More funding. Smarter solutions. More individualized care. More education. A holistic approach. Affordable options. Mental health is something near and dear to my heart and our society fails to address it in real, fundamental ways. We have to be there for each other in the gap.

This is why there needs to be more funding for mental health, it should be first priority for healthcare

“The Woman King wasn’t snubbed. A snub is if it missed out on a category or two. The film was not nominated for one single craft. Not one single extraordinary performance was recognized. And when has that happened for a successful film…” Thanks for speaking the truth, Gina!

So, as I understand the Supreme Court, the government can arrest and jail you without Miranda rights, execute you even if your lawyer screws up, force you to have a baby, and use tax dollars to support religion. But it can't protect your right to vote or keep you safe from guns.

Los Angeles, I am literally BEGGING you to turn in your ballots. The return rate is so low for anyone under 34, and if Caruso wins, we are screwed. Rents will skyrocket even more, the unhoused will be treated like criminals, climate change legislation will be void. It’s BAD.

Rick Caruso doesn’t care about LA. Don’t be fooled by foolish celebrities who endorse him bc they know nothing about policy or current community hardships. Caruso’s no more than a Trumper. You want change & heart… vote for Karen Bass.

Idaho's house just passed HB 675. It passed by a vote of 55-13. It would make providing gender affirming care to trans teens a felony with a life sentence.. Worse... it makes leaving the state with your trans teen to move elsewhere and provide them with care a felony as well.

This is where we are. We shot past dangerous and horrific a long time ago. The rubber has hit the road so who is standing shoulder to shoulder in this fight? Who truly gives a sh*t and whose on that performative bs? Let's see.

Reminder that the United States of America is so young that President John Tyler, notorious slaveowner and champion of slavery — he served as President 1841-1845 — had a father who was Thomas Jefferson’s college roommate and now a living grandson, who is a 93-year-old Virginian:
