Having metastatic breast cancer and taking care of myself are two full time jobs. As a retired chef I cook the most sumptuous meals for myself. Frankly, I deserve it, for my remaining time I’m feeding myself so well y’all would be green with envy, if you only knew.

Violet Affleck: "To confront the Long COVID crisis I demand mask availability, air filtration and far-UVC light in government facilities, including jails and detention centers and mask mandates in county medical facilities. And most importantly, the county must oppose mask bans for any reason." 🔥🔥🔥

Mushroom, ricotta, garlic scape tart. Super flavorful, serve with a nice tomato salad or what ever green salad you like.

For profit prisons are civil rights violations en-masse. It's conservative politics gone completely full circle corruption. Prison Corporations given profit motive for more "crime", conservatives make sure the prisons are full.

I’m sorry my eyes are old but did you just say “youth prisons” like for children?
July 2020: to preempt a campaign to close the final 5 state youth prisons, the IL gov's office announced a 4-year plan for transformation, intended to close (or IDOC transfer) at least the 3 largest. July 2024: None are closed. Issued a press release about hiring for a new, 6th youth prison.

Wanna bet all these local news outlets that are advocating for Biden to step down are owned by hard righters? Why call for a guy who had a bad night but not the convicted felon? The adjudicated rapist? The tax cheat?

Boy howdy! This right here👇
I sometimes see people discuss the American left as being intrinsically self-sabotaging, and it feels like any discussion that doesn't factor in the extent to which the mainstream reflexively shuts out and frequently actively crushes leftist activism is wilfully naive.

Perhaps I’m naive to the “jump off the building” suicidal ideation but wouldn’t bungee jumping be a good practice run? You’ll know for sure if that’s what’s up or if you need further assistance say from a medical professional that can let you know your brain is lying to you.

There was lead in EVERY tampon they tested. There was less lead in organic tampons, but those had higher concentrations of arsenic. Also fun: It's 2024. This is the first ever study testing metals in tampons. Great. 🙃 www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/tox... Study: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

This is the first time they wrote it down in book form for people to keep and refer back to. This time four years ago they didn’t even have a plan, now they have a text book. Remember, if you don’t write it down you’re just screwing around.
I don't get it when people point out that Project 2025 is "nothing new." Yes, obviously, right-wingers have been fanatics for decades. They were blowing up abortion clinics and shooting doctors when I was a kid. But, as you may have noticed, their political vision has kind of been coming together.

If you steal $1000, you can be sent to prison. When health insurance companies steal $50,000,000,000, they get tax breaks, subsidies and government contracts, while the people they steal from die or go into debt. But keep blaming immigrants and poor people for rising crime.

If I write the word “close,” which do you hear in your mind: close or close?
