It’s nearly impossible to set up a tiny home in IL. It’d help if we could fix that.

The EPA just rolled back limits on cancer-causing "forever chemicals" in drinking water — and handed your health to the states. Whether your water is safe now depends on who controls your state legislature. Public health is on the ballot for every state in 2026. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/18/c...

It’s not funny that the most terrorizing race in all of history thinks the are superior but they are only half right. The are superior evil doers. So many examples but remember this one on this Memorial Day.

I adore irises, especially historic varieties. Their variation in color, foliage are almost endless. I call this one “Mr. Stripey”, having forgotten its proper name. It didn’t bloom until the 5th year after planting. It’s a delight every time we’re gifted with blooms. #iris

US politics depends on an informed public. It’s been getting harder to know what is happening w media censorship. I used to follow Twitter for breaking news. Now Bluesky is an important substitute, with timely, dependable sources. I can’t get that from X anymore. I can block & mute here.

Where exactly is the center between “women have the ability to make medical decisions about their own body” and “no they don’t”?

Your body and mind are your greatest, most irreplaceable assets. Learn to love and respect yourself. You are the only one who can take care of you. Own that, unapologetically. Set boundaries. Sleep. Eat good food. Move. Mind what you put into your head.

How did the Secret Service fail *so* spectacularly with so many members of the line of succession in the building?

If he was already there, he and his luggage would have been subject to search. It’s routine.

Massive failure on the part of the Secret Service.

Presidential events don’t work that way. Everyone & everything entering the building is scanned days before. Lockdown starts way before an event with this many members of the succession chain in one building. Think of who was in the building. This would be a massive failure of the Secret Service.

What’s the heat source? Videos dropping poop on us, shooting your constituents in the face, cutting food and housing for the poorest and disabled might be the source of that “heat”.

Autistic adults are much more likely to die from suicide. A 2023 study found 42% of autistic adults reported suicidal ideation in the last year, 18% reported attempts in the past year. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... This admin wants to destroy everyone who needs SSI to survive.

The stuff we used to be able to do without pay we can no longer do, because it’s no longer possible to devote large amounts of unpaid time to caregiving and still have housing and eat.

Tell them to stop eating lobster.

I suspect this is intentional. Depleting ready forces via illness strengthens the case a draft is needed for defense purposes. Palantir has already been banging the drum for mandatory universal service. I can’t help but see a pattern here.

Carolyn S @chicagomom.bsky.social · 21/04/2026

Maybe they could stop buying pallets of lobster and grand pianos, stuff like that. That might work.

Trump said he wants to “take” Iran’s oil. Is that the “transaction” for which we’re awaiting “completion”, after which our soldiers get to come home?

More scary than old ppl eating out of garbage bins, or children working night shifts in factories, or watching your loved one die because they were rationing medicine they needed to live? Maybe she should get out more.
