- This is the level of petty I aspire to be Harvard’s response to Secretary of Education Linda McMahon is the evolved form of “your vs you’re”
- Less than 1% of the US military identify as transgender. This does not invalidate them nor justify the hate-filled obsession this presidency has in going after them. These folks have serve our country proudly despite escalating hatred This administration continues its unapologetic hatred tour
- Federal $$ for public health programs are gutted, how will you: *Know your groceries are safe? *Get access to PrEP or STI testing? *Get access to updated vaccines? *Be informed of local health emergencies? What will you blame the next pandemic on once those “public health initiatives” are gone
- KNEW IT. All those MAGA men just couldn’t resist me 💅
- Lessons from any social media - I curate my own safe space. If I choose to limit replies to who I follow is something I do to protect my mental health. Threatening to block me is all sorts of parasocial gross. Don’t be like this. It is not anyone’s responsibility to teach you social cues
- Greyhound, I promise I will never talk smack about you ever again. Bravo
- Got the job. Start next week. More details to come on what I will be doing, but it will be public health related. Ya’ll haven’t got rid of me yet.
- …. Alright who broke Bluesky?
- If anyone has even the slightest doubt that he wasn’t going to bulldoze his way to a 3rd term…. Exhibit A -
- Hi folks. For many that were impacted with the recent layoffs at the CDC, I know many that are just starting off in their careers who are barely making enough to support putting food on the table. If you can, please donate in the link below.
- Clarifying a few things: This will be a state/county government level position, so no, not leaving the US Government positions are very hard to translate to private sector. Also great pay and flexibilities are few and far between Also, public health funding in general has been slashed everywhere…
- Since I was laid off from CDC, I’ve been on the job hunt and sent out my CV to multiple places(close to 100). I’ve finally scheduled my first interview. I also realized I’ve not done a job interview in almost 13+ years 😣 Send good vibes and tips 😫
- *stares at the economy in freefall* And with what fucking money? That $5K barely covers annual expense for a baby.
- RFK has noted numerous times on his intent to attack the pharmaceutical industry head on, especially psychoactive drugs (I.e. adhd medication and antidepressants). This is JUST a stepping stone towards creating a registry for that as well
- I hate giving this vile sack of shit anymore visibility. Are we surprised she’s just working her way thru the LGBTQIA+ acronym?
- It's quite interesting and very telling when folks are coming out in defense of corporations still. You really are telling on yourselves here. I don't need to do anything.
- Perhaps read the rest of the thread. Instead of throwing around straw man arguments
- Got a 3rd party survey asking me if I will support target if they reinstate their DEI policy. My response was a resounding “Fuck No” Companies rolling back DEI did it despite years of evidence, so stop calling it a mistake. Companies that abandon DEI will be abandoned by us.
- The new Covid dot gov website is nothing but a huge drive to push anti scientific bullshit. More importantly, it reignites anti-Asian hatred. Simply put, those who push this narrative also promote racist ideologies ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- To my trans loved ones, you don’t need to prove your gender identity. It’s time we show you unconditional acknowledgement and love To my autistic loved ones, you don’t need to prove your worth to us. It’s time we celebrate your amazing contributions and worth You don’t owe society a goddamn thing
- My “favorite” thing is when some “erudite” account post some pubmed article without comment like it’s a “GOTCHA” moment My response to RFK’s statement yesterday has not changed. CDC’s own report discussed higher rate of autism BECAUSE OF BETTER DIAGNOSIS AND AWARENESS. www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes...
- # of deaths directly attributed to autism - 0 # of deaths directly attributed to measles in the US in 2025 - 3 (and likely to rise) Meanwhile this sack of shit is sitting here pontificating environmental factors for autism ffs
