Hello, Fellow Butterflies & #Flatties! One of the things that social media is great for, is a warm and supportive #CancerCommunity. We cheer each other on, grieve together, and joke together, because many of us get through this beastie with dark humor.

I fulllly expect, under Bobby Brainworms, to die of some vile Oregon Trail disease. Typhoid, cholera, maybe bubonic plague.
Most folks in the Holocaust did not die of gassing or execution.
They died of disease and medical neglect.
The US is following the same path.

FOUR new deaths in ICE detention. That puts the total this year at 30 people dead; the highest in ICE's history and worse than even during the COVID years.
It's clear that the system is breaking down. Many of these are preventable deaths.

Cisgender kids need gender-affirming care, too. Surgical, if they have a botched circumcision, or genitals are injured via car or other accident. Pharmaceutical care for early onset puberty or gynecomastia.
ALL kids should be able to access the medical care their doctors deem necessary.

Under the proposed rule issued by the Trump Administration today, any Medicare- or Medicaid-participating hospital would be barred from providing gender-affirming care to *any child*, even if the care is not paid for by Medicare or Medicaid.

We do a terrible job in this country supporting folks who have addiction and/or mental health issues.
However, we DO have NAMI.org. NAMI offers support, education, & resources to families in this situation. I just donated to them, and I encourage you to do likewise, or find a way to volunteer.

Can we get him to make personal appearances for them, too? Because that worked SO WELL in Wisconsin.
Musk has started backing Republican fundraising efforts for House and Senate ahead of the 2026 midterms, Axios reports. He’s described as a “significant donor”.

They're already doing it, if not yet on a broad scale. For now, citizens harassed and detained by ICE are collateral damage.
Trump’s and Miller’s ICE plot is to deport as many people as possible. Once they reach the impasse that 15 million people cannot be deported they’ll move on to disappearing, enslaving, and exterminating. By that point they won’t be focused on only undocumented people.

I don't disagree with Susie here.
If only there had been rational people - say, Secretary of State, or Chief of Staff, with influence over someone with the power to stop that destruction - say, a sane and rational President - this whole mess could have been averted. #SelfOwn

Wholly unsurprised. Monsters gonna monster.
An ICE agent in Ohio was arrested for strangling a woman. But police records show a woman had accused him of strangling her and beating her back in APRIL. He was not arrested back then. She called the cops on him 22 times! This is who Stephen Miller says should be immune from prosecution.

Another good reason to use Tidal, which I love.
"If everyone who streamed All Hell on Spotify had done so using Tidal instead, we would have received an extra £31,847.38, which would double the amount we made from streaming of the album in this time period. Or if everyone used Apple Music it would have been £12,331 more."

For some women who undergo mastectomy for #BreastCancer, reconstruction with implants is the right decision.
Sadly, too many women don't receive a FULL and complete explanation of what it entails, long-term.
