I also wished I'd counted the number of times Alex mentions not being claustrophobic.

Possibly one of my favorite sentences in a story: "That is horrifying and I want to go hone,"I said, although I pronounced it, "Ah, I see." Thank you @tkingfisher.com for What Stalks the Deep!

This is fascism. It’s time to release Brad Lander. What happened today mirrors the chilling ICE arrests of Ras Baraka and Senator Alex Padilla. It’s deeply troubling, because this is exactly what authoritarianism looks like.

This is not okay.

Please call your reps and say you oppose this.

Buried in a Senate budget bill is a massive giveaway to corporate developers and fossil fuel companies.

It forces the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management land in 11 Western states *every 60 days* until millions of acres are gone.

Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse.

Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse.

A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

To mark the 1st day of my 4th year without Alice I have an announcement:
I’ve joined up with a determined group of women working to change the narrative around trans people. Women standing in solidarity with our trans siblings.

Our first step is to ask cis women to read and sign our open letter ⬇️
Not in our name: Women in support of the trans+ community
Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

About five (? Years are hard) years ago, we finally got equestrian birds at my place. Still not sure what species, but they perch on horseback frequently.

If the Executive is breaking laws, not using warrants, throwing civilians and judges in jail cells without due process, the only way to fight that is for the Judicial to throw some law breaking Executives in jail cells.

Are the 2 branches equal or not?

Are they checks on each other’s power or not?

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs less to house people.
Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me
In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

Also I hope we're all on this same page

EVERYONE needs to be brought out of that El Salvadorian hell hole

they were ALL wrongfully deported.

I mean it's good to focus on 'And this guy was here legally and not ever a gang member AND they're Venezuelan'

but NO ONE should've been sent there

My copy has those pages swapped with ones from another book. I want to keep this copy (autographed) but the store gave me a coupon for a discount on a replacement. But they're currently out of stock.

🔥WATCH: Senator Wyden CALLS out Dr. Oz. at his confirmation hearing last week. BRAVO👏👏:

Sen. Wyden: Do you believe there should be a nurse in a nursing home 24/7?

Dr. Oz: As you know, that's a complicated question

Sen. Wyden: No it's not. We need a nurse in a nursing home. NOT too complicated. 🔥

WYDEN: I would like it in writing that you will lock DOGE out of the Social Security databases.

BISIGNANO: I don't know what lock DOGE out means.

WYDEN: Stop them. It's a simple concept. When you lock someone out you stop them.

Same, but I usually try to buy two boxes for them to donate.
