I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

Happy 71st Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools. She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama. The past isn’t past.

Here’s MY problem with Serena doing a GLP-1 (for weight loss) advertisement. She absolutely has every right to do what she wants with her body, but in discussing its use, she talks about now being at a “healthy weight,” which is super vague and not actually a real thing. 1/4

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Looking for someone who might speak from a legal perspective to the implications of recent EOs and anticipated actions from the current administration on weight-inclusive research and education. If you know of someone, pls message me!

I don't think we talk enough about how difficult it is when your career consists of constantly battling against diet culture and trying to make people understand that what they've been told their whole life is wrong/stigmatizing/harmful. Esp when you're in a larger body. Shit is exhausting.
