I’m famous! 🤣 So cool to see myself (and the top of Sadie’s head) in the news, attending the #NoKings rally. I feel so inspired after hearing the incredible speakers. Virginia *is* going to be the end for Trump and his tyrannical administration!! www.loudounnow.com/news/thousan...

Can’t wait to dig into this. Season 1 was incredible. Season 2 is sure to be just as intense and so, so important. We must listen to women.
At a Chicago hospital, a nurse’s excruciating C-section sets off a reckoning: why is women’s pain still so hard to treat? "The Retrievals: Season 2" rolls out like a real-life medical drama—fans of "The Pitt" and “E.R.,” don’t miss it. lnk.to/retrievals2
The Retrievals
C-sections are the most frequently performed major surgeries in the world. So why do so many patients feel severe pain during them? Season 2 of the award-winning podcast “The Retrievals” is an investi...

Indeed. Obviously anyone who voted for Trump lacks basic empathy and intelligence. I expect nothing less of them. But FUCK YOU to all y’all who sat it out. You knew better. You made this happen.
I’m mad as hell at all the smug people who sat out the election! If you thought Kamala would have been worse, then fuck you!

When you use up scarce law enforcement resources going after cooks and farmworkers, and put a bunch of unqualified lackeys in key leadership posts, can you possibly think you're making America safer? ICYMI Will Selber:

This congresswoman co-chairs the House Pro-Life Caucus. She was an ardent supporter of Florida’s year-old abortion ban. Now that she’s been negative affected by that ban, she’s identified whose fault that was: abortion supporters.
Exclusive: Rep. Kat Cammack says doctors last year hesitated to treat her ectopic pregnancy. She says the left scared medical professionals by stressing that they could face criminal charges.

Rubio: Forget about intelligence. We certainly have. Intelligence has no place in the trump administration. Now greed, cruelty, racism, homophobia? Plenty of room for them with us.
Host: Are you saying the US did not see intelligence that the Supreme Leader had ordered weaponization?

Rubio: That’s irrelevant

Host: No, that's a key point

Rubio: No it’s not… Forget about intelligence

Will Trump’s greatest legacy be a seven dollar gallon of gas?
The Iranian parliament voted to close the Strait of Hormuz.

Oil and gas prices are going to skyrocket even more.

Bravo, Donald Trump.

If you’re an American should watch the Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown ep on Iran. A deeply humanizing look at a country full of people just like you and me. I watched it after Anthony died and it moved in ways that are hard to relay. I also immediately ran out to try kabob koobideh and tahdig.

This is so incredible.
Trees can communicate to each other through a myecelium web in the ground that is a massive network, which older established trees can use to transfer nutrients to young, heavily shaded saplings that aren’t receiving enough light to get their nutrition from photosynthesis alone.

A bunch of Gen Z who didn’t have to live thru “you’re either with us or against us” from the lowest days of the War On Terror and about to experience a reality tv version of a speed run. Enjoy, children!

The article frames Skrmetti as a poor strategic gamble by activists. In reality, Tennessee passed a categorical ban applicable solely to transgender adolescents which was framed in sex-based terms. The choices were (a) challenge it or (b) concede defeat in advance and abandon trans teens nationwide.
The NYT decided to kick trans people in the teeth the day after Skrmetti. They wrote a hit piece blaming trans people for their own oppression and attacked the people who have fought hardest to stop this effort to eradicate us.

They turned to Brianna Wu to further their narrative.
