Hi Bluesky! My name is Gabrielle A. Perry, MPH.

I am an epidemiologist specializing in infectious diseases, a feminist writer (soon to be author), and founder of The Thurman Perry Foundation.

I eat, sleep, & breathe helping women and girls. And I talk all things books, feminism, & incarceration!

I just pre-ordered and can't freaking wait to read this! Thanks for the reminder!

Gabrielle A. Perry, MPH @geauxgabrielle.bsky.social · 8h

YALL.

Remember what I said to yall about preordering. Even if you dont plan on reading an author’s book, preordering is EXTREMELY important because it tells book publishers the kind of books they need to invest more in.

Preorder TODAY

Drake’s lawsuit against UMG over Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us" has been dismissed

"The Court concludes that the allegedly defamatory statements in ‘Not Like Us’ are nonactionable opinion, the motion to dismiss is granted”

They also noted that the song had a ‘catchy beat and propulsive baseline’

Fat people being seen in your clothes cheapens the brand. Same as when Black people popularize a brand. They see it as cheap in return instead of unattainable or classy. It’s part of branding

Having to really WRITE is an overwhelmingly difficult task at times because the deeper you go into it sometimes it gets even more difficult. You end up learning more and then you look at what you’ve written and want to rewrite ALL of it.

And that is NOT true. Writing well is a skill. It’s alot like science is best when honed and peer reviewed.

I used to take editing PERSONAL AF. But it is necessary and makes you stronger

Good writing is literally work, and it consumes time and energy. Conservatives got to run with the propaganda that it's a worthless and effortless skill because it's something anyone can do on a fundamental level.

And it was a lie! No evidence that happened, and the lie was perpetuated by her mother. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassie_...

Text that says the massacre. However, investigators concluded the person who was asked about her belief in God was not Cassie Bernall, but actually Valeen Schnurr, who survived the shooting. 4]

Wookiee noise @wookiee.bsky.social · 11h

And just writing out notes of what direction something or someone might go in, then crossing all of them off but one. Research as well. It's all contributing to an end (the end of your novel, book, short story, etc).

This type of shit started happening after Columbine.

The evangelicals DEIFIED the death of one of the poor girls who were killed that day because they heard that she professed Christ before being killed.

This behavior is honestly sick.

Snowden St. @snowden.st · May 14

Yeah, this was in Dallas in the late 90s, but we had 4 armed men come in with real unloaded guns, and take a few of us aside. Said they were here to kill believers, and asked if we were believers. After we all said "Yes", they unmasked themselves as dads from church.

Competing w the Superbowl is the dumbest thing any media network can do! There is a reason there is nothing else on T.V. when the Superbowl comes on. You're just asking for horrible ratings.

The Washington Post @washingtonpost.com · 12h

Turning Point USA announced it will host counterprogramming to the Super Bowl halftime show, called “The All American Halftime Show,” as MAGA critics have been enraged over the selection of Bad Bunny as the 2026 headliner.

MAGA rage over Bad Bunny at Super Bowl sparks an alternative show

Counterprogramming hosted by the group that Charlie Kirk founded spotlights the growing political polarization surrounding one of the biggest events of the year.
