Y'all, I've been cheating on you! 😬 Threads has me in a chokehold for #Nicolandria discourse, edits, jokes, and more. Are y'all having fun with #LoveIslandUSA"s star couple of Season 7 too, or should I check back in later?! #TeamOlandria #TeamNicVans #TeamNicolandria #BlackSky
a woman with braids wearing a necklace that says kailei
Alt: A racially ambiguous olive skin-toned woman wearing a red floral dress or top with a deep v-neckline is making a 😬 grimace as the camera zooms in closer to her face. She is wearing her in 2 large braids. The braids hang down in front of both of her arms. She also has on multi-layered delicate gold necklaces and a pair of thin medium-sized gold hoops.

“A dark-skinned Black woman thriving with a supportive white male partner disrupts the expected narrative, making her success a target for shade rather than celebration. The focus reveals bias more than authenticity”

I've seen people either saying, Oh corny. Or, oh he's just running for President. And my thought is, AWESOME. Let the 2028 Dem Prez primary be about who can fight against Trump and for our democracy and our rights the most effectively and aggressively and let it begin today.

Newsom on ICE action outside his presser: "It's pretty sick & pathetic. It's everything you know about Trump's America & the authoritarian tendencies of the president. Wake up, America. You will not have a country if he rigs this election. You will a president running for a third term. Mark my word"

This is much bigger than Costco. Anti-abortion activists are coming after all reproductive health tools, including condoms. The GOP cult is backing all of their nonsense to make it law. Your reproductive health is no longer your choice. This is not a safe country to live in as a woman anymore.

Very bad news from Costco. One of the groups orchestrating this pressure campaign is Alliance Defending Freedom, a Christian Nationalist law firm that is hellbent on reshaping US society.

The ADF coalition "now turns its focus to CVS and Walgreens."
Costco Won’t Sell Abortion Pill as Religious Investors Declare Win
A coalition of faith-based activists had pressured the retailer to not offer the abortion pill mifepristone in its pharmacy locations. The group now turns its focus to CVS and Walgreens.

“Approximately 850 officers and agents were surged across the city. They made a total of 23 arrests," Press Sec. Leavitt told reporters. For reference, the D.C. police average is 58.7 each day.

Almost no one has been arrested because D.C. isn’t actually a crime-ridden hellhole.

Ohio parents of kids with disabilities are receiving letters from the school board demanding they pay “extra” for their disabled children.

This is ableism and discrimination at its finest.

They weren’t even given adequate warning. Just 17 days to pay up.

Hyperfocus and inertia are the same nervous system.

They're YOU.

We design ramps to start and exits to stop without wrecking your week.

5-week AuDHD cohort. Small group. Pay as you can. All welcome

www.theautisticcoach.com/audhd-group-...
Bright orange background with bold black title “The AuDHD Experience Workshop.” Text below reads “Five weeks for autistic–ADHD adults – Sundays starting September 7” in black. Red subheading “With Matthew @theautisticcoach.” Four color-coded boxes: teal (emotional profiles, triggers, meltdowns, burnout, getting needs met), white (safer unmasking, social navigation, self-advocacy, balancing hyperfocus and unfocus), pale yellow (reclaiming special interests for stability), and lavender (interoception, sensory profile, tools for overwhelm and recovery).

RFK's Covid vax misinfo/disinfo fueled the distrust that has made public health folks' jobs harder & more dangerous. Now, he's using the lack of trust to justify dismantling our public health protections. My latest @opinion.bloomberg.com (🎁 link):
