The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley.
Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo.
Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles.
Get them out!

Proposal:
Instead of saving the exciting clinical trial results for the last day of conferences to try and get people to stay for the whole meeting, they should present them at the beginning of the conference so we can talk about them while we’re together!!

Sigh. Kid 1’s motion sickness started much younger than mine did, and so I have feared that he would start having migraines at a similarly younger age. Very unhappy to say I was right.

Your regularly scheduled reminder anti-myelin-associated glycoprotein neuropathy and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody associated disease are two very different things and you should not order MAG antibodies when you're worried about MOGAD/demyelinating disease.
Thank you.

Don't be a fan of politicians. Don't. Do. Not.
Be ready to turn on them if they even think of stepping out of line. You know how corporations aren't our friend? Well, voters aren't THEIR friends.
We are angry, feral, and tired.
Oh you "wrote" a book that's cute where's my fucking health care

ICE & CBP have killed several people over the last year and the only names to enter the popular consciousness are the names of the white Americans they have killed. We need to attend to what structures that, both externally & internally.
And the same outraged cops? Defended the killers amongst them

People are right to be incensed, but there are more names to uplift. ICE killed an immigrant man named Silverio Villegas González in Chicagoland. He had children. Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped in Minneapolis and died in ICE custody on January 14. Their names deserve to be repeated, too.

What I want to hear from Dems: condemnations of what's happening, vows to punish the perpetrators, clear steps for what they'll do to end this if they regain the majority in the House and/or Senate.

As we work to combat the Right-wing smear campaigns against Renee Good and Alex Pretti, I hope we'll also think of the countless others--disproportionately people marginalized by racism--who have been vilified to justify state violence and abuse, and who haven't had legions come to their defense.

The most important public health story right now in America is that the Trump administration is executing people in the streets, it is kidnapping people of all ages, including 2-year-olds, it is torturing them, & it is putting them in concentration camps where many have been killed or “disappeared”

It’s funny how the supposed “right to bear arms” suddenly has lots of caveats and restrictions. Maybe the only right it was really about was the right for people with a racist right wing ideology to intimidate others.

You don’t have to want kids or even enjoy being around them. But it’s also worth unpacking why kids simply existing, learning, or having unmet needs reads as “annoying,” “unlikeable,” or “bad behavior.”
This collective discomfort with noise, need, & vulnerability is why many ADULTS are struggling.
