Probationary periods are a bad employer-centric practice. They disproportionately impact caregivers & protected classes who often are challenged by transportation, caregiving & illnesses during the first 30-90 days of work. Get rid of these periods. Most employers can fire most of us at will anyway

What Maine Gov Janet Mills did is significant & within reach for many of us Mills said NO She’s not well known, that room was full of republicans, and ME is a divided state: CD1 voted Harris & CD2 Trump. She put time, resources & her rep on the line for trans women, for democracy & to stop a coup

a lot of people want to not be held responsible for slavery and indigenous genocide but want to hold onto the generational wealth and preferential structures resulting from them. I mean, I know it's obvious but I think it should probably get said out loud a lot more often

I've been processing the termination of the HHS Secretary’s Advisory Committee on Long COVID, of which I was an unpaid volunteer member. This decision doesn’t just eliminate a committee—it diminishes the voices of millions suffering. 🧵

people can work really hard at something and they can still be a fraud running a scam. it’s often not easy to tell and, at least for me, really stings when i figure it out and i feel ashamed but obviously it should be on them
