Greetings, everyone! I’m on the ground at an anti-ICE demonstration at Plaza Olvera in Los Angeles. I’d say there’s 100+ here, and they plan to march.
I won’t be live tweeting, but I’ll update here occasionally.

I maxed out my credit card, emptied my savings account, and took out a loan to move from Alabama to Bethesda, MD. I don’t even qualify for unemployment since I’ve only worked at NIH for a month. I will be financially and medically devastated.
Seeking suggestions for anywhere that’s hiring!!

Today, along with 2,000 other NIH employees, I had to clear out my office 😭
It was truly the honor of my life to work with such incredibly passionate people focused on improving human health. I’ve never experienced a more positive culture where *everyone* cared about their job and serving others.

I really miss having a reliable platform for breaking news - verified agencies that could post information in real time…with real people sharing and replying and adding their own vantage point. That requires accounts for weather, traffic, fire, police, elected official, etc all in one place :)

CDC scrubs research databases referencing sexual orientation and gender identity
Health researchers began sharing warnings on social media several days ago, urging members of the community to make copies of federal data before the information was removed from the CDC website.
