I see politics working overtime. The Trumpists claiming Dems created hurricanes. The Dems complaining about DeSantis. The mutual aid folks swearing that the govt never doesn’t anything. Please put it all aside. Call for transit for people you know. Share the emergency numbers.

As long as he consented to going/requested to go, I don’t see the issue. He’s having the time of his life. Treating people like their life has ended simply because they’re old is really problematic. Fun isn’t reserved for just the young. We must remember that.

Our earliest, most distant look yet at a black hole merger 👀 Webb detected evidence of a collision between two galaxies and their massive black holes, so far away that we're seeing it as it was when the universe was 740 million years old. More via @ESA: esa.int/Science_Exploration/…

As an internal processor and someone who chooses their words carefully. I cannot endorse this enough.
The person who talks the most is the most likely to become the leader. Regardless of intelligence and expertise, groups elevate those who command the most airtime. It's time to stop rewarding people for dominating the discussion, and start valuing quality over quantity.

I've seen a lot of ableism in leftist spaces. They constantly make ableist takes then are like we didn't mean disabled people. You guys aren't included. And it's just like that's the PROBLEM. We aren't included. We aren't seen as human beings.

This is one of the most important lessons of the past year of therapy for me & @AbbyWambach: When you do the work to embrace your full human experience–it liberates your partner & other people in your life to do the same. Listen to today's episode at bit.ly/49B8llH

@HemingwayMuse is an amazing artist, but it’s the alt text on her posts which transformed me into a regular buyer of her work!

I would definitely have to increase my budget to purchase art, if more independent artists provided vivid detailed descriptions like these!!!

Also if you haven’t seen her photography or acrylic work you should do so now! Then purchase something.

Forced psych hospitalization has notoriously poor patient outcomes. However, these 5150 holds *do* allow politicians & cops to "clean up" cities & remove unhoused people without actually having to provide shelter, housing, or other essential resources. #CripTheVote @GavinNewsom – at Bronx, NY

To be clear, a severe mental illness is no less severe than a severe physical illness. It may not be visible but that doesn’t make it any less severe. Both require high quality care & compassion. – at Lambeth, London
