I’m thankful I have insurance. I also wish I didn’t have to pay $130 a month to keep this body going.

California has a lot of things. But Hutchins’ eggplant pizza and @eddy_sarah are not among them.

The perfect gift from friends tired of hearing me say, "Call Congress about #MOTAA."
Currently in the Judiciary Committee, while imperfect, this bill would allow for increased access to methadone. Call & #LiberateMethadone @MethadoneLib (thanks @CrookedMedia for on-message swag)

I want to thank everyone who has submitted an email I have not read. Without you, I would have accomplished a life long goal of proving that my email is of the devil.

When we talk about street drugs being made to look like candy - let’s be reminded this is what manufactured medication can looks like. To quote @clairezagorski as we enter Spooky Szn- “No one is putting drugs in your candy. That shits expensive.”

Without my sister taking photos of me i would have zero evidence that I do more than read books, write papers, and talk about drugs. Vacations are good.

Vacation life: sister, lake como, stuffed with cheese, and off brand Winnie the Pooh.

Loved that this has been a week of talking about Peer Support! Thinking of @mariabamfoo talking about becoming a peer support on @jonlovett - @DHCS_CA is working to increase the peer workforce. If you have lived experience, be like Maria! Become a peer! #peersupport #bhworkforce

Loved hearing Joaquin Jordan talking about moving from incarceration to working to reform the carceral system at the @DHCS_CA #SUD conference. #harmreduction

Amazing work by @HealthRIGHT360 at the @DHCS_CA #sud conference. #harmreduction is not an intervention but an orientation that can be implemented along every part of the drug is and recover continuum. ESPECIALLY residential treatment.
