Watching reels of adoption events where they line of the adopters and let the dogs pick their families. Folks sobbing when their dog finds them. Because everybody needs to feel chosen.

I think both cities and rural areas are the "real America", but caring about rural areas means caring about human rights including rights of immigrants, air and water quality, and climate change. And caring about cities means caring about exactly the same things.

Reminder that the federal government was once the largest employer of Black women in the country.

DOGE fired so many Black women that it massively spiked their unemployment rate.

Good words to know, @ellen-friedman.bsky.social. "Gloaming" is too seldom used. "Yclept" is good. "Apricity" is just wonderful.

You deserve access to abortion care if you are pregnant and do not want to be. Full stop.

Your reasons are your reasons and they are good enough.

Abortion is healthcare and everyone deserves healthcare access.
You don’t need a traumatic or tragic story to deserve abortion care.
