I am honestly sick of being told — at a university FFS — that we need to ‘embrace’ this profoundly unethical and irresponsible technology.

What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity.

And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

As a historian, I can certify that we are in the bad times. But bad times eventually end.
In the meantime:
• Figure out a small way to help someone
• Figure out a small way to fight back
• Figure out a small place to find joy
• Figure out a small way to grow and thrive

And do it often.

“The military would never turn on its own people”

I’m from Philadelphia, a city where the police firebombed citizens.

They sent troops to Kent State in 1970. They sent troops to NYU last year.

I really need y’all to sit & examine what makes you think you were ever exempt from state violence.

Leucovorin is a drug critical to safe administration of life-saving cancer treatment (colon cancer, lymphoma, leukemia, toname a few). We've experienced very severe shortages in the past.

Please, just no.

I don't know, can an AI doula massage your back during transition? Hold your hand? Hold your cup when you take a drink? Hold your hand to balance in yoga poses? Walk down the street to pick up dinner for you after delivery? Physically position your baby for breastfeeding?

I thought not.
