Platforms that hand a megaphone to anti-vaccine messengers, pseudoscientific health advice, and outright scientific disinformation are playing a dangerous game. It’s time to acknowledge the risks. 🧪 open.substack.com/pub/drheathe...
Viral Lies: The Deadly Consequences of Science Disinformation

Save your energy for battles that matter and don’t engage with trolls. If someone posts nonsense, don’t reply. Go to their profile, find a post with misinformation, report it, and block. Don’t amplify it by replying. Stay safe. Stay sane. Here’s a photo of some petrified wood with lichens. 😊 #resist

Just a friendly reminder, and update, to the 70M+ who put the convicted felon back on the grift and corrupt, transactional path to our democracy. #RESIST and save our Constitution. 💙
Of. Course.

The chainsaw clown show is a fraud

Remember to welcome folks who haven’t been keeping up on current events. There are no gatekeepers in the resistance. Everyone is welcome! open.substack.com/pub/drheathe... #resist
I didn't vote and now I'm afraid to ask about what's going on...
It's ok! Things got weird. It's not too late to catch up. I'm so glad you're here.

This would be funny if it wasn’t so serious. And our dumbass president doesn’t seem to know what’s going on with his administration because he’s too busy on his revenge-o-rama tour.

Incompetence at its finest.
Happy One Month Anniversary to this story.

Everyone benefits in a society that provides access to education and protects freedom of thought. We don't need a carefully crafted message unfurled from the ivory tower. No gatekeeping by degree or credential checks. Anyone who ever learned anything at school can help defend education. #resist

How can we protect education from an authoritarian regime? Leaders in higher ed need to build broad alliances with vocational schools, community colleges, and technical programs. We need student athletes as much as we need valedictorians to get involved. #resist #edusky

Things I learned from 20 years as a good Mormon wife
The church and my ex-husband taught me some stupid lessons. At the time, I believed this bullshit. Eight years later, I'm furious that this was normal. I'm done shutting up.
