For the first time in his life, Donald Trump tells the truth during his Tylenol press conference:

"We've got a lot of stupid people in this country running things."

Trump: “There's a rumor & I don't know if it's so or not—that Cuba, they don't have tylenol because they don't have the money for tylenol, and they have virtually no autism”
Cuba had an autism rate of 83.30 per 10,000 children in 2023. The US rate was 80.90, the same data shows."

Jilya didn’t bring home the chocolates at the WA Premiers Writers Awards, but so honoured to be shortlisted for non fiction book of the year on my first ever go at writing.
Nice to be sent an official pic too

And most of these orders have been stopped by legal challenge

George Takei @georgetakei.bsky.social · Sep 6

He seeks to rule by decree because he cannot govern within the law.

Gun violence is the leading cause of death in children in America

Yet after every school shooting there are calls for more guns.

There are more guns than people in America

Walz says Harris "would have been a fantastic president... we wouldn't wake up every day to a bunch of shit on TV. We would wake up to an adult w/ compassion & dignity doing the work, not a manchild crying about whatever is wrong with him. May his fat ankles find something today. Petty as hell."

I’m travelling & listening to @drtracywesterman.bsky.social as she tells her story in her book Jilya.
Get onto it folks.

Hearing about 16yr old Tracy reading her uni entrance score had me in tears.

A big F yeah to young women smashing dreams and ceilings!
