please listen to emily. politico's apparent game is to elevate right wing Ds in bad faith in an effort to split up the left. seems to happen again and again. take a look at who's pushing the latest narrative and don't take the bait.
on the one hand, i *want* to believe eventually people will smarten up to politico’s game. but on the other, i’m trans and i’ve watched everyone left of george w bush engage in good faith with the NYT op-eds for 20 years, so.

As I spoke about on World Malaria day - we can expect more malaria now, including in regions/countries that have previously eliminated the parasite responsible. These numbers are small, but are signs of an iceberg underneath. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06...

When you become chronically ill, you have to grieve your health AND your loss of faith in medical system.
You have to grieve the comfort you had when you believed that going to the hospital would make you “better”.
You have to learn to accept that more often than not, there’s no help

This is especially true in healthcare settings.
Almost half the times I’ve needed to access emergency care, I’ve been unable to mask due to airway issues and/or vomiting.
If everyone else is masked up, my odds of avoiding infection are considerably better.

A Plea to Maskless Healthcare Workers from Vulnerable Patients
If you see a mask - wear a mask. Better yet - wear a mask all the time and show us you understand that we're still IN a pandemic. We are depending on you to keep us safe - please don't betray that.

Gentleman, please call the police every time you experience nocturnal emission. The life you save could be your own!
Imagine going through a miscarriage and having to notify the police?
Imagine having to be concerned about how distraught you seem, whether you said anything that could indicate you don’t want a baby, or whether you had ever looked up info on abortion?
It’s not about life, it’s about control.

A West Virginia prosecutor says if miscarriage patients want to avoid criminal charges, they should “call 911”
“Call your doctor. Call law enforcement, or 911, and just say, ‘I miscarried. I want you to know.’”

I found the New York Times Magazine piece on MAiD (medical assistance in dying) deeply triggering.
Why? Because as a disabled Canadian I’ve had it “suggested” to me when I was at one of my lowest points
I support dignity in death, but it must never be a substitute for care 🧵
