What #song have you sung today?

Dark gray graphic with a white outline of a human head and brain at the top. Below, the title reads “The Neuroscience of Singing.” The text explains that singing activates all four lobes of the brain—frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital—and can cause lasting structural changes. It promotes neuroplasticity, rewires damaged neural pathways, improves speech, language, and cognitive functions, and supports emotional and physical well-being. The handle “@caricole” appears at the bottom.

This is the outcome of recruiting GOONS and collaboration with agencies that took an oath to protect the public and people they are supposed to be serving.
Graphic with a black background showing a quote about El Paso County Sheriff deputies supporting a federal immigration operation. The quote says deputies didn’t have business cards, wouldn’t say who was in charge, claimed not to know about warrants, and lied to press and volunteers. Below, bold red text reads: “This is not isolated. It’s part of Colorado’s alarming pattern where local law enforcement assists federal deportation forces, destroying community trust and putting everyone at risk.” To the right is a photo of a sheriff's SUV with two people near the rear and the words "EL PASO COUNTY SHERIFF" visible. At the bottom right is the logo of the Colorado Rapid Response Network with the words “TU VOZ ES EL PODER.”

History is fascinating at any age.
Excerpt from Michael K Honey’s book “To The Promised Land”
A photograph of a book page discussing Senator Joseph McCarthy and his aide Roy Cohn. The highlighted text reads: "would go on to tutor real estate developer Donald Trump to continue in the art of the Big Lie and no-holds-barred attacks against anyone perceived to be an opponent." The page number at the bottom is 71.

Can’t help but think of the impact on a society with a similar land grab.
A page from a history book discussing Mao Zedong's early motivations and policies in China. It highlights how Mao was inspired by the struggles of rice farmers in Hunan and sought land reform to redistribute land and liberate the underclass. However, the passage explains that things worsened under his leadership, as farmers were forced into inefficient communes, leading to poor-quality steel production, deforestation, and a shift away from agriculture that caused a massive famine. It concludes by stating that an estimated 45 million people died during the Great Leap Forward. Several sentences are underlined and bracketed in red ink for emphasis.

A statement condemning political violence in the U.S. as a violation of democratic norms. It highlights how the shooter’s access to assault weapons enabled rapid and deadly attacks on the homes of Minnesota State Senator John Hoffman and State Representative Melissa Hortman. The statement asserts that assault weapons are designed for maximum casualties in minimal time and calls them inherently offensive, not defensive, with no place in communities.

Screenshot from the Bell Policy Center website discussing the disconnect between the contributions of undocumented immigrants in Colorado and the political narratives about them. The highlighted section explains that while undocumented immigrants contribute significantly through taxes, political debates often focus on costs like education and emergency healthcare. It warns against the selective use of data to advance anti-immigrant policies and notes that these false narratives have been used—even by Colorado legislators—to block supportive initiatives. The section below introduces “Inequities in Tax Policies for Undocumented Immigrants.”

Screenshot from the Bell Policy Center website titled “Tax Contributions of Undocumented Immigrants in Colorado.” It highlights the significant economic role of undocumented immigrants, noting that if just 10% left the state, Colorado would lose $23.8 million in federal taxes and $12.4 million in state and local taxes. It also states that over 160,700 undocumented immigrants contribute $156.5 million in state/local taxes and $272.8 million in federal taxes annually. They fill critical labor gaps and have a net annual impact of over $1 billion on Colorado’s economy.

People with I/DD are 7x more likely to experience abuse—most of it unreported.

Caregivers, especially mothers, are also at risk.
DV isn't always physical—it's control, coercion, isolation.

Policies must protect the whole family.

When politics prescribes the treatment… Beware the MAGA doctor.

#PublicHealth #MisinformationKills #ScienceMatters #MAGAdoctor #Satire #MedicalEthics #TrustScience #COVIDTruth #VaccineFacts #DisinformationDetox
A red infographic titled "Clinical Presentation of a MAGA Doctor" lists nine satirical traits associated with politically conservative, anti-science physicians. The list includes: 1) Refusal to wear masks and minimizing COVID; 2) Preference for YouTube over peer-reviewed science and prescribing ivermectin; 3) Vaccine skepticism with conspiracy language; 4) Conservative media in the office; 5) Rejection of medical licensing norms; 6) Politically selective empathy; 7) More focus on social media than medical records; 8) Overuse of patriotic decor and Trump photos; 9) Complaints of censorship despite being outspoken.
