Your goal today is to be extra kind
to those folks who are
taking care of sick people.
Of course doctors and nurses and such.
But also
those who are home
with loved ones who are sick.
They do their best
and they worry
and they are so tired.

FEMA will no longer go door-to-door to assist disaster victims

Sarah Stillman investigates a widespread crisis of deaths by starvation in America’s county jails. Most of the victims she identified had been arrested in the midst of a mental-health crisis, often on petty charges tied to their psychiatric distress.
Starved in Jail
