Keep. Making. Art.
It may feel weird or somehow improper to talk about your art or your writing, but we need it. It can’t be wall-to-wall nightmare all the time. Art is both counterweight and context. It’s escape and enlightenment and a mirror of our own exasperation. We need it. We NEED it. Keep showing us.

Version 2: Slightly less clumsy; slightly less overbroad; poorly implemented; blocked by courts; expired.
Version 3: Upheld.

you don’t have to be a bootlicker to get reliable information.
Man, it really speaks to the (lack of) value of access journalism when the biggest scoop in years in terms of impact -- Suspension of all federal grants -- is broken by an independent journalist...

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.
“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

Wrote about a Supreme Court case that could start a nationwide rollback on birth control rights. Braidwood v. Becerra is nominally about insurance coverage, but as we witnessed with abortion, making reproductive healthcare less accessible is a stepping stone to bans. My first in @democracydocket.com
The Supreme Court Could Gut Access to Birth Control This Year
Opinion | With Trump back in the Oval Office, access to contraception is, sadly, not something that people can bank on anymore.

Look, some people just accidentally do Nazi salutes.
It’s like when your car drives itself to your high school and you’re like WHY AM I HERE? Muscle memory is weird.

Trump’s anti-trans Executive Order is bad BUT it technically defines everyone as female. It states:
“'Female' means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell."
Since all fetuses "at conception" are female, Trump just defined EVERYONE as female.

It is reprehensible that the GOP is looking to put conditions on aid to California and play politics by attaching aid to the debt ceiling, just so they can give tax breaks to billionaires. This is extortion and it cannot stand.
