The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned.
And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized.
I refuse to sanitize him.

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore.
Make it make sense.

Took a break from here and all the news for a bit. Had major surgery last week and now bed rest to recover. Should fix some of the issues I have been having.

There goes our fall flu vax. This year’s vax kept me and my two younger kids from getting the flu when my husband and oldest got it. I have multiple chronic illnesses, and asthma and depend on my yearly flu vaccine.
NEW:
“Kennedy paused a multimillion dollar project to create a new Covid-19 vaccine in pill form on Tuesday, and the Food and Drug Administration canceled an advisory committee meeting on updating next season’s flu vaccine.”

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.
Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.
Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.
See how this works?

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen.
1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.

Hey, Dems in Congress, the reason we keep calling & asking you to do more is b/c we need you to do more. From our POV it looks like there’s no strategy & we elected you to represent us. If there’s something you need us to do, tell us & we’ll help but whatever you’re doing now isn’t working.

“If a married woman hasn’t paid $130 to update her passport —assuming she has one, which only about half of Americans do— she may not be able to vote in the next election if the SAVE Act becomes law,” @wendyweiser.bsky.social tells Glamour
The SAVE Act Could Stop Millions of Women From Voting. Here’s What You Need to Know
The bill would make it harder for women, people of color, young voters, and other marginalized groups to register to vote.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

The rush to destroy things like USAID and other agencies before lawsuits can stop them is to make it moot. When our stupidly slow judicial system finally moves to stop them it will be far too late. If all 10,000 USAID employees are home and projects abandoned it’s done. It’s evil.

Yo. This is my friend Alyssa. She is one of the most amazing humans I know.
Say it with me: Trans Rights are Human Rights.
If you can't say that, fuck off! You're just as responsible for the hate crimes against and criminalization of trans folks as the biggots who commit those heinous acts.
