"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

DAY 12 NF Fest: I use images a lot for research but I had not considered searching for my own book images--until I started a photography-driven project this year. YIKES! I'm so glad I came across this post today by @shreevebooks.bsky.social. So helpful! #kidlit

Jesse Ventura is right.
You can’t claim elections are “rigged” after winning the presidency, House, and Senate.
Either the system worked or your victory is illegitimate.👇

Maybe, just maybe, if enough people knew that ALL of us migrated out of Africa centuries ago, we might be kinder to those who migrate today?
This is a wonderful book! 🦋 #kidlit #stem

I made a promise to Alex’s parents to continue to tell his story.
An ICU nurse at the VA, an outdoorsman, a deeply generous, compassionate friend and family member, and a true son of Minnesota. Rest in peace, Alex.

As we wrote, reducing access to vaccines is a violation of the rights of children

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

The destruction of one of the world’s great public health agencies is a travesty. RFK Jr. seems determined to replace evidence-based science with quackery and use the CDC as his mouthpiece, by @picardonhealth.bsky.social

If a child in a classroom pointed at another student and said quiet piggy, they would be in detention.
We do not accept that behavior from children. Yet, legacy media just shrugs it off.
A new study found the Trump administration’s cuts to NIH grants disrupted more than 380 clinical trials, affecting over 74,000 participants.
The cuts disproportionately impacted trials on infectious diseases and minority communities.
At the World Conference on Lung Health in Copenhagen, @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social apologized on behalf of his country (USA) for the aid cuts that are devastating
“On behalf of my country, I am sorry and also that I am ashamed. It seems small minded but that’s because it is small minded”

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, and 75% of ALL cases are in kids under six.
In the 1960s, survival rate for ALL was 10%. Today, it’s OVER 90%.
Why? Research & development of modern chemotherapies like vincristine.

Maybe we all need to time travel, to appreciate how science & public health save us, every single day?

In 1900, 31% of all deaths were children under the age of 5. Today it’s 0.7%. Vaccines, medications, and modern science are the reason why. Trust the science, it’s been proven to work safely and efficiently time and time again.
Florida eliminated vaccine requirements which will cause preventable suffering for children and many others.They’re destroying one of humanity’s greatest public health triumphs for absolutely no reason.
