Okay folks we’re getting a starter pack! Interact with post/reply with your favorite drug if you want to be added! (The correct answer is ketamine)
You know what I love about @ologies.bsky.social is that it’s 6:30 in the morning and I’m sobbing over a mountain lion that I didn’t know had existed but will never, ever, forget. RIP P-22. I can’t wait to visit LA and learn more about him.
Love how I just now got an email from Spotify about Lorde’s new album AS IF I DIDNT KNOW THE MINUTE IT DROPPED

She is not “likely dead in the eyes of the law.” She is dead both legally & in the sense her body cannot even perform basic functions like breathing or sustaining a heartbeat without invasive intervention. They are animating a corpse to let cells multiply in it. It is horror worse than Frankenstein.
The Atlantic should be ashamed of publishing this nightmare piece from Liz Bruenig, whose callous dismissal of Adriana Smith's dignity is one of the most shocking things I've ever read.

I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles
Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

Many of the most progressive spaces and movements are in the South and Midwest. They are often silenced by racism and gerrymandering, but they show up with little national support. Folks surprised that people in “red states” show up to protest should never forget that you can’t ignore “red states”.
Proud of my town in Deep South for organizing against hatred. Think what you will but not all of us voted for this shit
If I had a nickel for every pediatric clonidine overdose in the last month I’d have three nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it’s happened THRICE???

ACOG @acog.org · May 27
ACOG is deeply disappointed by HHS’s move to drop COVID-19 vaccine recommendations in pregnancy. The science is clear: COVID-19 remains dangerous in pregnancy and vaccination protects both patients and newborns. The vaccine is safe and protects families. Read our full statement: buff.ly/OGue7sO
All I wanted was to see the LWYMMD snippet in handmaids tale but realized I would have zero idea what was going on I restart the series only to find myself spiraling about how not far off we are from this line of thought 😵‍💫

Still fuming about that press conference. The way RFK Jr. talks about autism is not just scientifically wrong—it’s deeply offensive.

Calling autistic kids "damaged" or implying they’ve been "lost" or "stolen" doesn’t just spread misinformation—it dehumanizes real people.

So far there have been three measles deaths in under six weeks in the ongoing US measles outbreak.

Prior to this year there had only been three measles deaths in the United States in total in the entire last thirty years.
Third measles death
This is not normal. For three reasons.

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.
