Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

Every Wednesday we’re calling our city council members to demand a baseline of at least %.5 of the city budget be used to fund NYC libraries.

Join us in calling!

Here’s a script with instructions bit.ly/3KM9Eq9 , and you can look up your city council member here : council.nyc.gov/districts/

A meme based on the movie Mean Girls where one of the popular kids says “on Wednesdays we wear pink”, this image shows two characters from the movie at a lunch table with the text “on Wednesdays we demand %.5 of the city budget for library funding”

. @espn.com - if I was interested in the Washington game I'd change the channel. That score box on the screen is just distracting.

If you told this person that there used to be a book, published annually and given away for free, listing every person who lived in your town by last name alphabetically, including their street address and telephone number, a book everyone voluntarily sent their info to, they would not believe you.

Special education isn't a "nice thing to have." It isn't "charity" or doing something to make us feel better. It is a right. The right to a Free Appropriate Public Education is codified in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, signed by a Republican president.

Police officers who publicly declare that they’ll quit if a mayoral candidate they dislike wins the election are (1) usually bluffing—sure buddy, toss away that paycheck and pension—and (2) exactly the sort of cops cities would be better off without, ones who don’t see themselves as public servants.
