Hi all. As many of you know, my kid is trans and is probably the most awesome person alive. I hate to ask, since I know we are luckier than most, but medical care in the US is a disaster & I can't cover this on my own. Please share & help Lou become the version of himself he wants to be. ❤️

The US has issued a new NOTAM (Notice to Air Missions) for the entire Venezuelan Flight Information Region, advising of a hazardous security environment amid worsening conditions and heightened military activity in and around Venezuela.

When I wrote about the ancient Zanclean megaflood filling the Mediterranean in as little as 12-18 months (!), it was wistfully.
I'm English. Lovely place, England, but Big Geological Drama? None of that round 'ere, sadly.
Imagine my delight at what geophysicists found in the English Channel.

Interviewing for the Operations Training Manager spot on 12/1. I did the job for the last 4 months, so my hopes are high. There are some pretty specific qualifications that not many people meet, so I might even be the only qualified applicant, which couldn't hurt my chances.

The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

i think the credibility of CDC is burned for a generation. it will be more feasible to focus our limited resources elsewhere. i don’t see CDC as being able to effectively lead public health responses or be involved in much policy at all after this
The latest update to US CDC's website on autism and vaccination is, sadly, a major blow to the credibility of this institution. Because it undermines faith in any impartiality. It's going to take a major effort to reconstruct its status, assuming it even survives the next few years.

This should terrify anyone who has ever considered actively resisting a potential tyrant. The 4th Amendment disappeared with the Patriot Act & a SCOTUS which has increasingly made it irrelevant. We can't communicate or move without being tracked, no warrant required.

AP article uses the word luminaries to describe Epstein. It drives me nuts when people whose job it is to use words effectively to convey meaning suck at it. Luminary generally has a positive connotation, but I suppose he was a person of brilliant achievement in sex trafficking & abuse.

Grand jury never saw version of Comey indictment the government filed
Interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan reprinted the document instead of showing a new one to the grand jurors after they rejected 1 count, DOJ lawyers told the judge.

I think this is one of the greatest political speeches in US history. The phrase "last full measure of devotion" gives me chills when I read it. Reminds me of the letter to Mrs. Bixby in a way - "to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom." 1/

I don’t use the VA’s online services anymore but, if you are a #veteran or are a caregiver who does. You need to know this. Not asking anyone to share this post. It’s just a FYI.

What exactly do those goober think would be in that food if they were served? More proof that Trump's goons don't see anything wrong with what they are doing.
I’m still struggling with the fact that ICE “brown shirts” went to a taco shop and thought they would get served.
