Recently I've watched several documentaries about the 1960s & the Vietnam War -- lots that's relevant today

This one notion stuck with me more than anything else I learned

I'd never heard it or considered this before

Childhood lead exposure can cause serious developmental delays, hearing loss, and behavioral problems.

The CDC has long had the technology and the people power to efficiently and effectively mitigate lead exposure.

RFK Jr. cut the program.

What's more un-American than that?

#StandUpForScience
RFK Jr. is an unprecedented threat to US health.

He just completely eliminated the CDC lead poisoning group and all teams that respond to help address local radiological and nuclear threats and all capacity for natural disasters response.

Mind numbing insanity.

I cannot overstate the importance of reading books, particularly novels by respected authors, for critical thinking skills and reading comprehension. If the big gun novelists don't interest you, start small and work your way up. Or read whatever interests you. Just read. Or listen. It's all books.

Let’s be clear: Trump’s plan to fine migrants $998 a DAY and steal their property is NOT about border security. It’s about pushing fear-based rhetoric—and it’s giving fascism.

There’s been zero explanation for this given but it seems exceedingly likely it’s pure retaliation for the Maine governor challenging Trump. Really sick.

Toxic positivity is pressuring people to look on the bright side. They have to suppress anxiety, anger, sadness, and grief.

Healthy support is shielding people from the dark side. You invite them to express their pain, and show them they're not alone and won't feel it forever.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.

The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.

History is repeating. Pay attention.

I'm so pleased to see so many Filipinos out there showing how family relationships work in our culture. My mom was never warm or affectionate but boy did she make me soup and give me sponge baths when I was sick. You knew there was nothing to worry about in those moments.
I'm missing her right now.

Trying to get protein in while sick by eating this quinoa salad but they really skimped on the vinaigrette so essentially it’s a dry quinoa salad…isn’t it enough that I’m going through perimenopause and have COVID?
