Each person with measles spreads it to up to 18 other people. For comparison, the R0 (measure of spread) for Covid is 1-2. One of 10 kids who gets measles has an ear infection that may result in permanent hearing loss. Up to 30 per 10,000 die of complications.

Chris and I are making 1-2 phone calls a day. This morning I called my Congresscritter to ask him to defend the Department of Education against HR 899 and the efforts of the executive branch. I cited my fear that I will not be able to make ends meet if my income-based repayment plan goes away.

One year ago memory, imported from Facebook.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

Just went live to talk about what is happening, what we can do, and what to expect this week: www.instagram.com/reel/DForuR_...

hi, have you spent today doomscrolling? Are you slouching right now? Have you eaten something high-protein today? There's a lot to be worried about right now, but you still deserve moments of joy and time to rest. Try to focus on things in your control. And charge your phone away from your bedroom.

This is also why I am so optimistic despite all of the extremely terrible shit that is going on. There’s so much up for grabs right now and the rebuilding is a choice we are making in this moment. I think we can win it. We just have to try.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Always watching me.

The administration took down the reproductive rights website that women need access to. So The Skimm bought a url and brought the content back. Pass this on! Go to reproductiverightsdotgov.com

I have been looking for a group that is using methods today similar to those described in SOF's letter in this post. I think it's much more effective). Does anyone know of such a group active today? Details in the thread.

Chris really, really does not like wearing socks.
