The CDC has just issued a Travel Health Notice specifically related to polio popping up in about 30 countries.

They recommend making sure you’re up to date on your vaccinations, and if you are traveling to one of the countries in red, you should consider a booster.

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

If Iran successfully disrupts red sea shipping traffic, global supply chains will be disrupted in a way that may exceed COVID. This isn't Iraq, Afghanistan, and Venezuela. Iran has the ability to extract insanely high costs on the rest of the world with relatively little effort.

If Iran successfully shuts down the strait of hormuz for months or longer while destroying long term oil production capacity, it's not hyperbole that the energy crisis will result in rolling blackouts, inability to get gas, and soaring food prices that leads to famine.

It feels like we're sleepwalking into a disaster and global conflict that will change how we live for years or decades. For Americans, this may be the first time a war actually affects civilian life in a material way since World War 2.

It's absolutely surreal how no one is talking about the Iran war in daily life. No one is discussing it and they seem oblivious. This conflict is spiraling and deteriorating in a way that it will substantially disrupt daily life for most of the world for the first time in decades.

Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.

Yes waiter, I'll have a cup of tea, a scone, and if it's not too much trouble, perhaps some precedented times?

Vermont artist Tai Ericson has transformed the pages of the ‘Harry Potter’ series into portraits honoring trans women who were murdered, using the project to memorialize their lives, raise awareness of threats to the community & spark discussion of ongoing violence against transgender people #NOH8

a man in a suit and tie is wearing a crown and saying yeah boyy ! Alt: Flavor Flav says YEAH BOOYYYEEEE,!!!

If the USA Women’s Hockey team wants a real celebration and invite ,,, I’ll host them in Las Vegas. Do some nice dinners and shows and good times.

I’m sure I can get a hotel and airline to help me out here and celebrate these women for real for real. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

What happened at BAFTA makes me recall how, more often then not, when racism occurs and that's pointed out, people often rush to comfort and defend the perpetrator, not the victims.

Stunning to me that no one official even SPOKE to Jordan/Lindo after. No one paused to imagine how that felt.

HELL no. Your own hometown newspaper (which in better times for the paper I used to write for) gets your identity wrong with a racist photoswap in a post about the biggest night of your life?

A paper serving a majority Asian American metro population?

Apology, retraction, sackcloth and ashes.

The unversity experience is PRECISELY to encounter controversial and uncomfortable subjects and to learn to critically engage with those subjects.

What are we even doing anymore?

“I am somebody” shaped how millions of us saw ourselves as kids, including me. That message mattered. It still does.

We can’t trust anything coming out of this administration. It’s getting tiresome.

They’ve overturned Roe.

They’ve criminalized pregnancy in some states.

Arrested women for miscarrying.

They’re making it harder for women to vote.

They shout “repeal the 19th!”

The punishment for abortion is greater than the punishment for rape.

It’s a war on women.

ICE shot Marimar Martinez 5 times

They shot & killed Silverio Gonzalez, Keith Porter, Renee Good and Alex Pretti

They kidnapped Liam Ramos & other innocent children

They’ve detained over 4,000 people illegally

The shutdown is well deserved, but ICE should not be paid

They should be abolished
