@diningmaui Whaaaat. When we were there in March they told us they didn’t do cotton candy any longer. Are they doing it again? It was always so fun!

@keoraborealis Oh my goodness yes one of my girls is obsessed with bunnies. Nibbles big surprise is hilarious. Too many bunnies by tomie DePaola is less overtly funny but is still cute!

Now that Moderna has submitted all pediatric data to @US_FDA, we urge an immediate, transparent and thorough review. Families of children under 5 have waited a long time for the reassurance of a safe and effective vaccine.

#DYK Lillian Wald placed the 1st nurse in a U.S. public school? Henry Street nurse Lina Rogers's (below) trial run w/@NYCSchools in the early 1900s was so successful, school nurses became essential. On #SchoolNurseDay we give thanks to all the amazing school nurses! @schoolnurses

This is NOT OK.

I just got a notice by letter in mail that my insurance will no longer cover the insulin I have been getting "as of January 1, 2022". Letter was dated in February and was received after March 1, 2022.

This is NOT OK.

@mcwm Not exactly a reputable news organization there. Their last big “story” was fake news too. https://t.co/CrMIDqHJJr

Do people understand that parents of unvaccinated toddlers are fucking losing it? We have no options. Our kids are not okay. We are not okay. And every time we think about asking someone for help we have to contend w/ the fact that they could get infected, so many of us don’t.

This is the most concise, comprehensive overview of The US Navy's history of mismanagement of the Red Hill fuel tanks, and clearly illustrates that only option the Navy has is to defuel, decommission, and #ShutDownRedHill for good.
