I wish Finch supported custom affirmations. “I embrace gratitude” is ok, but I would prefer “I am striving to outlive the bastards” or “Go birbs! Fuck ICE!”

I didn’t get my HPV vaccine until late in my 30’s because when I was an evangelical teenager I heard over and over that the vaccine was essentially encouraging girls to have promiscuous sex. Purity culture is so gross.
The HPV vaccine is eliminating cervical cancer in a generation of women. Why would anyone be against that?
CIDRAP Op-Ed: The HPV vaccine prevents cancer. The new ACIP wants to re-examine that.
@jakescottMD
The vaccine has reduced cervical cancer by nearly 90% in women vaccinated as teens and has been studied in >70 randomized controlled trials

How to Film ICE
Filming federal agents in public is legal, but avoiding a dangerous—even deadly—confrontation isn’t guaranteed. Here’s how to record ICE and CBP agents as safely as possible and have an impact.

Among many things, Alex Pretti was a cyclist. His bike shop Angry Catfish in Minneapolis organized a memorial ride for him, and it's gone nationwide. This Saturday, the Damp Roads folks + a few local shops are organizing the Philly version. Let's show up for Alex. www.instagram.com/p/DUDaFwUjpfQ/

Doesn’t mean you should do fed posting, but if death squads are going after food delivery signal groups, no behavior will guarantee safety for anyone.

3. Right now our biggest margin of safety is the fact that there are many thousands of us, and encouraging people to get involved just makes it harder for them to arrest, detain, harass, or murder us. There is strength in numbers. There is strength in united resolve.

Protests happen, but most of what is happening in Minneapolis isn’t protesting.

One thing that irks me: people keep calling the folks on the streets in Minneapolis protestors. They are not generally there to protest, they are there to observe and document. This is the product of organizing and mutual aid. It is telling that these acts of citizenship are seen as protest!

Yes, and: academics, this is precisely why it's not as useful as some seem to think for "summarizing" - it is primed to produce that which is statistically probable. The most important things in many (if not most) articles, meetings, presentations are the unusual, less statistically probable parts!
There are a few settings where conjuring up “the kind of thing you’d expect someone to say” is a genuinely useful tool for me as a probably-autistic communications professional. But what makes my art good is that it’s *not* what people expect me to say.
