.@boburnham 's "Inside" is incredible, and one of my favorite details about the special is this still from the song "Sexting." Bo projects a long text paragraph where he's talking about #consent with his partner, and it's amazing.

Alright, #APHA2022, which table has the best giveaways? I'll start - @PittPubHealth has @EatnPark cookies!

@JamiePio_Pgh @jessicahessler @rachvinciguerra @TheHudsonBay @Josh_Berman Very delayed, but right back at you friend!

Are you non-confrontational or have your conflict resolution skills been suppressed by emotionally-comforting people-pleasing behaviors? While protecting our peace is vital, let's also be mindful of how we may unintentionally block healing and personal development in the process.

"The college has seen a return on its investment, considering the boost in retention. Students receiving services through the Advocacy & Resource Center had a 4-percentage-point higher retention rate than their peers...which...equates to about $351k saved"

"References like these lead to a cycle of the public at large erasing Black people from their own culture and getting shamed for it." https://t.co/1KPq6w1lDa

"[Students] feel gaslighted by the fact that they’re told they have enough financial aid, that they’re smart enough and shouldn’t be struggling for basic needs, that if they’re struggling they’re not working hard enough.”

Free menstrual products are now available in select gender inclusive bathrooms & women's bathrooms across @StMarysMD campus! This work has been a labor of love shared by many people & I'm so grateful for the students who helped make this happen. Thanks @SeahawksSGA & @GoAuntFlow!

I just want the @USWNT to know that my love for them is unconditional. They’ve made a positive impact on my life simply because they exist, and I get to see myself reflected in them. That alone means so much to millions of women and girls across the globe. Thank you ❤️🤍💙

(2/2) "'...discriminating against them through inferior wages and working conditions, and forcing the women to struggle for the equal pay and fair treatment they deserve."

This is what men's allyship looks like:

"The men's union backed up the USWNT's appeal, writing in Friday's brief that U.S. Soccer 'has spent more than three decades treating the women as an afterthought...'" (1/2)

I think now is the perfect time to think about how we, consumers and contributors of social media, helped create the toxic environments that rapidly degrade the mental health of young women like Simone Biles and Naomi Osaka.

[Helen Ann Lawless @HelenAnnLawless]

@JamiePio_Pgh Love you, friend ❤️

[Kavitha A. Davidson @kavithadavidson]

Simone Biles won nationals w/broken toes in both feet, worlds w/a kidney stone, and has carried the burden of being a face of sexual assault survivors as a national institution failed to support them

Half of y'all yelling about "toughness" can't handle wearing a mask in Wegman's

[Helen Ann Lawless @HelenAnnLawless]

@dcsabatini I feel this on a spiritual level
