to a bluesky account listed. I clicked on one and was taken to [formerly twitter]
friends, it was a legit jump scare.

One thing on my mind is that humor and satire can be very powerful (and popular) in times like these. So out of the different WIP ideas I’m mullling over, my current project has the most potential. No promises that I can actually pull it off 😆

Morning #crpglasswings! I'm Nicky, and I'm currently querying a YA fantasy about a girl who's forced to live & work in the government building, & discovers a shadow monster killing staff at night.
I plan to use my #camprevpit time to begin drafting my new project: Shrek x Beauty and the Beast

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Can the #RevPit hive mind help me identify this sweet little number? I must’ve grabbed as a screen grab a long time ago because I came across it in my photos, but there’s no clue where I got it from.

NEW: ALA is going to court to stop the President’s attempts to illegally dismantle the Institute of Museum & Library Services.

The President does not have the authority to destroy a federal agency. That's why we're taking action with our co-plaintiff @afscme.bsky.social. #ForOurLibraries (1/3)

Millions of people took to the streets yesterday to send a message to the world that we do not consent to the destruction of our government and our economy for the benefit of Trump and his billionaire allies. Even during these dark days, remember that you are not alone. Solidarity.

If you're protesting this weekend, know your rights when interacting with law enforcement, including immigration agents.

Explain your book poorly: MC doesn’t want to live with family and then is super bummed out when she’s given a different place to live, which happens to be the same place her crush is. Shadow daddy isn’t swoony and maybe there are too many beautiful gowns for the ball.
