This is America😔

[The Mamattorney @TheMamattorney]

Motherhood in America;
Reproductive rights? No
Paid leave so we can try to breastfeed? No
Formula to feed the babies? Also, no
Childcare? No
Healthcare? No
Affordable housing? No
Student debt relief? No
Child tax credit? No

Do we get ANYTHING?
Here’s a Mother’s Day card…

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Most Americans believe the decision to have a child is one of the most sacred decisions there is, and that such decisions should remain between patients and their doctors.

Today’s Supreme Court opinion will live in infamy as a step backward for women's rights and human rights.

To fight Zoom fatigue, give people the freedom to turn their cameras off.

New experiment: videos off reduces exhaustion and boosts engagement—especially for women and newcomers.

Cameras off doesn't reflect disengagement. It helps to prevent burnout and promote attention.

Policies of insurers who unjustifiably restrict access to DBS in refractory OCD patients are inconsistent with healthcare law and deny therapy for these severely disabled patients. New opinion article out in @FrontPsychiatry @IOCDF @bcm_ocd https://t.co/FJwgcoh3wf

Schools “can’t enforce masks” but sure did enforce not letting us wear shorts or spaghetti straps.

Yes. Quitting is fine. There's no virtue in suffering.
