This was taken in 2019 and it snowed in July which this California native is not used to nor was I prepared! Newfoundland was absolutely one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. Congrats on your move there.

One of the coldest #summer trips we have ever taken. We spent a month driving around #Newfoundland and met this cheeky #moose at #TuckamoreLodge

There are many reasons why RFK Jr. should be impeached. We don't need to further stigmatize people with opioid use disorder by pointing to his history of heroin use. He is a danger to children, disabled, elderly and poor because of his ableist, anti-science, racist and eugenicist beliefs.

NCCC’s HIV Warmline Project: In 2024, we followed up with eligible HIV Warmline callers who agreed to participate to learn: a) if the patient was still in their care; b)whether our HIV treatment recommendations were used; and c)if available, how the viral load changed. The results were powerful.

Can we agree to call the fallout of OBBA, "Maga Cuts" i.e. you no longer have medical coverage because of Maga Cuts. Your rural hospital closed because of Maga Cuts. Just like they did with "ObamaCare," we need to continually remind people of the repercussions of this reconciliation bill.
