If you need a break from Earthly bullshit may I present to you some cosmic gloriousness? I suspect it may help.

1/ The FDA announced today that they are removing the black box warning from hormone replacement therapy ( #HRT). This label was added in 2002 after early studies showed increased stroke & breast cancer risk, but new research revealed crucial nuances: timing, dose, and delivery matter.

not sure what democrats thought the reaction would be to their plan and these condescending followups. this is life and death for some, or the difference between a home and eviction for others. what were they thinking
How does your pathetic "plan" keep me alive through 2026? How does it pay the premium increase I face? How fucking dare you come on here with this bullshit.
1. We need to fight hard for a good ACA extension early in December and hold Republicans fiercely accountable if they betray everyone.

The U.S. military is being used inside the United States. There's a lot we don't know about how, why, and under what authorities.
Today, Lawfare is launching a new project–which includes a tracker and a map–to follow where and how the military is being domestically deployed.

They are all fucking with our lives and I am furious! MAGA knows they can play the Dems and the Dems know they can play us because we do not want MAGA. When it comes down to it, does anyone in the government actually care for us? I feel like a business transaction via taxes at this point.

Public sides with Dems blame trump & repugs for shutdown
Public rewards Dems with sweeping election wins
Dems capitulate

I can't speak for all Americans but I can speak for me: I don't want either a democracy or a republic. I WANT A DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC! I don't want either the 1st amendment or the 2nd upheld. I WANT THE ENTIRE US CONSTITUTION! I don't want either red or blue. I WANT THE WHOLE DAMNED RAINBOW RESPECTED!

They're my constituents, too @shaheen.senate.gov.
None ask me to raise healthcare costs. None ask to see their neighbors kidnapped.
And they understand - when explained - you cannot cut a deal with a GOP that routinely lies.

I don't think Schumer allowed it.
I think he ordered them to vote Yes.
Republicans needed eight Yes votes. How many did they get?
Exactly eight. None of the eight are up for reelection in 2026. Two of them resigning. That's no coincidence.
