I’ve reached point of life where I celebrate bridal & baby showers for friends’ kids…Tonight I saw daughter of friends who’d presented @ an important conference & was accepted to fellowship.
I brought her a gift.
Normalize celebrating women (w/gifts!) who aren’t getting married or having babies. 💕

IN DEFENSE OF EMPATHY

1/ 🧵 There are ideologies today actively trying to undermine human empathy. Let’s be clear: attacking empathy has no ground to stand on! Empathy is a strength, not a weakness, and here’s why.

I tweeted about this guy last night and got all these replies from random people who said he'd saved their baby's life. Fuck being rich I would love to have been this guy, imagine how cool it would be to know you'd helped so many people. We need to name an airport after him or something

In 3 days, the number of measles cases in a highly unvaccinated area of Texas has doubled. There are now 48 cases, all of whom are unvaccinated, and 13 of whom have been hospitalized so far, for a hospitalization rate of 27%. This is huge figure in epidemiology. This outbreak will keep spreading.

Every single article about Trump being “elected” Chair of the Kennedy Center must mention in the headline that Trump *fired all the Board members that wouldn’t vote for him.*

“Made Chair” is such weak, passive language that fails to call out what’s really going on.

Our media must do better.

Senator Bill Cassidy managed to break his Constitutional oath and his Hippocratic oath at the same time.

Senator Bill Cassidy, a former doctor, voting to approve a dangerous anti-science quack like RFK Jr, is malpractice and violation of the hippocratic oath.

Go to the CDC website now enter any of these words:
- lgbtq
- transgender
- diversity
- equity
Most of the links w important resources which we use daily to guide care and prioritize interventions for vulnerable populations are currently broken or removed. This erasure will harm. Do not look away.

I am very much in favor of merit-based hiring and high standards for jobs with life and death implications. Which is why I oppose confirming Pete Hegseth, RFK JR, Tulsi Gabbard, and Kash Patel.

I went to post about the National Japanese American Memorial in D.C., which is beautiful but usually missed by tourists. It is a deeply staggering admission of guilt and a warning to future Americans. I went to link to the inscriptions and-

After claiming he doesn't know who Laura Loomer is and merely took a photo with her at a book event, Kash Patel is asked if he's familiar with Stew Peters, an antisemitic podcast host.

Patel: "Not off the top of my head."

Durbin: "You made eight separate appearances on his podcast..."

LFG Senator Bernie Sanders!!

Bernie burns RFK Jr’s blatant flip flopping on his so-called pro-vax stance when RFK Jr is SELLING onesies on his website that read:

This is grossly irresponsible reporting by the AP. What’s being offered is not a buyout. The deal is if you agree to resign in September you can continue working remotely until then. There is no buyout or severance.
