Melissa Hortman, who was assassinated last night, was the Speaker of the Minnesota House in the 2023-2024 session, when Democrats ran the state government. That means she had a leading role in shepherding the many landmark reforms that Dems adopted in that period—an important legacy. Brief 🧵.

He better hope I don't find out what business he's with or his company will be receiving a scathing letter. COMMON SENSE 101: you do not do door-to-door sales on the same day, in the same state, where two lawmakers were shot and killed for answering their doorbell.

Our access to COVID vaccines is under attack. It’s more important than ever to make our voices heard by making public comment to the FDA by May 23 at 11:59 PM EST. Use our template available on our substack at peoplescdc.substack.com/p/vaccine-ac...

Just a friendly reminder that our current Covid vaccines do not meaningfully prevent infection or transmission of Covid. Misleading the public about this fact led to massive distrust about vaccines and record vaccine hesitancy. It's SO crucial to make ppl aware of this fact to fight vax hesitancy

Call me basic, but I enjoy the J'Adore line, and today my #SOTD is J'adore D'eau. This alcohol-free flanker has milky white juice and smells like a rich lady's shampoo or body lotion. It's green balanced with florals. Entirely inoffensive. I love it. #FragranceSky #PerfumeSky

Catching Covid at the end of the summer brought our biking season to a sad & abrupt end. It was a huge bummer. Today we got back out there, biking under the bright blue sky, among the bluebells, on a perfect spring day. It totally filled my cup. 💙🤍💙🤍

This world is worse than you think when a white woman can call a 5-year-old autistic child a racial slur and then raise over $300k from other bigots and white nationalists for the purpose of "protecting her family" on a Christian version of GoFundMe.

My #SOTD is for the lilac lovers. This stunner smells like sticking your head in a lilac bush on a blue-skied spring day. A true lilac. It is so, so good. #PerfumeSky #FragranceSky #Perfume

New York mask ban update: Our advocacy efforts are working! Gov Hochul is failing at convincing lawmakers to include a proposal that criminalizes masking in the budget, and some legislative officials predict it will be dropped from budget talks as negotiations drag on. Keep calling your electeds!

Oh my, my sample #SOTD made me queasy unfortunately. I wanted to love this. I SHOULD love this, but I don't. It is beautiful. Very solar, warm, & summery. Like eating an ice cream cone on a beach. Reminds me of something I had from BBW in the early aughts, name escapes me. #PerfumeSky #FragranceSky

It has since been scrubbed as best as I could get off my arms. Shirt changed. Covered up with Molecule 01 + Black Tea, an old faithful that's a nice refresher for my nose. 😶

Hey so this sucks!!!! Spread the word.

Panda Express becomes the latest business to ban masks for employees, insisting that being able to see facial expressions is necessary for team building. This is ableist & discriminatory. Employees have to apply to be allowed to mask, putting an undue burden on disabled staff.

Those of us who refused to adopt the back to normal Covid denial narrative are used to witnessing mental gymnastics by folks who need to believe the pandemic is over The US Covid website is peak denial It’s a bioweapon but it’s also mild? It was manufactured in a lab but we can get it over & over?

My #SOTD fits so well on this chilly, gloomy spring day. There is a version of me who would've hated this at one point, but I'm finding it so enjoyable today. All notes listed I've detected at one point. If you enjoy a powdery scent, this slept on PdM is worth a try. Sophistication in a bottle.

They told me parenting would be hard. They didn’t say I’d be managing airborne transmission, collapsed institutions, and mass delusion before my morning coffee. A 🧵 for the last parents standing:

Trying out this newer release from Guerlain for my #SOTD. It's a more mature rose that's fresh & ozonic for summertime. It's giving rose stems and leaves, some mint, and mosses. I like it, but don't love it.

Someone on Reddit said Heretic Nosferatu smells like a tonsil stone and it’s now been totally ruined for me lmfao. 🤢 #perfumesky #fragrancesky #perfume

Trying a new to me brand today. Definitely getting the raspberry, ISO E super, iris, powder, and musk. Leans unisex. Very nice if you're into raspberry notes, which I am. #PerfumeSky #FragranceSky #SOTD

i am literally begging you to take preventative measures. preserve your health. whatever safety net you thought existed is on its last threads.

MORE LILAC for my #SOTD. Took a gamble on a partial bottle of Nosferatu, and I'm glad I did! It's a lovely petrichor lilac scent with a touch of fresh oud. It stays close to the skin and smells very fresh. Perfect for spring! Definitely feels haunted in a good way. #PerfumeSky #FragranceSky

Today's sample #SOTD is DREAMY! Imagine walking into a flower shop and sticking your nose in some freshly watered lilacs. In the air is a hint of something tropical. That is Love at First Sight by Une Nuit Nomade. I'm going to need more of this. #FragranceSky #PerfumeSky

My #SOTD has me baffled. It smells like a tobacco bomb, and that's not even a note that's listed! It's giving cinnamon tobacco sweetness. Very strange. I like it, but was hoping for something cool with the lilac note and didn't really get it. #PerfumeSky #FragranceSky

Today's #SOTD is part of a rabbit hole I've fallen into involving lilac scents. There are just two notes: lilac & petrichor. It's heavy on the fresh, aquatic florals. It's stemmy & green. But something about it leans a bit dill pickle-y on me, which I am not enjoying. #fragrancesky #perfumesky

Late yesterday, Trump issued an executive order that terminates HHS's Long COVID advisory committee. The committee's focus was bringing perspectives from outside government to inform action of the Executive Branch on Long COVID and other infection-associated chronic conditions.
