Just imagining how much better it would be if ALL news stories about vaccine-preventable illnesses were illustrated with pictures of people with the disease, not pictures of needle injections. If you must show something that people will find scary & unpleasant, make it the disease, not the cure.
I'm so tired of measles.

I'm also tired of people using needle shots on stories like this.

Show what measles looks like.

Trump has posted to Truth Social at least 75 times and counting in the past hour.

It’s weirdo garbage produced by random people on X and TikTok across a number of topics, like conspiracy theories about Ilhan Omar and influencers who claim “communists” are attempting a color revolution in the U.S.

We have a fascist regime attempting to take total control and their disrespect of the military and scapegoating of its leaders is far, far from an insignificant thing.

There is much to be decided in the near future, but these things are not small.

In this thread of loving on Black women in justice work and leading. I want to give a gentle note that many people do not know - it was actually Coretta that got Martin out into the streets…she was already and activist 😬 he couldn’t have met a better partner. And she carried the name onward.
🧵THREAD On December 1, 1955 secretary, investigator and founder of Alabama's NAACP Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger in Montgomery. This is often considered the start of the modern civil rights movement.

Don't know about Rosa Parks?

Glad you asked.

The word "doomerism" is horribly abused on here. Some of you use it as code for "telling me what I don't want to hear" and it's childish.

I completely agree with the underlying assumption that rural Republicans are far more Progressive than their voting track lead you to believe. It's literally my whole job. However I think we have to tackle the brand issue of Democrats head on and relocalize politics, the right will use the same
"Red states are full of working people who are getting screwed by Republican policies yet vote Republican anyhow because they loathe the [Dems]...Those people can be won back by working class candidates who campaign on pro-worker issues, and are not Democrats."

Today is the 70th anniversary of Rosa Parks' arrest. Six myths: 1) She wasn't old or tired. 42 years old that day, she had a "life history of being rebellious" & had spent two decades helping to turn the Montgomery NAACP into a more activist branch alongside ED Nixon and Johnnie Carr.
