Breaking News: U.S. police killings were undercounted by more than 17,000 over the past 40 years, a new study found, raising questions about the racial bias of medical examiners and their role in obscuring the real extent of police violence. nyti.ms/3A8UNv3
And they wonder why we say #BlackLivesMatter Racism is present and has active power in every corner and integrated into all aspects of life, especially the medical industrial complex.

I know it seems counterintuitive, but conflict is incredibly useful/valuable and generative conflict is one of the quickest and most effective ways to build and deepen trust.
Being stuck at home but unable to gather has given me a new understanding of the state of affairs in Narnia at the beginning of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe: always winter and never Christmas.

Able-bodied people will never understand how challenging it is to work and pass for well while living with chronic illness. It's best y'all hush on this now.
I did a thing
i don’t have a dream job i have a dream community role. i don’t want to work for profit in a world where that’s the priority, i want to work because i love the people around me. that’s my dream, not labor under capitalism
Real transformation starts with reinvesting in our communities. Share our newest graphic to show people what it looks like to #DefundPolice. #BlackLivesMatter
uh why are cops getting free meals when teachers have to buy their own school supplies
My ask to all organizers: if you create images to share, especially info graphics, please provide image descriptions along w graphic to download/share. It helps to remind people about access and allows them to make your content accessible. Disability justice is a practice.
We call for an END to systemic racism that allows this culture of corruption to go unchecked and our lives to be taken. See the demands. Sign the petition. #DefundThePolice #blacklivesmatter bit.ly/3gGe3qU
The crowd is chanting “I don’t see no riot here, why are you in riot gear?”
For anyone worried about talking to their white children right now—worried that their kid is too young for these conversations—I was 5 or 6 when my Dad told me “no matter what you do, some people will always hate you.” Black children don’t get to not understand racism.
It’s like we’re in an episode of Charmed, and there’s all this energy in the air in the fight of good vs evil. Help end racism or your ass is getting vanquished. Period #BlackOutTuesday #Charmed
They’re trying to dismantle the United States Postal Service and privatize it. We must fight with every breath we have to make sure USPS workers are protected and everyone has access to reliable, affordable mail service. Congress must take immediate action to protect the USPS.
Police officers who are witnessed committing murder should be immediately arrested & questioned, as would happen in any case where an average person put their knee on someone’s neck & murdered them in front of people. 1/

I just had to have a big release cry after all of this drama, because I feel so deeply for Megan and let me tell you why. On a human to human level and I’m going to put this video here to set the tone for y’all to understand this (and feel free to use this post to release as…
I also have learned the hard way that “let me know if u need anything” isn’t effective while people are in crisis. So here are my alternatives:
Weird to me that churches who don't pay taxes because they're supposed to be a charitable organization are closed during extreme weather events. They just sit empty until Sunday and Wed when they should be lined with cots and stocked with food for the houseless.
It never should have been sold to them, Sesame Street is essentially a public good, created for children. It shouldn't have been subject to the whims of a streaming service.
Sesame Street has just been cancelled by HBO Max
Stop talking in future tense. We are in the second largest surge of Covid RIGHT NOW. You all don’t get it yet, you won’t even mask in medical settings. Disabled people are delaying medical care and procedures right NOW. Our disability services and medical care is being sold
Hey y'all I made a video breaking down how SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can hide from the immune system and lurk and mutate in different parts of your body. Linking the paper in the thread!
today, in a healthcare office coworker 1: i’m sick coworker 2: me too coworker 3: i’m starting to get sick, i’m gonna test myself later and then go home coworker 1 and 2: we arent testing healthcare workers, knowing that they may have COVID, not testing partially because they do…
my manager showed up maskless sick at work, took a rapid test, it was positive, and got sent home.
Mental Health Check ❤️🩹 Last night I had a mental health crisis. It’s important to acknowledge this because I’ll be okay. I am bigger than my anxiety. Your kindness is why I believe this. Together we’ll persevere, friends. It’s okay to not be okay… because we will be okay 💚
So the virus that causes COVID has the ability to hide from your immune system and mutate in different parts of your body. Places like your nervous system, gut, and more. So you'll have a negative PCR test and everything but your body is actually still being EFFED UP, BAD 😭😭
people do not truly believe they deserve better or can have better. to truly digest the idea that you deserve better in this world & that you were born deserving would mean facing a lot of rage. rage that has the potential to topple this world. and ppl are scared of anger
“Groceries aren’t expensive just shop at Aldis” “masking won’t be reinstated covid is gone “AI is here to stay” “9-5s require your whole life get used to it” GOD DAMN yall just do not believe in us deserving a better fucking world do you
I had a friend who was homeless because his lack of a permanent address meant he couldn’t get paid. He couldn’t get a permanent address because he needed to renew his ID. He couldn’t renew his ID because he didn’t have a permanent address.
People really can’t seem to grasp the simple concept that a majority of people are homeless not because of unemployment but because housing is unaffordable and often requires meeting absurd conditions like good credit scores and making 3x the cost of rent.
"We proof buildings for earthquakes that happen once every 50 or 100 years. We invest millions. Why can't we do the same thing to make sure that our buildings are proofed against natural hazards like airborne pathogens?" @zalaly on the urgent need for clean air #HELPLongCovid
My mom, a diabetic, can't access her Ozempic meds due to a global shortage because people are terrified of being fat & would rather make themselves be permanently disabled to be thin. I hate this fuckin reality.
Community service & social justice are not the same thing. Community service is when you volunteer at a homeless shelter. Social justice is when you demand housing for everyone as a human right.
how tf are you still saying “during the pandemic” when 2 million people will get COVID today? just in the US?
Me making an appt: Can the doctor wear a mask? Her: I don’t think he’ll be willing to do that. Me: I’m requesting ADA accommodations Her: We’ve never had someone ask us that before 🫠
Today my doctor made me put a surgical mask on over my kf94 because they needed me to wear a “real” mask. 🙃
today i said “does this weather make anyone else’s bones ache” and my manager’s manager said “yes, but you’re in your 20s. just wait” and i was like “i have ankylosing spondylitis” and then she didn’t have anything to say
New, highly mutated #COVID variants #Pirola BA.2.86 & JN.1 may cause more severe disease, new studies suggest. “We cannot ignore the evidence” that #Omicron may be evolving into a more severe form of itself, @ShanLuLiu1 told me. #COVIDTwitter #pandemic tinyurl.com/5n77e2ma
