Instead of addressing the high cost of living, unaffordable health care, and lack of financial opportunity, House Republicans are pushing the SAVE Act: a bill that would restrict millions of women who changed their last name after marriage from casting a ballot. #HandsOffHerVote

I want you to understand this is happening in our name and we know most of these men committed no crimes. One is a professional soccer player who was tortured in Venezuela and was working through asylum in the U.S. ICE shipped him for his Real Madrid tattoo and a picture throwing rock & roll horns.

Life is SO uncomfortable and I understand why people hate thinking about and dealing with all the bad things happening, but the discomfort exists to tell us that we’re being hurt just like out pain receptors do when we’re touching a hot stove. It’s a signal to take your hand off the stove #politics

I don’t buy books on Amazon. Leftover from my previous life as an indie bookseller.

If you are freshly anti-Bezos, some of my favorite options:

📕 Buy Locally! Hopefully you still have a local bookshop.

📕 Bookshop.org

📕 Audio: Libby, Hoopla, Chirp, Spotify.

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.

This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.
