I’ve changed my mind and it turns out I do wish aseptic meningitis and serum sickness on my worst enemies — and actually I’d like to start today, perhaps backdate as well.

My friends are enduring the unimaginable while their family tries to survive in Gaza: they've just lost their precious 4 year old daughter. Can you help take a sliver of their survival efforts off their plate by sharing/contributing to their fundraiser? I'd be so grateful ❤️ gofund.me/bc631576

How tragic that just two business days into the new year, I find myself having to interrupt internalized ableism and negative self talk about my battered bodymind c/o medical admin burnout thanks to criminal and negligent hospital and insurance systems designed to harm. No, not tragic: how violent.

Imagine denying the only generic rescue inhaler a patient is able to use, per doctors’ expertise/based on patient’s diagnoses. Twice. @Cigna: I’m so curious! Why do you want me to take a medication my heart cannot tolerate, or nothing? You know asthma’s deadly? Oh right, that’s the whole point!

Well, here I am.

Hi, I’m a queer Disability Justice activist, author, and award-winning podcast host.

In September, my first children’s book, Adventurous Adeline and the Back to School Party was released.

Would love for you to check it out and purchase a copy for your local library.

clean air activism is v cool!
Why should you care about indoor air?

1. You inhale a greater mass of air than the mass of water you drink.
2. Chemical concentrations in indoor air are typically higher than outdoors.
3. 90% of your breaths inhale indoor air.
4. Unlike water, you don't get to choose your indoor air (in public).

Huge storm and flooding in NYC today. This is 4th Ave and Carroll St in Brooklyn, which is near Gowanus Canal, a superfund site.

Reminder: Do not go in the flood waters, it contains pathogens and is a threat to human health.

The flood footage coming out of New York City is the latest example of aging infrastructure built for a climate that no longer exists. The spoken urgency for infrastructure modernization needs to be matched by action.
