Elon Musk acknowledged Tuesday that there might not have been a federal plan to spend $50 million on condoms for Gaza — two weeks after the White House press secretary told the false story at an official briefing and more than a week after the president baselessly doubled the phony figure to $100M

Disability is a natural part of the human experience. It’s not a flaw in the system; it’s part of the system. Yet, society keeps trying to balance its books by devaluing us, acting as if our worth is measured by what we can produce rather than who we are. #Disability #HumanRights #AXSChat #SDGs

Living with #Pain, #Migraines, and #Spasms can look like this: hair & makeup done, —but it takes a makeup artist, hairstylist, rest days before and leaves me recovering for days after. Pain isn’t always visible. but it’s far from easy. Talk about this more. #Disability #Accessibility #ChronicPain

Tension is very high ahead of Monday. I'm feeling it. You're feeling it. I've said this multiple times, but pause & think—it is critical that we: 1. Breathe 2. Prioritize our mental health 3. Don't resort to infighting due to frustration 4. Pace ourselves because this is a marathon, not a sprint

Society learned to say something from the media that slavery survivors hate: "Child sex slavery" No. It's rape slavery. Children cannot consent. That phrase is gross and makes us all very sad and angry. Sex implies normalcy. Consent. Sex is healthy and awesome. Say child rape slavery. Ty.

Elijah Cummings, 1 of the greatest EVER in Congress. He ALWAYS stood up FOR the PEOPLE. The words he speaks are from 2019 and asks how history will reflect on that time period. Well, he would be asking the SAME question if he was here today & ALSO if we just "stood on the sidelines & said nothing."👏

My heart breaks for Eric Braeden (Victor Newman on "The Young And The Restless") who lost his family home last week in the LA Fires. He spoke out about STOPPING the spread of Misinformation & Disinformation, even though he lost EVERYTHING. Politicizing this by LYING is as DESTRUCTIVE as the fires!🙏💜
