How cool!

It breaks my heart to say, Christi was found deceased. We worked together to find her, let's work together to lay her to rest. She made the biggest impact on my life. I still needed her gofund.me/aeb74666

While you were sleeping: The Trump administration has terminated more than $900 million in Education Department contracts, taking away a key source of data on the quality and performance of the nation’s schools.

My latest publication is out! Elder Black women science teachers wrote poems to their younger Black girl self. The paper shares the lessons we can learn about cultivating the curiosity of Black in science classrooms today. Wanna read?: drive.google.com/file/d/1f971...

“An ongoing tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas has become the largest in recorded history in the United States”

Very useful

I’m hearing from constituents whose jobs are at risk because they do agency outreach to minority communities. Consider what this means for public health, national security, agriculture and justice. The war on DEI has become a war on public service and government for all.

Somehow, the only things that seem to change are for the worst lately.

The bump was bumping yesterday, 13 weeks today #13weeks #baby

I feel like that just social media as a whole 💀

I've had my cat sansa since she was able to leave her mom. We were only going to take her sister at first, but they were cuddling, and Sansa seemed so scared and timid we couldn't leave her. To this day, she's still so timid and seems to absolutely hate being perceived unless it's on her terms.

70% of the world’s population has universal healthcare, but not the US We are the only highly developed nation without it Our healthcare is twice as expensive as the average wealthy nation US ranks last among industrial nations for deaths that could be prevented with timely access to healthcare

I'm currently 10 weeks and 2 days pregnant, and I'm sick in bed today. I just can't find relief today😭 sorry I've been M.I.A. on here. I was trying to make the best of the time before trump becomes president again. I am really enjoying my time with loved ones before things get too crazy.

At least 27 people, including children, have died and 83 others rescued after two boats capsized off Tunisia, says the country’s National Guard ⤵️

About a week or two ago, I learned you can turn on REQUIRE ALT TEXT in your accessibility settings. So if you're like me and still don't habitually think about Alt-Text when you're excited to post something brilliant, Bluesky can help remind you.

Companies not hiring enough staff being turned into "workers aren't reliable" is the biggest lie that so many believe. You don't plan on your child getting sick, your dad falling downstairs, your mom's or grandma's suddenly stroke. Not to mention how many I know are working with a chronic illness.

I wrote about UNION, the gripping and much-needed documentary about the Amazon Labor Union, and why it hasn't gotten a distribution deal (spoiler: Bezos has too much money/power). You can stream it on Gathr this weekend and you should! slate.com/culture/2024...

Do you really want to hurt the big companies? Don't partake in black Friday or Cyber monday. It's the easiest thing to do as well. Instead, buy from a small business! Or support a friend's business!

After the years of work to get where we are today with #HIV this is really disappointing

What a shock. I extremely hate how masks got turned into a political statement. It only harms so many more people. It's crazy seeing young people who care about their health, getting judged for it.

I'm sorry, this is just wild. What do you call getting crucified?

That's crazy, I was listening to the same album today

99% of the advice people give for using Bluesky amounts to “don’t willingly have a terrible experience”, and the messed up thing is that peoples experience online has gotten so bad they legitimately need to be reminded of that

I'm just so angry.

At least four Palestinians have been killed in an Israeli attack on two homes in the vicinity of Abu Diya Bakery, west of Gaza City, according to the Palestinian Information Center. 🔴 LIVE updates ⤵️ aje.io/3s86v8

Just a reminder that there’s an app available for your TV called PBS RETRO where you can watch all sorts of wonderful old pbs shows like Mr. Rogers and Reading Rainbow, you know, in case you might need that sort of energy right now

A real telling thing is when someone frames the left's causes and concerns as being "edgy" or "cool" or "larping" or "pure" or whatever. Not only do you not believe in a better world yourself you can't even imagine someone else believing in it. A kind of Hell if you ask me.

The proposed ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hezbollah requires American and French troops to occupy southern Lebanon "to oversee implementation of the truce." So that's, um, bad.

Public library energy is the best energy. Like here is all the knowledge we could find, it's been meticulously organized and vetted and it will cost you nothing today, welcome to the absolute pinnacle of human civic evolution, feel free to pull up any bean bag chair you like

This needs to be said, loud, and often.

this is a truly beautiful and comforting piece. I hope Meredith is right

And people will think it was Trump.

Not just with feminism, i refuse to be complicit with dehumanizing any person or people now that my eyes are open and aware.

My strongest opinion on exercise is that you should find an active thing that you enjoy doing rather than searching for an optimal workout, because you're infinitely more likely to keep doing an activity you enjoy than one you don't

I'm really loving bluesky. I've found more inspiring and well-educated people to follow and learn from in the few days I've joined than the years I've spent on fb ,Instagram, or Twitter. I feel like I finally found my space🖤

People often apologize when they mention audiobooks to me, I guess because I’m a writer and they assume I think it’s some kind of betrayal. Look. People were googling “what’s a tariff?” the day AFTER the election. I’m grateful y’all are reading, however you’re reading. Also, I love audiobooks.
