Sorry to interrupt the drama going on, but Aidan Oldenburg of Team Casper has been spectacular in his Olympics debut for the United States. He is statistically the top lead in the field through three games, curling 95.7%.

RFK Jr has to be a Fae with the way he's determined to find a loophole in his agreement with Bill Cassidy that "CDC will not remove statements on their website pointing out that vaccines do not cause autism." There's no rational explanation for the audacity otherwise.

Writing #PostcardsToVoters has shown me that there is ALWAYS a campaign that needs our help - even now, in the time between the last day to mail postcards for Election Day and Election Day itself. 🥰 #ThisIsWhatDemocracyLooksLike #AshForFlorida #FlipTN07
Colorful postcards with artwork by Eric Carle asking voters to elect Aftyn Behn in TN and Ash Marwah in Florida.

Spotted this fun orange coloring on a grosbeak that visited the feeder today - although I can't decide if it's an immature/non-breeding male or a female. Any more experienced birders have thoughts? (Southern MN, 5/27) #addBirder #birds #RoseBreastedGrosbeak #MNBirding

Writing #PostcardsToVoters tonight for #DanielleChesek for #ScrantonSchoolBoard! I highly recommend volunteering with @tovoters.bsky.social. Making a difference rn by using my (larger than necessary for one person) collection of colorful markers is literally *so helpful* for my mental health. 🧠🌈

The latest on the CDC lead poisoning prevention team layoffs: www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-.... Americans are already being affected by this decision. Note that CDC's lead work costs taxpayers less than $1 annually (about 44 cents/person), and no one else was doing it. #NHHM2025 #NPHW #PublicHealth

If you tell me you "aren't dieting" because you eat 1400 calories a day... That is, in fact, a restrictive diet and your body probably needs more calories. 💚 Remember to fuel your body so we can better smash the patriarchy, friends!

🧪Dear world, For those who actually believed Trump when he claimed we spent billions on TransGENDER mice, know that the term is transGENIC mice. These mice are what scientists use to study how genes function. Don't be part of the stupid class and repeat this out in public. Signed, all scientists

Transgenic Mice
Transgenic mice from Charles River allow researchers to study specific gene functions to better understand human disease and find potential treatment options.

The Iowa GOP advanced a bill making it a misdemeanor for a healthcare provider to administer a Covid vaccine. Even when a person has requested a Covid vaccine.
