@heykahn people feel weird about this, but persuasion is very valuable in the medical field! sometimes patients have reservations about getting a surgery or procedure, e.g. bc their family member died during a surgery. telling a story that resonates with them could save their life! π€·πΌββοΈ
It blows my mind how there are two totally different takes on where weβre at with COVID. The nurse and doctor at our pediatrician office told me today that they are seeing their highest rates of COVID and cases are much more severe in kids.
@percpoop this just hurting delivery drivers. i had this happen once as an uber eats driver & you're hurting the delivery drivers more than you are mcdonald's/big corporations :/
Abortion is now illegal in Missouri.
No exceptions for rape or incest.
Right before I was elected, I met a pregnant 11 year old who has been raped by her uncle.
What about HER rights?

The white folks that work at the front desk at WeWork are off today to observe the holiday.
The Black people that do all the custodial and cleaning services in here working. β¨β¨Happy Juneteenth!

@hby P.S. it can be argued that the Bible, when referencing gayness, is actually talking about pedophilia. I'm no biblical scholar and i don't want to use my energy to become one, but Google may be able to shed some light if you're curious
The Christian Church is rampant with the idea that being queer and/or trans means having a sinful lifestyle & being hell-bound. They even question whether queer/trans Christians are "true" Christians. You may think this set of beliefs is harmless, but (1/x)
@hby and I'm definitely not saying being killed or tortured for proclaiming harmless beliefs is condonable, either. but making someone uncomfortable by telling them that being queer/trans is sinful is unnecessary. most queer/trans people already know that a lot of Christians think so
