Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.
So much work remains to be done.

This year has felt like 9 months of babysitting somebody else’s kid and they’re making you play a boardgame you don’t wanna play and making up the rules so only they can win and also they’re screaming the whole time and their parents aren’t coming home anytime soon and you’re paying them $150 a day

This is deeply charming, and at a moment in which the rest of the internet feels full of dread and misery, you might need this little pick me up in which the next mayor of Seattle describes herself as “dumpy” and goes to Goodwill for a new wardrobe
A lot of people have been calling me the

The defunding of USAID was the American Wannsee, the moment the ruling party’s psychosis and disregard for human life led them to choose to kill millions of innocents for its own sake. There is no normal politics possible after that, and no one has understood that yet (not even me, at a gut level).

I was explaining to my Ukrainian colleague the phrase ‘There’s no such thing as a free lunch’. She told me the equivalent in Ukrainian is ‘The only free cheese is in the mousetrap’ - which is so much better

2025 is a whole different animal. The response has been strong and immediate. We had *preemptive* mass mobilization.
By millions of people who *aren't* being targeted by raids, jailing, and deportation. (Yet. 🙃)
That's never happened in US history before. This is different.

Endorse this idea, big time
The only reason there is a need for this bill is the insatiable greed of for-profit health insurance and pharmaceutical companies.
“This is going to be terrible,” said Brian Mayo, executive director of the Oregon State Pharmacy Association. “Patients have these huge lines and delays. They’re going to have to travel even farther, especially with rural communities."
No relief coming for Oregon’s struggling pharmacies as bill fails
Lawmakers couldn’t find a compromise on a bill to regulate pharmacy benefit managers.

👀 Scoop: Trump and Republicans want USPS to sell off its brand new EVs and chargers.
That would mean literally **ripping up post office parking lots** to auction off assets with no private-sector value.
It’s buried in the Senate’s “One Big Beautiful Bill.”

As of June 1, nearly 25% of the people arrested by ICE in the interior and sent to detention had NO CRIMINAL RECORD.
Data from the last six years, including 1.5 years of Trump's first term, reveals how this is completely unprecedented. It also helps explain the growing backlash.

Fun fact: when the midwife for my first kid suggested I bring a movie to watch during labor, Galaxy Quest was my comfort movie of choice. My labor was way too fast to even need it, but it was there for me! 🤣

BREAKING: A federal judge ruled all transgender and intersex people can obtain passports that align with their gender identity while the case against President Trump's executive order proceeds.
While this is good news, we will continue fighting until this executive order is blocked permanently.
