My former employer, a HRSA grantee, had to lay off a number of staff last month - including me. We had already received numerous emails instructing us on language that we could no longer use about addiction treatment and recovery. Sorry to see my former employer's website is now "under maintenance."

I said a few words on the @teslatakedown.com call for the big day of action on 3/29.
I'm much more at ease in behind the scenes roles but I must keep speaking up bc I can. This regime is trying to crush dissent--look at the permanent residents detained for their political views. It's dangerous.

"I wanted to talk a little bit about fear. I took about 24 hours after Elon tweeted lies about me. I was scared. So I talked with an attorney. I thought about it. And I decided 'I'm gonna fight back.' He's trying to squash the voice of the people." @valeriecosta.bsky.social #teslatakedown

Over the past few weeks, we've seen sweeping layoffs to nearly every single federal agency. Firing thousands of employees with no notice and no reason is cruel, leaving individuals unable to serve in the places they love, losing their paychecks, and withdrawing their health insurance.

WA’s older forests capture carbon better than nearly any other
These big trees, in their roots, needles and branches, hold more carbon longer than any young plantation. They are world champion climate change fighters.

Bobby, a retired math teacher, who I was floored to realize AFTER a full day of tromping through the woods, is 86. "Old growth forests help us feel our connection to the past, clean the air we breathe, & are a deep source of beauty. We cannot live well without them."
