Seriously, if you cannot fathom or accept the possibility that your children might be LGBTQIA, or autistic or neurodivergent, or just different from you as a person then do not fucking have children.
Notice what this administration didn't do. It didn't argue the food insecurity numbers were wrong. It didn't publish a competing methodology. It just canceled the survey and, in its own words, called three decades of USDA data collection "fear mongering."
That's the tell running through every example in this piece. Not correction. Deletion. A pregnancy risk tracker the CDC used to fight infant mortality, made inaccessible through staffing cuts rather than any stated policy change. The CIA World Factbook, gone. Weather balloon launches quietly reduced in the western United States until meteorologists themselves started saying their confidence in the models had eroded.
Jerome Powell called it "driving in the fog" last year, when a government shutdown delayed jobs data the Fed needed to set interest rates for the entire country. That fog isn't an accident of budget cuts anymore. It's becoming the operating condition. When the public can't see the data, the public can't check the claims, and an administration that doesn't want its claims checked has just found the cheapest way to arrange that.
Racism really thought it was posting a flex. Instead, thousands of women over 38 turned the replies into the most wholesome timeline on this app. ❤️
Every quote tweet is another beautiful woman proving confidence, kindness and joy age far better than hate ever will.
The internet won today.
@Dreamgazer31@ClaraElenaDice Thank you so much! After having skin cancer when I was 38, I became super vigilant about sunscreen and also I recently discovered Korean skincare lol
He did not take medical leave, he was completely awol with no communication and should have been expelled. But this is the fuckass state of things now when an elected official can just disappear and not experience any repercussions
🚨SCOOP: Republican Rep. Tom Kean repeatedly voted against legislation to give Americans paid family/medical leave, before Kean took 4 months of paid medical leave from Congress for depression - all while somehow finding the time to raise himself $160,000 worth of campaign cash.
This is retired Army Staff Sergeant Sean Ortega, the first openly trans service member. He served three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan and was involved in 400 combat missions.

ADHD’s worst symptom isn’t distraction, it’s paralysis. Knowing exactly what to do, being fully aware, and still sitting there watching yourself not do it. That silent shame is the part nobody talks about.
@neon_heartbeat What the fuck is 'traditionally feminine' anyway? It's like a completely made up term that bears no resemblance to the reality of the huge diversity of women throughout history.
There's a secondary level of bias as well because I doubt it's inclusive to woc
Went to my ortho doc because my hip was hurting and not getting better. Got an MRI - I have a small labral tear plus a more serious issue: avascular necrosis.
So I may end up needing a hip replacement.
My expectations for 2026 were low, but fuuuuccck
There is no world in which this is okay.
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito did not recuse himself from cases involving Trump’s Treasury Department while his own son was secretly working there as a political appointee and attorney.
His son's employment was hidden so thoroughly that his name appears nowhere on the Treasury Department website, he has no public resume, and his bar listings are outdated.
If Alito had recused himself, the secret would have come out. He didn’t recuse himself.
This is a clear conflict of interest, and the American people deserved to know about it.
The federal recusal standard is clear: a justice must step aside in any case where there is a reasonable basis to question whether he or she can be impartial. A justice ruling on cases involving the department where his son works fails that test. The Treasury Department sits at the center of some of the biggest legal fights of this administration, and challenges to Trump’s $1.776 billion January 6 slush fund could be headed to the Court next.
The Supreme Court is the only court in America with no binding code of conduct. That is completely unacceptable, and it has to change NOW.
Congress controls the Power of the Purse, and therefore the Court’s funding. If the Court will not adopt a binding code of conduct with real recusal review on their own, I support withholding their funding until they do.
