Information hygiene request - please circulate & take action.

I’m getting bombarded with frantic fragments.

Information flow is crucial right now, and every link in the chain matters. This is a concrete place where you can play a massive role in improving transmission.

Photo of two boys - one vaccinated against smallpox, the other not - published in 1901 by Dr. Allan Warner.

Smallpox killed over half a billion people in the 20th century alone. On 8 May 1980, the WHO announced its eradication, which was achieved through #vaccines, surveillance, and containment.

Did I just spend an hour trying to get Apple Shortcuts to create a table in a note, learning markdown and resorting to HTML, only to find out it CAN'T do it?

Nope. Not me.

Almost 20 years ago, a doctor on TV was asked, "Isn't 12 a little early for a kid to be deciding to transition?" And her response was, "It's old enough for them to decide that it's not worth living anymore if they can't."

That was the only argument I ever needed to hear about gender affirming care.

Hellooooo #booksky (and anyone else too)

I'm looking for recommendations on non-fiction books about the Victorian Era. Mostly looking for books focusing on GB, but would love books about other areas during the same time period.

Also open to fictional books that are good depictions of the time!

Trench foot, c.1916. During WWI, this painful condition was brought on when soldiers stood for long periods of time in icy puddles or mud. Among the British alone, some 75,000 soldiers were taken to the hospital for trench foot during the war. Learn more in my book #TheFacemaker.

It’s really disheartening to see trans users having to step back from Bluesky because of the influx of transphobic harassment. Trans posters built the culture of this platform and it would behoove cis allies to advocate for their safety as Bluesky expands and they get targeted
