1. The Arizona legislature passed three anti-trans bills... but they did not become law.
That is because Governor Katie Hobbs has just vetoed all of them.
They would have barred birth certificate updates and banned colleges from mentioning gender identity.

me to the united states: this could be us but you playin’
A former French military base, Vauban is a thriving neighbourhood of 5,500 residents connected to Freiburg town centre by bus and light rail. Built in the late 1990s as a radical experiment in low-car living, it forgoes virtually all on-street parking in favour of active, green, and social spaces. 🧵

1. A Federal Judge has blocked Trump's under 19 trans care ban nationwide.
In the decision, he slams the Government's reliance on the Cass Review, jeopardizes youth health, and likely violates several constitutional principles.

Got put on hold while trying to call my Rep’s office and their hold music is a Kenny G style saxophone riff of “America the Beautiful.” Absolutely hilarious.

want to feel old? there is a single specimen of the mushroom armillaria ostoyae in oregon that stretches over a range of nearly four square miles and is estimated to be 2400 years old. this has nothing to do with your age. your age is not important. you are free

I keep hearing about how exercise makes you more energetic, makes you sleep more, and makes your life easier. Is there also a phase in which you are a low energy goblin or is that just me? #weightlifting

Somebody yelled at me for posting about Ganymede instead of /the state of things/ last night.
I know we’re (almost) all on the same page here, but a Bluesky without cute cats, science facts, and dumb jokes would be bad for everyone.
