Always leave crumbs though. Just crumby and crumbly, me. I got too much flour baked in or...something.

I wish doctors knew that patients can tell that you’re fed up and impatient with them. And remember that we don’t have any choice but to be there in your clinic, talking to you, paying you, hoping desperately to get answers from you

Why do republicans keep referring to the stock market in dollars instead of points?

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

For #caturday a medieval snail cat! 🐌 🐈

📕 This remarkable creature is depicted in the Maastricht Hours – an illuminated devotional manuscript produced in the Netherlands during the early 1300s.

Exoskeletons! Bionic leg braces! The wrong trousers!

Most of us do not want these things. The loss of being bipedal isn’t what grieves us.

It’s the fact that abled people just cannot help themselves making exclusionary decisions that DON’T NEED TO BE. Everyone benefits from ramps.

Yeah, hi, I’m a person with “mobility challenges” (excuse me while I hurl). What we want, by and large, are not expensive, heavy devices that will “help us walk again”, but ramps.

I know, it’s not sexy, as technology invented before Christ, but it is overlooked in favor of…this. Repeatedly.

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Annnd there she goes, now that other people have done the real work and she thinks the crisis is over, running to the head of the parade
Minnesotans stood together, stared down ICE, and never blinked.

i hope one of the downstream effects of what's happening now is more scrutiny on vague anti-trafficking campaigns that manifest mostly in public relations announcements where a big banks or something touts donating millions of dollars to police departments that no one ever hears about again
all I’ll add is Bondi, as Florida AG, used “fighting sex trafficking” to elevate herself—empowering cops at the expense of survivors. long before Trump she was like this

Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

One of every thousand American residents has been taken into custody by ICE in the last year.
A stunning detail the ICE chief shared in this hearing that was supposed to be a brag, except it isn't: ICE has arrested 379,000 people between Jan. 2025-Jan. 2026 -- but only 8,700 were suspected gang members or known suspected terrorists.

That's 2%! www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...

I had a great aunt we called Aunt Sherry whose real name was Rose. she had a brother everyone called Uncle Dutch, I have no idea what his birth name was. Their brother Aleck had two daughters, my Aunt Doody (real name Edra Lee) and Aunt Bird (again, no idea what her birth certificate says)
Baffled by transphobes insisting that the name on your birth certificate is Your True Name Forever when it was common in my grandparents' generation to just...pick a name you like and use that, nbd. I literally found out both of my grandma's birth certificate first names FROM THEIR OBITUARIES.

I can confirm this is true and I can also say that the lack of an eviction moratorium is fueling this trend.
Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Next time somebody tries to get me to justify the existence of the humanities, I’ll just point out how for the past two Super Bowls we’ve all jumped online and engaged in collective semiotics and hermeneutics of the half-time show as text.
