We can and should do better! Let’s end menstruation stigma and period poverty! Take note of what @shematologist.medsky.social outlines below this video. #Men4Menstruation #HeForShe #PeriodPoverty 🩸

Shocking: Yet another headline about violins on the CTA. It's time for the transit agency to bring back train conductors! 🚃 🎻 🎼 chicago.suntimes.com/crime/2025/0... @chicagocta.bsky.social

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

MAHA is a fraud. Lead is a neurotoxin and they are abandoning children being poisoned

BREAKING from @science.org: The Trump admin is seeking to kill nearly all climate research at NOAA, its climate science agency. Its near-final budget proposal would end all NOAA research labs, academic institutes, and regional climate centers. And it wants to fully end the NOAA Research division.

@caseybmulligan.bsky.social how is the economy today? Is your work paying off?

Sadly, not much has changed.

I did 30 hour shifts as a physician. I wouldn’t do it again at this age. Cory Booker is next level.

Thank you @corybooker.com

The CDC Buried a #Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations. The move — along with the CDC’s explanation — is a sign that the nation’s top public health agency may be falling in line under Secretary Kennedy a longtime critic of vaccines. www.propublica.org/article/meas...

Super fun, super silly science! The fish doorbell

Today I got to spend a few minutes in the garden with my boys showing them the new growth coming up and that felt really good.

NOW: motion hearing underway in Judge Boasberg's court on whether to vacate his TRO barring the Trump admin from deporting people under the Alien Enemies Act. JUDGE: "Did you not understand my statements in that hearing? Did you tell DHS it was an order from me to turn the planes around?"

So an interesting thing happened in 2023 that I missed until just now: when we look at vaccine safety, we examine the rates of adverse events and we typically use case definitions made by the Brighton collaboration, which give diagnostic criteria and rank the level of certainty (level 1 is...

Brandon Johnson is doing some great work and the head of NAAPR argues more people need to be developing unity with current civil rights movement. thetriibe.com/2025/03/an-o...

Historian here: “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ― Theodore Roosevelt

NEW: A source tells me that response teams for FEMA set to deploy to the South Carolina wildfires are unable to travel because their government issued travel cards have had their limits reduced to $1. FEMA response team cards were supposed to be exempt.

Trump cares so much about the fentanyl problem that they canceled the program within USAID that identified fentanyl being smuggled at the US border.

Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts. Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressionally mandated. They’ve saved millions of lives. 🧵

Re Zelensky at the WH, yet again, feminists and trauma/abuse- informed thinkers are years ahead of political analysts. There is no acceptable affect, no way to charm an abuser, and no “deal” other than playing very very dead that would change how Trump and his flying monkey Vance behaved.

The guy who asked Zelensky if he owned a suit, Brian Glenn, is a reporter for the pro-Trump media network Real America’s Voice and also Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's boyfriend. He got one of the rare Oval Office interviewer spots only after the White House blocked the Associated Press.

Supporters Praise Trump For Upholding Traditional American Value Of Supporting Murderous Dictators For Political Gain

Elon Musk is firing workers and cancelling contracts across the government, except of course the ones that make him richer. It doesn't take a genius to see who he's working for, and it ain't you.

Republicans just voted to kill their constituents. This should be ok every news channel. Headlining every newspaper. Everyone needs to know.

An entire professional medical society has committed to bluesky. That’s amazing!

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

A feature in Nature gives a look inside a new recycling plant that is slated to open this year that will use a new way to break down ‘unrecyclable’ plastic waste. 🧪
