FL peeps I wrote this to state rep/sen maybe you do too Please explain how the “stand your ground” laws and rules in Florida work if someone dressed as a federal agent, such as ICE, comes on one’s property.? What identification must the federal agent show? Are they allowed to hide their faces? 1/2

@southwestairlines.bsky.social is this true? I want information about this now.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social Y’all definitely elect Rep Jasmine Crockett to House oversight ranking member and Rep AOC as second in command for Dems on House oversight.

#HealthFacts if your community doesn’t supplement the water supply, kids need daily prescription #flouride starting age six months up to age 16. Get a prescription now and stock up for your kids in case #RFKJr blocks you getting this necessary product www.Julie-Graves.com #FlourideIsSafe

PSA: One of those anecdotal data points that might be useful to know—more than a quarter of my mom's ward at her nursing home has contracted Covid in the last 10 days or so.

Just saw a comedian say "If vaccines caused autism then America would have trains" and I almost spit out my drink.

@raysbaseball.com ST AUGUSTINE IS NOT YOUR MARKET! We can’t watch any games Rays play in, home or away, because you include us in the Fanduel deal. WE ARE NOT RAYS FANS UP HERE. #FreeStAugustine #LetUsWatchBaseball

#HealthFacts it’s time to stock up on well-fitting N95 masks. If we don’t have flu vaccine and we can’t get insurance to pay for COVID vaccines (eg if insurance companies listen to #RFKJr) then we will all be at risk for fatal or ICU-level respiratory failure. #CallYourMemberofCongress #impeachRFKJr

#HealthFacts indeed @fda.gov lots of us Americans want COVID boosters- your commissioner is lying

@houstonastros.bsky.social TV announcers are terrible - put Julia Morales Clark in the booth!

1 in 5 Americans depend on Medicaid for health insurance, but they don't all know they're on it because it may go by another name (e.g., Medi-Cal, Apple, BadgerCare). I identified the name of each state's Medicaid program. If you or someone you love is in one of these programs, call 202-224-3121.

#HealthFacts limiting COVID #vaccine access is not evidence-based and is bad policy www.inquirer.com/health/coron...

www.inquirer.com/phillies/edm... @phillies really? Play the guy who has a huge batting average and great fielding!

@houstonastros.bsky.social at the Astros Rays game and I want to meet Julia!!! #formerHoustonian #fan #AstrosRule

@houstonastros.bsky.social @raysbaseball.com good physical comedy pregame

They know these boosters save lives. That's why they're still offering them to vulnerable populations. But they're cool with endangering the rest of us and our kids to please the anti-vaxxers. To put it another way they're sacrificing our kids to keep anti-vaxxers happy.

#PSA: Ticks are not insects, they're parasitic arachnids. Regular insect repellents don’t work on ticks, you have to use permethrin.

We will be in Tampa and Lutz, FL today 5-18 through Wednesday morning 5-21 and can set up house calls/meetups for medical marijuana cards to year-round and seasonal Floridians. Www.Julie-Graves.com

Business idea for people who live near Major League Baseball parks: dog care during the game. For visiting fans who travel with their dogs.

People potentially exposed- and most everyone else- should check measles vaccine status and get vaccinated if it’s due. Here are the recommendations from America’s family doctors: www.aafp.org/family-physi...

@phillies.com why is Thomson making such bad personnel decisions? Mattingly you gotta push him to send people to the minors and pull pitchers when they aren’t performing eg Nola Bohm Marsh Robert early Romano #GoPhillies

Happy Friday to everyone who knows that fluoride in water is recommended by all dentists. Reduces tooth decay by 40-70% in children. Reduces tooth loss by 40-60% in adults. Cost-effective: For every dollar spent on water fluoridation, $38 is saved in dental care costs. #DemVoice1 #Voices4Victory

@mlb.com for the love of all that is good, no more city connect uniforms!
