I hope there's a dog in Florida named the Miami Smell Machine.

$1600 *per month*, that is

And let's not forget the co-pays, deductible, out of network costs, etc. and, oh yeah, all of the Americans who never had insurance in the first place or lost their coverage thanks to his attacks on the #ACA. Out of touch just doesn't even begin to cover it.

Greenland says 'no thanks' to Trump US hospital boat Greenland's PM reminded Trump of its free healthcare, after Trump said he was sending a boat to aid people who were allegedly

Trump wants to send med supplies because "many people" are sick & "not being taken care of." 🙄

I think he got confused again. That's America you're thinking of, not Greenland.

My mom's premiums ⬆️ by $1600 overnight thanks to his attacks on #ACA, & she's hardly alone.

Thank you, Lisa 🥰

We give a detailed accounting of the many strengths of this approach, but also share honest reflections on how we grappled with challenges. This has truly been one of the most joyful projects I've been privileged to be involved with!

Another chilling, horrific display of state violence being used to restrict the reproduction of racially marginalized people. #ReproductiveJustice #ICE #StateViolence

Ok news media, let's be clear: Trump did not 'revoke' a scientific finding. He can revoke *policy* based on that finding, but he does *not* have the power to revoke scientific findings. These are not the same thing, and it's fairly important that you get this distinction right 🤦‍♀️

The thing about scientific research is that it’s one of the few national investments that’s a clear public good even if you entirely discount the actual ostensible point of it.

In today's edition of *Things NOT to Say to a Woman You Know Is Childfree*: 'You would be a great mom. I'm sure you mother people in your life in many ways.'

This may sound supportive, but actually it doubles down on the harmful and false notion that womanhood=motherhood.

A Supreme Court ruling could bring historic drop in Black representation in Congress If the Supreme Court weakens Voting Rights Act protections against racial discrimination in redistricting, it could usher in the largest-ever drop in representation by Black members of Congress.

Slide with a graph of the world's leading billionaires on the left (Elon Musk at the top with 328.5 billion) and some statistics to give context about what a billion means in practical terms on the right. The stats on the right are: $328.5 billion= ~£252.3 billion With $1 billion, it would take 548 years spending $5,000 (~£3,830) a day to run out of money That’s spending more than the average monthly wage in the UK (£3,185) every day If you saved $100/day (about $3k per month), it would take ~27,400 years to save $1 billion Musk alone could give $40 to every person on the planet And still have $1 billion left… $327.5 billion/8.15 people=$40 per person

Just thought I'd share these stats from upcoming lecture:

With $1 billion, it would take 548 years spending $5,000 (~£3,830) a day to run out of money--that’s > mean monthly wage in the UK (£3,185) every day.

Musk alone could give $40 to every person globally.. & still have $1 billion.

“Those who wage war often conceive of those they annihilate as lives that were not worth living anyway. They don’t grieve the loss of those lives when they are killed because they are not considered to be valuable lives.”

#ICYMI, my presentation at the Fed Up Food Studies conference in South Africa explored the links between food insecurity and reproductive justice in India drawing on insights from Food Security for Equitable Futures interview data.

In the UK, facts are listed per 100g or 100ml. It's *so* much easier to compare labels! Amidst all the 'obesity epidemic' rhetoric in the US, where is the political action to regulate labels so they can be easily compared by consumers? This is an easy #PublicHealth win in waiting...

Sure, I can pull a calculator out & stand in the aisle endlessly calculating for every item I buy, but do I have the time and patience for that? No!

And, having the time for this of course corresponds to privilege. #HealthDisparities

Nutrition labels from 5 different boxes of crackers showing how variable the units for nutritional information can be.

If you want people to make #HealthyChoices, make it easy to do so.

In the US, it's very challenging to compare #NutritionFacts because label units aren't standardised. Take these cracker labels. Info is per 30g, 154g, 28g, 16g, & 14g. Which has the fewest calories per gram? Highest protein?
