On April 13th I got an email from a stranger, @FayadMulla
He was on Lesbos & had footage from 2 days prior showing migrants getting rounded up on land & ditched in the Aegean by the coast guard
Did I want to see it?
If you think the answer was an easy "yes," you're wrong.

Love this whole thread. Nothing crazy radical. Just small effective changes making a big impact.

[Suzy Lee @hellosuzylee]

Into it.

Let’s👏Find👏Solutions👏.

But also, let’s elect politicians who will actually make the moves to implement solutions. 📥

. @AndrewYang won this year's American Democracy Leader Award for his work building energy and support for #RankedChoiceVoting across the country. Here's why he cares about the movement

Yeah this time is gonna be different. This is in front of the NRA convention in Houston.

17. The second is the fact that we are in the midst of a pandemic that has killed more than 1 million Americans. The mockery of mask wearing is connected to a broader public narrative that denies the current reality.

[The Kyiv Independent @KyivIndependent]

⚡️ Mariupol authorities estimate that about 160,000 people are left in besieged Mariupol, out of the pre-war population of over 400,000.

All of them need to be evacuated from the city due to the deepening humanitarian crisis, Mariupol Mayor Vadym Boychenko said on March 28.

Listening to Zelensky's interview with the last remaining independent Russian media outlets and I'm struck by how insane it is to paint this man as some kind of Russophobe. He speaks Russian with such comfort and speed. It is his mother tongue.

This beautiful couple Dmytro and Iryna died yesterday when they defended Kyiv from Russians. #StandWithUkriane

[Volodymyr Yermolenko @yermolenko_v]

my friend was killed today, Iryna Tsvila. Incredibly brave and kind person. Went through Donbas war as volunteer. Joined territorial defence now. We've made a book recently, "Voices of War. Stories of Veterans", she among authors. Wrote about her rose garden. Look at this smile

First 🇺🇦 citizens arrive in 🇲🇩, with over 4000 crossings today. The govt has deployed temporary placement centers near Palanca and Ocnița. Our borders are open for 🇺🇦 citizens who need safe transit or stay.

On #WorldNTDDay we are very proud to have @SesameWorkshop’s Global Health Ambassador Raya sharing the important message that NTDs are preventable and treatable! If we are #100PercentCommitted, we can end NTDs and create healthier futures for all. https://t.co/jUyXEuSezq

I started finding these sweet notes all over the house. On my pillow. In the fridge. On the dining table. Turns out my son is learning how to write and this is how he practices. I’m going to save these forever.

[Suzy Lee @hellosuzylee]

@austinflack Could I recommend @MSF_USA? They are very firmly established in both of these countries and have the teams on ground already and work with a lot of local staff. If you go on their website and look up their work by countries you can see how they’ve been operating in each.

[Julie Roginsky @julieroginsky]

I get it now. Ted and Heidi Cruz wanted their children to be safe, to have basic sanitary services like heat and running water, to leave behind a third-world apocalyptic nightmare for a safer place. Like so many parents before them, they decided to cross the Mexican border.

[Suzy Lee @hellosuzylee]

The apocalypse monsters have arrived. 😱🥶

@mikeyburton It’s too real.

[Nadja Drost @nadjadrost]

I just had an incredible encounter. Our doorbell rang, so I opened the window to look below to the front stoop.
When I saw a man delivering food, I called out to him, letting him know it must be for our neighbors downstairs. This, so far, is normal.
