I love baseball, animals, clean air and water, universal healthcare, reproductive rights, bad music, movies, walks in the forest, and appreciating the simple things in life, like a joke that makes you laugh until you cry. I'm a nurse in self-exile.
In a world of Scott Adams, be a Charles Schulz.
IT'S GIRL SCOUT COOKIE TIME!
Here's a great way to support the cause in an extra helpful & delicious way. This Girl Scout troop is compromised entirely of homeless girls.

Can we just be clear about this? If you capitulate to pressure from fascists when the fascist are gaining power, that doesn’t make you “responsive” or “balanced” or “politically savvy.” It makes you a collaborator.

A point I've made before but: if Elon is willing to personally order accounts he doesn't like banned for no reason - an unambiguous action that everyone will see - think about what they are doing behind the curtain with the algorithm that shows you tweets and decides which of your tweets are shown to others.
Shameful to see the College Board cave to the demands of DeSantis and white supremacists, especially as we kick off Black History Month. Just shameful.

If you don’t want to do the math, that’s about 15,000 Americans still dying from COVID every single month.

Let's hope she makes more history as the person to BANKRUPT #MangoMussolini and his spawn with her civil suit against them.
