Happy 71st Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools. She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama. The past isn’t past.

What do you do when CDC no longer gives vaccine advice based on science? YOU BYPASS THEM! West Coast Health Alliance (CA, OR, WA, HI) recs based on facts buff.ly/I4oWZfX New Mexico COVID vax for all buff.ly/84mZXoN Massachusetts insurance must cover COVID vax buff.ly/zAfAZsd #medsky #pedsky 🛟😷🧪

ACFC, what are you DOING? What a let down. Fire the whole front office and start over, honestly.

Here’s MY problem with Serena doing a GLP-1 (for weight loss) advertisement. She absolutely has every right to do what she wants with her body, but in discussing its use, she talks about now being at a “healthy weight,” which is super vague and not actually a real thing. 1/4

WE’RE GOING TO THE FINAL! ALL HEART FROM THESE VERMONTERS THANK YOU TO THE BEST FANS IN THE COUNTRY. ONE MORE TO GO!

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

We should keep our foot on Gavin’s neck about all his bad governing but I will also enjoy him talking to republicans the way all democrat politicians should

eating disorder research was already so severely underfunded - 7 terminated grants is devastating to our field!

STRIPED’s Ariel Beccia speaks out in Theresa Gaffney’s new STAT piece on how eating disorder research is being gutted under the Trump admin. $2.7M in NIH grants already cut. Read more: www.statnews.com/2025/06/03/e... @hsph.harvard.edu @albeccia.bsky.social @statnews.com

PLEASE don’t buy into Amazon’s booksale this week. They are intentionally trying to eat into profits from Indie Bookstore Day this weekend, a really important annual event for our important community institutions. Check out your local fave or bookshop.org.

Looking for a framework for how students can meet knowledge and competency requirements embedded in courses in nationally accredited nutrition and dietetics programs from a weight-inclusive perspective?! We've got you! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Looking for someone who might speak from a legal perspective to the implications of recent EOs and anticipated actions from the current administration on weight-inclusive research and education. If you know of someone, pls message me!

I don't think we talk enough about how difficult it is when your career consists of constantly battling against diet culture and trying to make people understand that what they've been told their whole life is wrong/stigmatizing/harmful. Esp when you're in a larger body. Shit is exhausting.

healthism – the positioning of health as both a moral imperative and an individual responsibility – actually harms both mental and physical health and worsens health inequities #episky

Has anyone scraped comments from an instagram or tiktok post for research? If so, how? 😅

STRIPED Director Bryn Austin joined NPR’s KQED Forum to discuss dietary supplement regulation under Trump’s FDA. Catch her expert insights on public health and industry influence. Listen now! @cspi.bsky.social @harvardchanschool.bsky.social urldefense.com/v3/__https:/...

New: Trump officials have paused all external communications at health agencies like CDC, FDA, NIH. No health alerts and the famed MMWRs; no updates to key websites or social media posts. And no indication how long the pause will last. With @rachelroubein.bsky.social + Lena Sun.

It’s been inspiring to see everyone come together for LA,,, but there’s one community I need to highlight. Not enough is being done for the black families after the LA fires. Ive partnered up with GoFundMe and the BMAC to create ONE main GoFundMe campaign to immediately help those in need. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Extremely difficult to focus on anything else when all of my friends are being evacuated from their homes, the places I love are burning down, and we are preparing for our evacuated friends to stay with us indefinitely. The devastation from the SoCal wildfires is being felt across the state.

Hope those in LA are staying as safe as possible!

Interesting to see new FDA standards for foods to be labeled as “healthy.” I appreciate new guidelines informed by nutrition science since the term “healthy” is typically incredibly vague and subjective amongst the general public, contributing to diet culture. www.fda.gov/food/nutriti... (1/4)

This is surely not the same mind, body, and spirit that was able to handle 7 hours of high school, then homework and practice/games/travel to and from away games in one day.

Man, the stigmatization of psychiatric medication really has done young people a world of hurt.

Yes I am EXTREMELY anxious about [gestures widely]. Please do not bring it up casually if you don’t know me like that. I am running on fake vibes in polite settings

🚨After 2+ years of work, our sys review on the relationship between weight stigma & disordered eating has finally been published!!! Thank you to @drhunger.bsky.social & @shrutikinkelram.bsky.social for the buckets of support & encouragement on this labor of love ❤️ tinyurl.com/wsdesr

With all the blood, sweat, and tears that go into applying for an F31 as a grad student, it doesn't even cover my tuition for a full year, meaning I might have to teach anyway. WHAT'S THE POINT?
