Per Pro Publica:Texas Maternal Mortality rate increased by 33% since abortion ban took effect. Republicans are killing us. And just wait until vaccination is banned.How many need to die for a shadow cabinet with daily briefings is put in place? @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Feeling safer yet now that Trump is president??? Unvaccinated teens dying from flu, chief anti vaxxer is now going after SSRIs, anti psychotic drugs, weight loss drugs. Epidemiologists are fired as the bird flu is starting to show up in humans. And this is just in HHS…

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Are doctors willing or able to use this information and start conversations about vaccinations in all their offices? Soon, this data will no longer be reported, just as infant mortality rates are being "buried." #medsky

@drscotthadland.bsky.social

#medsky Would there be a possibility to post in your medical offices the announced cuts in medical research and funding, along with spelled out consequences on different illnesses? As the dissemination of critical information seems to become increasingly harder, what are the options for physicians?

Was there anything on BlueSky about A Day Without Immigrants national protest? If yes, what/who should I follow? Thank you.

@jahimes.bsky.social Your last newsletter implores people to take action without mentioning any specific resources. Please add a list of organizations and actions you feel might be effective in "giving a damn." Direction and leadership are the two critical variables here.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social @jahimes.bsky.social Please be as loud and persistent finding platforms to disseminate facts as Trump and his acolytes have been about spreading lies in the past ten years. Every day, this administration endangers all of us more.

“I do this so the country won’t change me.”

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social You go, Chris! Thank you for denouncing so clearly the abhorrent EO freeing violent J6 offenders, and spelling out the consequences for our democracy. Please keep taking your message to all available media, continuously and tirelessly. Informing, educating, denouncing.

@jahimes.bsky.social Please call out every outrageous move made by Trump and his allies loudly and repeatedly. Aren’t the lessons of the past 10 years clear enough? Where is the social media presence of the democrats? Inform, denounce, educate, over and over again.

💯

Already the joke of, and humiliation by, the international community before his second term even starts. Make America Great Again?

In January 20, 1961, the temperature at noon was 22 degrees and 8 inches of snow had fallen in the morning. John F. Kennedy still had his inauguration on the steps of the Capitol.

The comments seem to suggest that local newspapers, local TV channels, local organizations are the most effective in helping people in LA. This will also be the way to spread trusted information and organize the fight to recover our beloved democracy, values and norms. The Civil Rights model is key.

I am constantly surprised that our local elected officials do not go online to point out the differences between good leadership and pathological ones. Biden "I have to wait for facts before I comment on the attack in NO" vs the immediate: "Illegal immigrant committed the attack". Education is key.

Reading Trump's post about Syria, I am reminded of the failure of the Biden administration to provide a strong and persuasive voice on social media to inform and educate Americans on both domestic and international issues, trumpet victories, and generally dominate the discourse. Who will step up?

Hello, I am new to the site and trying to figure out how to get access to psychology/neuroscience feeds. I would be grateful for any suggestion/enlightenment!
