Abusing women almost feels like a badge of honor at this time in our country.

It breaks my heart to see men like Andrew Cuomo, DJT, Hegseth & more advance to greater power as women bear the cost.

Cassie’s testimony against Diddy is true bravery.

There is nothing "natural" about forcing women into domestic servitude. If it were, our government wouldn't need coercive legislation for women to adopt the submissive role.

Beautiful, heartrending patient narrative. These are the words we should be listening to, not the blustering incompetence of an arrogant, unethical man.

“In 1961, when I was just eight years old, I contracted measles. There was no vaccine available at the time. Like many of my classmates, I suffered through dangerously high fevers — mine reached 106 degrees — and nearly died. The disease left me almost totally deaf.” cc @jackiantonovich.bsky.social

Vaccination requirements kept our communities safe. Do not listen to anti-vaccine rhetoric. Do not gamble with your child’s health.

It’s so disappointing. I’ve tried to write about this; unfortunately, no one wants to take it. No one wants to hear these things, but if we don’t talk about it, nothing changes.

Why is critique of this administration considered political violence & hate speech, while violence against women is “just a joke” that we need to “stop getting offended over”?

“It's not a safe time to be a woman," said one of my patients. "With someone like that in power, abusers can basically do whatever they want to us."

Stunned Combs holds head in hands as judge unmoved by pleas for mercy

Mogul appeared shocked after sentence read out to hushed courtroom but prosecutors disappointed by 50-month term Sean “Diddy” Combs held his head in his hands and appeared to be stunned when a judge handed down a 50-month sentence in a New York courtroom on Friday for prostitution-related offenses. It was a sentence far less than the life term he potentially faced at the start of his sex-trafficking conspiracy trial back in May, but Combs appeared shocked by the outcome. The judgment came just minutes after Combs had pleaded with Judge Arun Subramanian that he took full “accountability and responsibility” for his actions, and stating that he was a changed man who would, if released, devote himself to his family and community.

Oh I feel that profoundly. What I went through after leaving felt almost as bad, and was definitely more infuriating. Glad you give a voice to these survivors — it’s so important
