Love my family. Love books. Love nature. Love truth. Love science. Love social justice. Love equality. Being an empath today is really hard.

Some GREAT good news for a change:

The streets of Romania are erupting in celebration tonight.

Nicusor Dan, Romania’s pro-EU candidate beats hard-right rival to win the presidential election.

Many say he has done the impossible 53.92 vs 46.08%🥳

The world is rejecting Trumpism.

If Trump can disappear green card holders for protesting war, he can disappear you.

If he can disappear visa holders for criticizing him, he can disappear you.

If he can disappear asylum seekers for tattoos, he can disappear you.

We must speak out now — before there is no one left to speak out.

Measles was declared eliminated from the United States in 2000 by the World Health Organization due to the success of vaccination efforts.

It's back and now in 18 states? Why? Anti-vaxxers.

Every day on the internet makes it abundantly clear that some people have never had a single person turn around and say to them, ‘Cite your sources’ because, and I say this with every ounce of love I can muster as a teacher: while you are entitled to your opinion, that does not make it fact.

So the Trump administration’s argument is that this dude, not a court, should have the final say on who ends up in an El Salvadoran prison.

Does that make you feel safer in America?
Presented with evidence that innocent people who are not members of any gang were wrongly deported to a slave prison in El Salvador, Homan flatly insists that all of them were in fact gang members (but he's unwilling to detail any evidence showing it)

We just walked out of the state of the Union. My shirt showed Trump an important message: NO KINGS LIVE HERE.

In the spirit of student protestors from the Civil Rights Movement, I’m proud to have protested and walked out with many of my colleagues. This is NOT a normal time.

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children.

We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread.
