Anyone else in Los Angeles for this weekend's @GLASanimation festival? Is there a Friday night pre-party? #glasanimation

And zoom out: the US is ranked around 38th in healthcare, near the bottom of the developed world—and unlike almost every peer country, we still don’t have universal healthcare. Stories like this aren’t a glitch in the system; they are the system. Universal healthcare for all!

Hey Cincy: @uc_health made me ration my diabetes meds for 3 months just to get a “new patient” visit. 🧵

[Wes Modes Official💎 @WModes]

Now imagine how @uc_health treats patients who have less means, education, and wherewithal to advocate for themselves. 🧵

[Wes Modes Official💎 @WModes]

@uc_health “Comprehensive care”? I moved to Cincinnati in August with Type 2 diabetes. UC Health made me wait 3 months for a new-patient visit, refused to renew my meds, then refused to see me because I was 6 minutes late after a car accident and pushed me to February. That is not care.

@emmaogreen There is no credible way the admin - whose members have a long documented history of antisemitism - is sincerely concerned about the welfare of Jews on campus, rather than an opportunity, as David suggest, as a cudgel against those speaking out on Palestine.

[Wes Modes Official💎 @WModes]

@emmaogreen Listening to your discussion with David Remnick: disappointed that you offered the administration the grace, benefit of the doubt, and assumption of sincere motives that they themselves don't even bother to pretend. You're reporting borders on both-sides-ism.

@intagrate_io I noticed that your "drop me a line" link requires a license key, but I'd like to ask a fw questions about Instagrate Pro before I purchase. What do you suggest?

@JamesColtrain @historiatedgame I loved it. It was amazing. Suspected there were some hidden surprises in the narrative that were not revealed. I think enslaved people burn down the Blackhaven mansion, not the English.

@JamesColtrain @historiatedgame I'm excited to play it! Not nearly enough games that explore American Black history.

@magpiekilljoy What counts as art

[Wes Modes Official💎 @WModes]

Naturally I tried to Google it, but googling "Margaret Killjoy sci-fi favorite list" gets everyone's favorite Margaret Killjoy books.

[Wes Modes Official💎 @WModes]

@magpiekilljoy sorry to hit you up on this POS platform, but best place to reach you? You must somewhere sometime have published a list of your favorite sci-fi. Can you point me to that list?
