Expensive dental care worsens inequality. Is it time for a Medicare-style ‘Denticare’ scheme?
The potentially avoidable costs to the health-care system and to people’s quality of life has led to increased pressure for a Medicare-style universal insurance scheme for dental care (Denticare) or the inclusion of dental care into Medicare.

So…

The DOJ doesn’t just have audio. They also have security cam footage

Of Nauta moving boxes containing classified info from an anteroom in mar-a-Lago. Then fewer boxes were replaced to the anteroom later.

The security cam name?

“South Tunnel Liquor”

Hi everyone!

Now that Threads is out and it's absolutely exploding onto the scene and so many people signing up for it, I invite you to find me on Mastodon because fuck you if you think I'm signing up for another social network run by the same billionaries who brought you Facebook, Twitter, and BlueSky. 🤣

One thing that’s intensely disappointing about Threads is watching people join it who resolutely refused to join Mastodon, as if something needs to be run by a giant megacorp to be considered worthwhile.

Wishing all my disabled siblings a wonderful #DisabilityPrideMonth

Take care of yourselves. You're just as important as anyone else.

You're not a burden. You're doing enough, even if capitalism doesn't agree with this.

You're not asking too much when you need accessibility.

You are allowed to rest and have aids to help you.

You matter in this world and I love you all. 💙

Why the Biden administration is no longer allowed to talk to social media platforms

A Trump-appointed judge just blocked the White House from fighting misinformation, citing free speech concerns.

With not a SINGLE INSTANCE of government threatening interference found, a Trumper Judge has blocked our governments ability to:

Block Election Lies
Block Covid Lies
Block Vaccine Lies

So, the government can't say Trump's "lightbulb up your ass" is wrong!
