Today required more walking than usual for various reasons but pretty much all of it was speed walking because I have zero chill.

I think it will basically be Amelia Bedelia. Asking the AI to do something and it misinterprets it.

You may have heard that the (Federal) House of Reps introduced a national book banning bill recently, specifically targeting books w/ trans people. Some states are passing laws to protect the freedom to read--let's make Massachusetts one of them. Ask your rep to bring H.3594 to the floor.πŸ‘‡

Added benefit of this air filter is that if I put the fan speed on high, it helps me cool off (office feels extra warm since it’s 70Β°F outside).

This is so heartbreaking, and also I am going to make my PSA again.

Babies can be vaccinated against measles as young as six months, it’s just not standard. It’s usually only recommended for international travel in the US. But guess what? We’re the plague pit now.

Kids have class pictures today so I trimmed my daughter’s bangs, cut my son’s hair, and then felt like I should do something with my hair.
So, grabbed some leftover brown coloring conditioner I had from Overtone and colored my hair, then gave myself a trim.
Turns out I like looking put together.

Above to well above average, Spring-like conditions will continue across much of the country to start the week. Numerous daily record-tying/breaking highs will be possible.

Here in Illinois, we honor the powerful women who paved the way for our state.

Unlike Trump, we see their strength β€” and we're proud of it.

On International Women’s Day and every day, we recognize that all of us have a better future when everyone reaches their full potential.

I guarantee* that it will NOT rain during the Stand Up for Science rally on Saturday at 1PM, at Buffalo’s Niagara Square! If it does rain, we will still be out there so you better show up! You won’t melt!

Don’t let mega-constellation-building billionaires steal your night sky Satellites are wonders of modern technology that have improved all of our lives. But having more than a million of them in orbit could destroy our view of the heavens and seriously damage our planet

Elon Musk has already started plans to launch a million satellites.

Yes. A MILLION.

This is a colossally bad idea, and it's not too late to make your voice heard. I explain everything:
