www.nytimes.com/2025/04/08/u.... Imagine if all these universities had the backbone to defy Trump all at once, in unison? Why sell your soul to “protect” a gutter carcass? He’s going to suck them all dry anyway. Get all the alumni, students, faculty to protest 1/2

'In 2007, my sister, 26 at the time, needed a minor surgery, but her application to leave Gaza was denied for a week; when she was finally able to have the surgery, she was unable to handle it, and she lost her life.' A permit. A permit to access medical treatment. A fucking permit.

i want to be vaccinated & want to get my child vaccinated, but it's not happening for either of us until next week because of supply/appointment availability issues.

I'm a Jew who went to pro Palestinian rally and it was one of the friendliest political spaces I'd ever been and one of the easiest to have serious conversations. Many people feel powerless right now but you can surround Palestinians in your community with support and care

hi Bluesky! @teenvogue.bsky.social I interviewed some of the young people coordinating an 100+ campus walkout in support of a ceasefire in Gaza today, including from the Palestinian Youth Movement and the anti-war group Dissenters. please read and share, was no small feat

I like how we are still framing this as "struggling to combat misinformation" or clumsiness, as opposed to what it is: a conscious if sloppy effort by a wealthy right winger to undermine journalism and his ideological enemies the press is so close to getting it

i know this won't work forever, but it is truly magic that i can motivate my toddler to do ✨anything ✨ right now by telling her that lady gaga does that thing.

This statement from Jeremy Corbyn on Gaza and Israel is exactly what is called for. tribunemag.co.uk/2023/10/jere...

Rest in Peace Dianne Feinstein, no matter what anyone says, nobody can take away that you flew a confederate flag over San Francisco city hall and arrested everyone who got mad about it.

Yes I know them, we went to Twitter together.

US COVID SHOTS ARE FREE. Please do not let Walgreens and CVS mislead you or your family members or neighbors about this! They are the biggest part of the federal bridge (free shots for uninsured people) program, but the rollout’s logistics have been a little scattered and you may get pushback.

@kimkelly.bsky.social nice to meet you today! here's the lozenge that saves me every time i do public speaking www.actoralcare.com/en-us/produc...

Thrilled to publish this piece on the history of RICO as a tool of suppression against the left, drawing particularly on its usage against a group of revolutionaries in the 1980s, and what that says about the current charges against #StopCopCity activists. lpeproject.org/blog/rico-an...

my partner does this for me & it makes me feel so seen & loved. ❤️

I have a friend that never asks me how I'm doing but instead always picks things up and carries things or lifts things before I have a chance to reach for them. To ME (we are not all this same) this is the most loving form of empathy and understanding of my pain anyone has ever displayed.

"Johns Hopkins leaders say three key steps powered their demographic change: the elimination of “legacy” preferences ... a massive increase in financial aid for families in need; and more extensive recruiting in places where the university is not well known." www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

today is my child's second birthday. she is a marvel and my greatest joy, not least of all because she woke up and asked to go to the library on her birthday! 🥰😭

I’ve been trying to make this point for two years but every surge like this cumulatively erodes the healthcare system. Every time, more healthcare workers hit the limit where they’ve just had *enough*

For SELF, I highlighted the trans kids who don’t make the news, whose stories might go otherwise unheard: the ones who are already out there playing on teams with their friends, winning and losing without incident. https://www.self.com/story/trans-kids-playing-sports

Union busting is fucking disgusting

"We occasionally end up with products that can be dangerous to you, or to society in general, which we believe to be the case with Amazon-owned Ring and its relationship with law enforcement." https://www.wired.com/story/why-we-do-not-recommend-ring/

Pro tip: all major social media companies do this. Twitter, ironically, was one of the only companies that ever pushed back against law enforcement demands for data/unmasking/etc. Now, well. Here we are.

@naptime.theolive.garden haha deleted, thanks for looking out for me in my naive wandering 😂

Since raw milk legalization is getting some press today, I thought that I’d re-share this open access work that we did concerning outbreaks linked to raw milk and their relationship to changing laws, published in Epidemiology and Infection, last year. Don’t drink it. Def don’t give it to kids. 🧪
