Thank you, Courtney for this💡moment for me. The unaware privilege (for me as a cis woman) that I enjoy. There are structural sexist barriers, but not because a medical provider or my health insurer is denying or gatekeeping my gender.
What Went Wrong with a Highly Publicized COVID Mask Analysis?
The Cochrane Library, a trusted source of health information, misled the public by prioritizing rigor over reality

’s account was locked for a post similar to this one in which he shared the public phone number & address to a Rite Aid pharmacy. It was flagged for posting “private info” but it’s a public business. He submitted an appeal. See the screenshot below.👇
“But America has a bifurcated bankruptcy system. For normal people, bankruptcy is more punishment than relief. For the ultra-wealthy, bankruptcy is a system of total impunity for ghastly crimes.”

“Many public figures in the medical field during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic have seemingly convinced themselves that they are in fact actually creative directors at an advertising agency contracted by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.”

So sorry you are being systematically targeted. You are a relentless teller of truths. I am in awe of your fierce heart and your advocacy; for yourself, your family, and all of humanity.
I wish there was a way to help block the attackers.

1974 – 1975
The Equal Credit Opportunity Act was passed in 1974. Before this law came into place, women needed a man to cosign credit applications for them.
“Declaring this Court “closer to a 9-to-0 court than it is to a 6-to-3 court” is roughly analogous to concluding that coconuts are more like people than plants, because both coconuts and people have hair and produce milk.”
Another very informative space, expertly facilitated by Pete. He interviewed a brilliant, retired GP (

I am so grateful for your evidence-based, principled, well-communicated expertise, and for your love of humanity & our planet’s web of life. Unlike the “vax & relax” official “stancers,”you’ve been steadfast in promoting layered risk mitigation. Thank you. ❤️
Why does
@GoodRx
wrongly state on their website that the CDC recommends the mRNA fall booster over the
@Novovax
booster??? The CDC link GRX relies on doesn’t lead to content saying this? “Bivalent” reference? Wot???⬇️
@joeyfox85
Thx 4 this & all of ur detailed, well-explained info re mitigating airborne viral loads/improving indoor air quality. I’m using ur info @ work & taking measures at home. You & all of the indoor air experts are so generous and relentless. True public servants.

She knows how to cross-examine a hostile witness. Barrett has never tried a case. Has existed entirely in a sheltered white enclave. She knows she’s being exposed. Beautiful to watch Kamala work.
@thane_black
I’m so sorry. IMO good medicine requires humility & saying “I don’t know,” when they don’t know. Refer, &/or keep trying, reaching out, learning. Helping. Not making the lazy, biased, cruel choice to gaslight, delay treatment, stigmatize. 🙏❤️
@lucyveepee
So sorry, Lucy. Anti-Semitism breeds ignorance & cruelty. Some gentiles act out & some are silent. As a gentile in a Jewish family I will stand shoulder to shoulder with you against this bigotry. ❤️🙋♀️😷🙏✡️
@emrazz
Thanks for your precision & persistence. Your work is so important. You call out the structures, culture & dumb/cruelty of sexism on a daily basis. It must be exhausting. You’re my daily inspiration calendar in this fight. The opposite of gaslit numbness. Profound gratitude. 🙏❤️

Thx so much 4 organizing & facilitating this gathering. You led us so expertly & kindly. I appreciated listening to each beautiful human. Hearts & minds. It was affirming, energizing & healing. Cut thru my feelings of isolation & despair. TY 🙏❤️

Left the room briefly, as folks we were meeting with were running late. My coworker took this pic of Winston, who I had not realized was also ready to participate on the call, from my couch.
WHO’s early 2020 denial of airborne transmission in the face of knowing the truth. How many millions of infections, chronic conditions and deaths were preventable?

on the cruise ship outbreak :
“Let’s be careful not to overreact..Remember, in SARS..this disease isn’t airborne..[😳]there was a great scare that this was airborne..It didn't turn out to be so..
a cruise ship is a very particular environment.”

Thank you for sharing your LC experience so eloquently - sending love to you. Your life is precious and I’m sorry for people aiming their negativity & ableism at you. Glad you are finding support. You are not alone. 🌺❤️

Rosalio is moving the irrigation pipes in the broccoli fields of Gonzalez CA. These pipes can weight 40-50 pounds and are moved around the rows 2-3 time a day. His arms ache after doing this all day, but someone has to ensure the plants are watered.

“No one piece of legislation will address every conceivable problem with the Supreme Court. But the multitude of pending bills is a reminder that problems with the Supreme Court abound.”

speak the truth again.
Proposals for Supreme Court term limits are good, as long as they also do something about the current problem with the Court, which is that it is controlled by a supermajority of FedSoc freaks

What's stopping schools getting filtration in the UK (and probably elsewhere too)?
Political will/cost
Obstruction
Assumptions of low risk due to modelling
Objections (everybody seems to have at least one)
General lack of knowledge
