2/2 This requirement will introduce additional obstacles for students to balance academic success with their basic needs. Students should have the tools that they need to obtain a degree that will help the economy flourish while reducing the need for Medicaid coverage. buff.ly/ucxXvf0
1/2 NEW BRIEF | For the first time in Medicaid’s history, the program will mandate participation in work, education, or community service in exchange for receiving health benefits.
ICYMI: Dreamer is back in Justice League Unlimited #24-25, with @nicoleamaines.bsky.social co-writing! Pre-orders for #24 are open, so get yours in now!
Student debt is more than a monthly payment. My new public research site brings together 1,810 survey records and 67 interviews on financial security, well-being, college value, and repayment. more-than-a-monthly-payment.daniel-anthony-colli.chatgpt.site #StudentDebt

The response is an action that reveals beliefs his statements alone do not. His revealed belief is clearly that his reputation and comfort are both more important than taking material action supporting his stated stance on trans people, to the point he will harm one of us to protect them.
Ngl, between the Elves in The Hobbit being mainly Simic 🤢 & MB having none, I'm feeling a little bummed. I'm expecting 1-2 Reality Fracture cards of interest at most & then it'll depend on the UB sets whether or not next year is a total skip too
Anyone who thinks an Amy Acton victory won’t convince Democrats to adopt anti-trans stances should read any related thread on /r/Ohio. The number of liberals and Democrats that have now fully adopted trans sports bans being good in Ohio is unreal.
1. In the aftermath of forcing the Ohio Progressive Caucus to delete criticism of Amy Acton for calling trans girls "boys," progressives were promised a meeting with Acton. Now, we have learned she didn't show up, and kicked trans people out of the meeting. Subscribe to support our journalism.
being "apolitical" or "neutral" on trans people means you're fine if the worst happens to us
Hey @devdoodle.bsky.social @travism.bsky.social did you get the temps under control for when I land in Ohio this afternoon?
I've got most of Dreamer's appearances in single issue and collected edition format. Also bought Steph's Batgirl run in the original and updated collections.
Name physical media you purchased more than once.
Well, we know what this means now!
Nicole dropped a little teaser for what's in the works on the DC Twitch stream: "family tree" @sapphicnal.swifties.social @faemorrigan.bsky.social Could go a million different ways, but I'm keeping my 🤞 for White Witch Maeve. (Or maybe a link to her "Nakamura" post from a little while ago)
@annecomics.bsky.social On a scale of 1-10, where you at about the Absolute Black Canary one-shot news?
Transphobes are uniformly trash and we don't need to pretend otherwise. It isn't complicated.
Hey remember y'all that I have a fundraiser for @translifeline.org with Ink Mats selling this playmat
hey all! I have started a fundraiser for @translifeline.org in partnership with Ink Mats who will be donating 100% of the proceeds!! inkmats.com/collections/... #transrightsarehumanrights #BetterDaysMTG
I HAVE AN UPDATE! From the stretch goal post! cc: @nicoleamaines.bsky.social @sapphicnal.swifties.social @faemorrigan.bsky.social @nicolemainessource.bsky.social @dailycasscain.bsky.social
A little further out on the horizon, @d20culturebr.bsky.social is launching their Justice League Unlimited RPG project on July 21st. Will there be Dreamer? Well, I asked them & you can see their response in the pic.
i was a trans athlete it was never a problem i wanted to do an extended "because" but there's no need to do a because because what the fuck are we doing here besides capitulating to fascists who found an easy target i'm a man in a dress to them. and like dawg who cares let men wear dresses
My personalized copies of JL: Dream Girls arrived today! They join their Dream Team counterparts from a couple years ago. My tremendous thanks to @nicoleamaines.bsky.social & the great folks at @publiccounsel.bsky.social & @charitybuzz.bsky.social for the opportunity to add them to my collection.
Depends on the UB properties, but next year (post-Hobbit forward, really) looks to be a skip from me. I am happy to see they seem to be hitting for lots of other folks though!
Y'all, if you have ever wondered what it would like like for the federal government to tell you what you are/not allowed to read and thought "screw that," now is the time to say so. Sign this letter. Send a postcard. Call your senators. This is a nightmare scenario. Don't let it pass.
NEW: A federal book banning bill has been introduced in the Senate. It's time to make our voices heard. Tell your Senators to REJECT pro-censorship legislation like S. 4925 that would limit the freedom to read! We need every advocate to speak out against censorship: action.ala.org/campaign/S4925
There's probably not enough room with everything else the set will want to do narratively, but I would love if this yielded a new, non-compleated Ezuri.
Early reveal at MagicCon Amsterdam Is this implying what I THINK this is impying?!?! Looks like from the Reality Fracture commander deck.
If nothing else, I hope this means they actually start using Kate Bishop again.
Stephen Wacker will replace C.B. Cebulski as the new Editor-in-Chief of Marvel Comics. The company is also relocating its publishing operations from New York to L.A. after 90 years. (via www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...)
For no real reason I'd like to remind you of this fun book I wrote about a professor, some grad students, and their (maybe) guide who fall into a mysterious land of dinosaurs, Neanderthals, and so much more. There's a gorgeous hardcover, a paperback out this fall, or Ray Porter could read it to you.
This is an unsurprising development given the ever-growing range of variants in recent years, but I *haaaaaate* this. And I say that as someone whose feelings on UB bottom out at 3 on a 5 point Likert scale. Only upside to this coming now is I didn't bankrupt myself chasing a David Tennant one.
cant wait until next year when we get Kirk cards with a piece of his jockstrap on the card like Topps relics
