Reminder that things are in fact worse quality for more money, that no, Elder Gen Z/millennials/gen x, you're not imagining it, nor should you accept it as "the way things are." Shirts I've had 30 fucking yrs are still wearable, but a shirt I've had 2 months & worn MAYBE twice is already unraveling

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

PUBLIC HEALTH ORDER
NEW MEXICO DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH
SECRETARY GINA DEBLASSIE
AUGUST 29, 2025
Ensuring Availability of COVID-19 Vaccine for the 2025-2026 Season

THIS ORDER supersedes any previous order, proclamation, or directives to the extent they are in conflict. This Public Order shall take effect immediately and remain in effect until such time as it automatically expires one year from the date of issuance, or until such time as the New Mexico Department of Health Cabinet Secretary rescinds it.

ICE detains husband of Democratic congressional candidate—who is also a disabled U.S. Army veteran. He is wheelchair bound—after suffering severe injury during training for deployment in Iraq. Agents arrested him at his naturalization hearing—he is already a green card holder.

I am urging Marylanders to prepare for potential flash flooding and severe storms this afternoon. The greatest risk for impacts are along the I-95 corridor and upper Eastern Shore, but all counties, except Garrett and Allegany counties, are currently under a flood watch.

"If you don't do things perfectly there's no point in you having done them at all; in fact, it's worse than having done nothing" is one of those things that kill any and all progress, and it's wild to see it proliferate online.

FWIW the founders largely did not believe the constitution gave us rights. They believed it affirmed our rights. There was a debate about whether to include a Bill of Rights for just this reason.

Stephanie Dray @stephaniedray.bsky.social · 27/07/2025

People who don’t believe in inalienable human rights do not live up to the founding ideals of the nation. I don’t have to hate them to observe that they do not share a fundamental American belief.

Stephanie Dray @stephaniedray.bsky.social · 26/07/2025

The Declaration of Independence asserts some rights are inalienable. That is, they cannot justly be transferred, revoked or taken away arbitrarily by any governmental authority. You have rights by virtue of being a human being. Anyone who says otherwise is Un-American.

I see grocery/takeout shaming discourse going around again, so this is your periodic historian reminder that cooking from scratch daily while working has never been sustainable, and for millennia everyone either relied on takeout & restaurants or ate in huge households w/ big dorm-like group dining.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.
