I feel like non disabled people take their downtime for granted. Being able to rest, chill with a movie or go on vacation is a pleasurable experience when healthy. When disabled? It can be impossible. Your body fights rest. Your mind is plagued with guilt. Pain makes it impossible to focus.

Trying to remember what you lost in a fire is just traumatizing all over again. Itemizing every tiny thing for insurance is exhausting. Sigh.

If you're struggling financially due to government fuckery or for any reason really and you need infant formula talk to your pediatrician we can hook you up and don't like to ask questions.

I've seen a lot of posts today and even articles written quickly about the funding situations. Very little about all the trans attacks, and no written pieces interviewing trans people, and especially trans in STEM people. As a #trans scientist, I'm grateful to know where things stand. #TransInSTEM

If you have been affected by the fires in LA, or are concerned about your ability to keep precious Drosophila strains going during the latest funding crisis, we will host your strains as a backup. Please email me. Please amplify. If you are also able to host fly strains, add your name as well.

Cn Faschismus Trump will ab morgen per Dekret trans Identität verbieten, massenhaft Migras verhaften, die Landesfläche "erweitern", bei seiner Ernennungsfeier zeigt Musk mehrfach den Hitlergruß. Zeit mal eure trans und BIPoC Bekannten zu fragen, wie es ihnen geht und was ihr grade für sie tun könnt.

It all feels like a family with a genuinely abusive family member choosing to just carry on with the holiday traditions, hoping to create normalcy through sheer will and denial.

Hey #Medsky, check in on your LA friends. In clinic this morning and there isn’t a single person here who hasn’t been affected by these fires, either by having friends or family who’ve lost homes or by losing a home themselves. And we’re back at work like nothing’s happened. We are not ok.

Insulin isn’t fucking $35. It never was. Thats a lie. A single vial of my insulin is $100. STOP USING DIABETICS AS PAWNS IN YOUR STUPID FUCKING BLUE VS RED POLITICAL FIGHTS WHEN NOT A DAMN POLITICIAN HAS DONE SHIT TO HELP 75% OF US.

"None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself as an after-thought. Walk in the sunshine. Jump in the ocean. Say the truth that you're carrying in your heart like hidden treasure. Be silly. Be kind. Be weird. There's no time for anything else." ~Keanu Reeves

Every day, people log on and ask things like 'why are the vibes so bad, why is everyone in public so awful now,' as if the people most committed to caring about others haven't been completely excluded from public life. Because of the other thing.
