PSA: Everyone please make sure you are getting annual skin checks and checking yourself regularly for dark or changing spots. I got diagnosed with Stage 1A melanoma this week and thankfully it was caught early enough and I’ll be fine. PLEASE wear sunscreen and watch those moles!

"While the wildfires were raging in California, Ben and Ted Cruz had a podcast where they just attacked Governor Newsom and Karen Bass—that was while the fires were still raging. So spare us the grandstanding and virtue signaling about how this stuff shouldn't be partisan."

If Christian Nationalist parents are allowed to have their kids opt-out of any books that dare mention anyone gay, then all the other parents should be allowed to let their kids opt-out from the Ten Commandments.

I'm still not over yesterday's obscene SCOTUS decision that our government can deport people to prisons in countries they're not from. How is anyone walking around going about their day?

For 3 decades we've been told that more regular & deadly mass shootings is price we pay to keep personal military weapons, necessary to check an authoritarian government: but as masked unidentified thugs kidnap people off the streets, our "well-regulated militia" does nothing to protect our freedom.

MAGA doesn't realize we live in a world.

Tourism is down, Republicans are attacking immigrants, scientists, & foreign students. The best & brightest are leaving.

RFK JR is attacking vaccines, which means diseases will spread.

White supremacy remains undefeated when it comes to self-destruction.

I need y'all to get it out of your heads that Indigenous societies were primitive and simplistic.

That's colonial thinking, perpetuated to justify the creation of the colonial state in order to "uplift" and "educate" Indigenous folks

It's pure BS
