I quietly left this app as soon as people could pay to get their comments promoted by the algorithm. Just popping back in to say I'm @sheccabaw on BlueSky to anyone who cares
@TeeMushell The final line was SO DUMB like I guess it was for shock value/humor? But it also felt like they were trying to imply that your bits/sexuality make you human (or that a vagina makes you a woman... yuck)
@TeeMushell UGH YES and what was up with America's daughter actually critiquing Barbie and it just being played for laughs? It felt like they were trying to (for lack of a better word) gaslight the audience into thinking Barbie has always been progressive
I decided today that I’m going to see if I can find the restaurant with the highest number of brothers. I am on strike and have nothing better to do with my time. Please join me.
Whenever I visit my parents and my dad is watching sports, I think to myself, "Oh man I'm gonna have the BEST small talk with my coworkers when I get back."
Disney doing this right after the actors strike goes into action is very nasty however like we ain’t forget y’all still refuse to pay these ppl living wages
!!!!!!!!!!!!! @JNJNews, THANK YOU for choosing #PatientsNotPatents. Takes real guts to live up to your credo. Generic bedaquiline WILL BE AVAILABLE in almost every country with a high tuberculosis burden. I am so happy and grateful to the Stop TB Partnership, J&J, and especially the activists around the world who are standing up for TB patients. So much more work to do, but WHAT WONDERFUL NEWS TO WAKE UP TO.
@daysnotlived@Neutrogena @JNJGlobalHealth @JNJNews Ohh you just reminded me that my sunscreen is Neutrogena too! I'll have to remember to buy another brand when I restock (unless J&J, ya know, doesn't renew the patent)
Like many intentionally confusing corporate crisis response messages, this says a bunch of things that are true but don’t mean what you think, like for example:
“On April 5, during a World Health Organization meeting, the GDF shared its intent to launch a tender for generic versions of SIRTURO® 100mg in the third quarter of 2023”
This sounds like it says “everybody can have generic bedaquiline!!” But actually they *had to allow* the production of a generic because some countries had the power and systems in place to reject their attempt to extend their patent. The generic will not be available in countries where the patent extension wasn’t rejected, just like John said in his video.
Unless that’s not the case @JNJNews!!
If you’re telling us that you will allow the sale of generics anywhere in the developing world then we will happily send thank you baskets to your entire c-suite! Please let us know! Maybe we got it wrong and you only did the arduous work of extending the patent in a bunch of developing countries for funsies!
I HAVE RETURNED TO MAIN because I am FURIOUS that @JNJGlobalHealth is preventing millions from accessing life-saving treatment with bedaquiline, thereby costing innumerable lives and increasing the global risk of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. https://t.co/AbTdNzC1Sm

It's 2010. You and your friends are at the barstool table in the back corner of Taco Bell. The radio is playing Black Horse and the Cherry Tree for the third time in forty minutes. You order another volcano taco so you aren't technically loitering. You are at peace.
