What kind of story does the data tell about Indigenous communities? https://t.co/BjlksfY5GE

@indigenousagent I always start with a carry on only and then buy too many things and need to check a bag on my way back home. At the bachelorette party/wedding I went to in Europe this summer, 5 people lost or had delayed checked bags and one never got their bag back 😳

Seeing how much the world accepts that it’s impossible to move on after watching CPR really makes me think about how we (medical professionals, especially those who work in Emergency departments) are expected to just move on immediately after a code.

Did Twitter Blue tweet just cost Eli Lilly $LLY billions?

Yes.

⚠️ A very significant storm is anticipated for western Alaska Friday into Sunday. Prepare for significant coastal flooding (potentially the highest values in over a decade) and strong winds.

@indigenousagent I don't approve of this language but here is an article from 1993 about unethical studies conducted by the U.S. military in Utqiagvik: https://t.co/VsJitJcmvm.

My beloved cousin was one of these cancer victims. She died in her 20s, leaving behind a young son.

This is a lie, and a lie that will get people killed. The last time 100,000+ Americans passed away due to influenza virus was (likely) in 1968.

We're already twice that with COVID-19. And we're going into the fall with 40,000+ new cases each day.

Here is a link to my newest single, "Work", from my album due out this summer. I have about half the tracks recorded right now. Gonna shoot a video to this at some point. Quyanaa, N'toyaxsm.

#WashYourHands takes on a different meaning when you have no running water. I so appreciate @PMHTrauma_ALE taking the time to learn what prevention means in rural #Alaska
