The American Academy just apologized to Hamdan for not mentioning his name after he was attacked by Israeli settlers. This came after intense pressure from 600+ principled academy members appalled by the initial response.
@UmActuallyShow I’m so glad other people are here mad about the doctor who question I came here to get mad cause the hurt doctor episode there is 3 of them on screen at the same time
"It's outrageous that Missouri is so close to executing Marcellus Williams," @helenprejean wrote. "He was convicted at a trial where prosecutors intentionally struck at least one Black person from the jury pool ... His DNA is not on the murder weapon." https://t.co/I7hMko9Etz
#MarcellusWilliams is subject to be executed at 6PM central time, for the rest of us just shy of 2.5 hours from now.
People are delivering hundreds of thousands of signatures to @GovParsonMO to change his mind (tik tok @ Joemcleantv)

We, like Marcellus Williams’ son, are holding onto hope for a miracle today.
@GovParsonMO, stopping this execution would not only honor the pleas of prosecutors, the victim’s family, and those who know Marcellus—it would also show respect for the dignity of Black life.
If you’ve been Covid cautious for the last 4.5 years & you’re currently dealing with an infection - it’s NOT your fault.
The new variants are extremely virulent. Very few people are taking precautions. We still don’t have clean air benchmarks.
“You do you” isn’t working 🧵/1
GOOD NEWS: The US government has announced that it will again offer free at-home Covid tests starting in late September.
You will be able to get 4 more free test kits sent through the mail.
As of today, this is how women must dress in Afghanistan, according to the Taliban's Supreme Leader.
The following rules are now in effect: The full face must be covered—no hands, nothing visible. The black veil was presented as a "recommendation" a year ago, now it is the law.
Joe Biden definitely was treated with medications that the rest of us do not have access to. Have treated thousands upon thousands of COVID patients and yeah Paxlovid alone doesn’t work that good. No way in hell he went from barely being able to speak without gasping to screaming
Well, it finally happened to me. ER nurse called HOSPITAL SECURITY on me last night because I declined to remove my mask--despite repeatedly stating immune compromised, have #LongCOVID, can't risk reinfection & asking to speak to my ER doctor on options. Public health? Free fall.
Yes! Transgender people are my precious family and I love them with the bottom of my heart.
Transgender people are less accepted in Japan than in the US, and people may look strange when they declare their identity, but I don't mind.
It's a small thing like people saying bad things about Chiitan, so it's not an issue.
It's far more important that transgender people all over the world "are able to enjoy life peacefully, being themselves, as a matter of course."
I will continue to send out messages to protect the rights of transgender people.
Please lend your support to Chiitan. Your voices give me energy.
I love you all. Please continue to be by my side.
