The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

This has to be my top fave meme I've made to date 😂 #thegoodplace #ehlersdanlos #eds #edsmene #EDSer #zebrastrong

Image description: A two panel image shows a character, Michael, from the Good Place. He appears to be speaking quite emphatically. Captions read, "You're about as useful as my connective tissue. It's an EDSer insult. It's devastating. You're devastated right now." End image description

I haven't posted here for a while, so here's a bit of dark humor to, hopefully, lessen the pain 😅😂 #eds #ehlersdanlos #meme #edsmeme #zebrastrong

A two-panel meme featuring characters from The Simpsons. In the first panel, Bart is sitting against a pole with a pained expression. He is labeled "my joints." The caption reads, "This is the worst injury of my life."
In the second panel, Homer leans down and pats Bart on the shoulder. Homer is labeled "EDS," and Bart is still labeled "my joints." The caption reads, "The worst injury of your life, so far."

Why would any tourist come to the US Olympics or World Cup if there's even a 5 percent chance they can be detained by ICE for not having their passport or papers on them?

Please believe me when I tell you: Double the fuck down on your spiritual practice now. You are going to need it. And no, that doesn't have to be a prayer-god thing. The thing that sustains and nourishes you. That makes you more alive to yourself, the world, others. More present. More:

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

I've said it many times before and Andrew Cuomo is making me say it again: we don't have a cancellation problem. We have never had a cancellation problem. To the contrary, we have a problem that "disgrace" is a very temporary embarrassment— an brief entr'acte more than an intermission.

Progressives get steamrolled all the time in Congress. We are an outnumbered bloc, especially on matters of defense. Shouldn’t be hard. They know this isn’t “lefty” opposition. It is BROAD opposition from the American people across the board. The numbers show that. That’s why they’re pushing it.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.
