I keep thinking about how terrible it is that so many people will be losing their health insurance in January due to costs and cuts. I was rejected from insurance once before the ACA [preexisting conditions]. I was hospitalized that year and it almost bankrupted me. We need universal heathcare ASAP.

Feeling very stuck in the anger stage of body grief this week, so this helped
I don’t think I can *actually* say it yet? But knowing it’s possible to say it feels comforting somehow.

Gonna be even more earnest than usual on main, but I wanted to share. Because I have a bunch of pain stuff I was in my thoughts about it, and I said to myself, “I have to show love to my body. My body is doing the best it can.” so if anybody needs this, it made me feel good to say that

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

I love it when people act frustrated because I can’t explain why my body is doing a thing, like I know right? Doesn’t it suck? Send help.

Trying out a new PCP's office, and their "preferred language" dropdown on the intake form is time-traveler inclusive.

In South Minneapolis, Minnesota, nearly two dozen neighbors confronted and surrounded ICE goons after rapid-response alerts were issued. The goons were questioning an East African man when the situation escalated, and they eventually left the area without making any arrests.

NT bosses giving orders that don’t make sense,
Getting context they didn’t consider, then giving different orders that make even less sense, ,
Do they have secret reasons that make it make sense??? Why is it a secret??? Just give us the story so we (competent) can do our jobs???

The Honduran-born Charlotte resident filed a police report after the officers let him go.
Racial profiling, no warrant, no due process; but what else can one expect from a regime committing extrajudicial murder on the high seas?
Trump's gotta go.
