Absolutely- 4 degrees, practiced medicine in the Tricare system, active duty and now VA care - it all has only made me feel more strongly that all Americans deserve this (to me that’s at least healthcare, education, basic income for cost of living).

I’m not done with the series, but Ep 7 is one of my favorite things I’ve seen on TV EVER. I’m a tarot girlie & I am a sucker for an unconventional timeline & explaining prior moments, but what a gorgeous and powerful episode of tv. I gasped at one of the final scenes, and may have shed some tears.

NHANES runs mobile clinics that travel the country measuring height, weight, & blood pressure while collecting blood and urine samples. These samples are our only national source for tracking everything from blood sugar to hormones, heavy metals, and more. The entire operation has been eliminated.

I know it’s an ongoing, multi-dumpster fire out there, but this totally normal, not-at-all inflammatory email was sent out by the VA to veterans in the past week.
Screenshot of an email from the VA that reads: As you may be aware, funding for some government agencies, including portions of the Department of Veterans Affairs, expired at midnight this morning.
President Trump opposes a lapse in appropriations, and on September 19, the House of Representatives passed, with the Trump Administration's support, a clean continuing resolution to fund the government through November 21.
Unfortunately, Democrats are blocking this Continuing Resolution in the U.S. Senate due to unrelated policy demands.
During the current lapse in funding, the vast majority of VA benefits and services will continue uninterrupted, but the government shutdown is not without consequences to VA.
Here is what you need to know

My heart kind of hurts for women & all targeted folks currently serving, how this might impact them.

There is so much evidence - and people continuing to make it - that diversity makes organizations better, including one like the military. And I just cringe for how far or irreparably the latest antics and focus are going to set everything back. Like maybe Army/DOD really is a toxic organization

And it seems too possible that the facial hair stuff is just going to be a thinly veiled excuse to unfairly target BIPOC men serving. And there’s nothing failed about the targeting of LGBTQ+ and especially trans soldiers.

Thinking about how recent years seemed like, “ok yes it still sucks but some things have gotten better for women in the military, it’s just some toxic mil & vetbros holding things back, but they’re the minority.” But now toxic mil/vetbro culture is the out loud desired goal.

If you’re rich and not a coward, this is what you’d refer to as a “market opportunity” to dominate a media ecosystem that’s about to be covered in grotesque government slop. To be a pop of color in a sea of beige will be easier than ever. People will flock to it. You gotta be a little brave, though.

A program in Flint, MI, gave $1,500 to any/all pregnant people and $500/month for the first year of their infant’s life. Among the benefits, those babies experienced lower rates of prematurity and low birth weight, which resulted in fewer NICU admissions, saving the city of Flint $6.2 million/year.

Fascists do not believe in free speech as a universal principle. Free speech is a tool they'll happily use, but they don't think everyone should have it. They don't believe in universal moral principles at all. Rights and privileges are for the in-group, obligations are for everyone else.

I’m already exhausted by the “consider the full context” folks, as if comparing cars and guns isn’t disingenuous at best, and still doesn’t change that some of us believe the number of acceptable deaths from gun violence is zero. Not to mention there’s no good context for any of his bigoted remarks

The conversation we’re not ready to have yet is that having empathy for a white supremacist is part of what upholds white supremacy. And by that measure alone, it fails to be empathy at all.

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man. Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent. We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate. My latest piece.
