My bestest bud, Masato. Sadly, he passed away at 3:15 AM, May 4th, 2021. Not a day goes by that I don't think of him.
I miss you so much little dude.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

Welcome to America, where peaceful protesters get tear-gassed and thrown to the ground like ragdolls.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

ICE racially profiles an elderly man and takes him into custody. They realize their mistake and release him. They also intimidate witnesses. This incident occurred in Long Beach, California.

HISTORIC & HORRIFIC: The U.S. just handed over part of its sovereignty to Qatar. Pam Bondi openly calls for extrajudicial killings of “Antifa” — and Mike Johnson says any protester counts as Antifa. 😳 In any sane country, this would be a national emergency. In ours? “Just another slow news day.” 💀

I just watched the video of the Portland Cop threatening to arrest an ICE agent if they drive their truck through a crowd. Now I see this where the General of the Oregon National Guard says if they get called up they will protect the protesters. People are fed up.

Oregon general’s testimony that National Guard troops ‘will be protecting any protesters’ gains traction online

Brigadier General Alan R. Gronewold made the comments to state lawmakers Sept. 30, and they drew notice on social media this week.

Algoma is cutting out the CO2-generating chemical reaction part of the equation altogether by not making steel from iron ore at all at its Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., plant — it's shutting down the blast furnace and coke oven used to do that.

The editors of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) were apparently fired today.

The precursor to MMWR began in 1878 to address emerging public health threats rapidly.

We are not “great” without it. We are vulnerable to threats from sporadic foodborne illness to bioterrorism.

I wrote a book! And I promise you'll love it 🤩
Here's what Philip Pullman says about it: 'This book is lovely - Miranda's observations are as sharp as ever, and in a strange way they seem to sharpen my own.'
Buy your copy here: geni.us/ThePlaceImin ❤️

A photo of the book in hardcover against a wooden background. The cover is a very light peach colour and has illustrations by Adam Beer of: a café in orange, a seagull and a girl with a kite in blue, a green pigeon, pink cow parsley and plastic bags and a yellow origami boat and leaves. The title is The place I’m in ‘WHAT I SEE WHEN I STOP TO NOTICE’ in black letters. It has this quote at the bottom ‘This Book is lovely’ by Philip Pullman.

A photo of a double-page spread of chapter heading ‘ON THE STREET’. The colour of the pages is blue, and the book is against a pink background. There are observations by me (the black text is too small for most people to read) and black-and-white illustrations by Adam Beer of: umbrellas in the rain, a puddle, the top of a double-decker bus, the side of a building and peoples’ legs and feet waiting in a bus queue.

A photo of a double-page spread from the chapter ‘IN A CAFÉ’. The colour of the left-hand pages is white, and the colour of the right-hand page is peach, and the book is against a pale-pink background. There are observations by me (the black text is too small for most people to read) and a black-and-white illustration on the left-hand page by Adam Beer, of two women talking in a café.

A photo of a double-page spread from the chapter 'AT THE PARK'. The colour of the pages is pink and the text is black and illustrations are in black and white. There are observations by me (the text is too small for most people to read I this image) and a black-and-white illustration on the left-hand page by Adam Beer, of a park with runners and trees, a close-up of a bush and a bee near a lavender flower. The right hand page has illustrations of a couple walking in a park from behind, a dachshund on a lead and a woman on a bicycle - facing away from us.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.
