Red states are not ALL red.
Those of us making them purple are dealing with the same garbage policies and shit attitudes.
And no, we don't always have the ability to "just move".

I can’t be the only one who feels like he doesn’t feel shameful about this at all, right? Like. His expression gives me the “I just have to serve six months and then I’m out to do it all over again” vibe and I greatly dislike that.
Not allowing remote work means you won't get the best candidate and I will stand on that.

Being an international/transracial adoptee. But yeah. I don’t really have a definitive point for this. More just to get the thoughts out of my brain (3/3)
Good relationship with my adoptive parents. And over the years they’ve gotten better about being able to hold space for my adoption related anger and grief. And they’ve slowly accepted that they can love life with me in it while also acknowledging the problematic circumstances of (2/?)

Guess it's time to plug the Kofi again. Any bit helps as I'm actively going to be homeless in less than a month and I have to try and save what little I can ko-fi.com/neurotenical
This guy got fired from his sports reporting job for THIS post. This is easily, easily the most censorious period in my life. You can get sent to detention camps by the government for writing an op-ed or fired from your job for THIS type of post.
Part of me wants to try and find my bio mom. But I’m honestly so afraid, especially as an openly queer person. SK hasn’t been known for uh. Progressive values 🫠🙃

It is genuinely your moral duty, if you’re in the sciences, to violate the terms of your contact and take as much of the research home with you as you can. Today, tomorrow, every day your lab’s still open.

she is an intercountry #adoptee from China; she has two heart conditions and she requires a transplant; her hospital will not approve the transplant until her adopters agree to her receiving flu and COVID vaccines, which they adamantly refuse to do.
She is in heart failure.
All the people that said we'd be fine owe me $5-$5000 depending on your income.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers have developed a nasal COVID-19 vaccine that BLOCKS transmission of the virus. This suggests vaccines delivered directly to the nose or mouth could play a CRITICAL role in containing the spread of respiratory infections. Phase I clinical trials HAVE BEEN APPROVED! 🧪🧵⬇️
