City Councilmember Cathy Moore just asked a panel of experts if public health ever focuses on getting people "off medication and into full recovery," which I think reflects a sadly common (and stigmatizing) view of what recovery is. People on medication are in recovery.

I know pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t matter anymore, but if there’s one person I wouldn’t want to be the judge of who goes into locker rooms, it would be the man who openly boasted about walking into dressing rooms of underage girls

As much as I hate comparisons to the handmaid's tale, I keep thinking about the opening in the series when women wake up one day and find themselves locked out of their bank accounts.

For a photo op & a bragging media post, Trump minions at the USACoE have thrown away millions of gals of #water farmers were relying on for later this year. This water will not be captured, will not be useful for cities or farms or firefighting. It is now lost.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later

Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner

One of the more absurd things that gets said in the ER a lot is that a chief complaint probably isn’t serious or real when it’s an unhoused patient.

Gonna blow some minds and point out that *people sleeping outdoors with no money are actually going to get sick more often*.

I’ve never been more impressed by local reporters in my life. The work they’ve done over the past 48 hours to keep SoCal safe is incredible.

When Trump insults journalists by declaring them “the enemy” or “fake news” he fails to recognize that they come from our community & report on our community.

A good litmus tear for how informed you are about trans athletes is whether or not you previously knew that no sports governing body has ever produced a study of actual trans bodies to justify banning trans women from sports.
