Good morning to feminists only.

Hey @duolingo why tf am I now doing math instead of learning Catalan

[dorian is drafting! @dywwrites]

As someone who has firsthand witnessed the way zionist indoctrination is used to radicalize Jews against Palestine, I wanted to make a 🧵 of things that helped me unlearn what I had been taught to hopefully help people deprogram themselves or their loved ones

[Lily Shield @lilyshield]

absolutely the best, @amylittlefield!

[Renee Bracey Sherman @RBraceySherman]

I believe @amylittlefield is one of the best journalists reporting on abortion. She always looks at our movement's complicated questions and examines who gets left behind as we move forward. Read her newest piece on the state strategy for @thenation!

@GrimKim Ron DeSantis takes the stage, notes the protests outside, calls “mama bears” “the most powerful political force in this country.” Polite giggles when DeSantis talks about what he will do as next president. Not even his fans seem to think that’s happening.

Opinion | I am a child of a prominent family who didn’t do that well in high-school. Here’s why Princeton was right to admit me.

While we're talking affirmative action, 43% of white students admitted to Harvard in 2019 were legacies, athletes or related to staff/donors.

[Michael Harriot @michaelharriot]

Before you begin your thinkpiece, the Supreme Court DID NOT strike down Affirmative Action

Admission preferences for legacies, donors, employee families and special recommendations are still allowed

The Court struck down Affirmative Action For everyone except WHITE PEOPLE

As a reminder, the side in this fight that has a history of murdering medical providers in their homes and churches and that tried to blow up the Atlanta Olympics is the anti-abortion side. These people’s friends stalk us, harass us, and violently attack the clinics where we work

[Mo Weeks @mo87mo87]

I think about billionaires a lot (kinda my job?) so let me say this:

Most every billionaire on the planet would happily kill you for an extra few points on their investment. This isn't theoretical, it literally happens. They literally make decisions they know will kill people.

Proud of the work my sibling @Shield75 is doing to improve indoor air quality and teach the next generation!

[S Shield @Shield75]

I was privileged to work w/5th graders from Samara Community School in the Bronx, the public school my daughter attends, as part of their culminating activist project about lung health. They invited me to teach the students how to build #corsirosenthalbox es to clean indoor air.

Nurses STOP CALLING THE COPS ON PATIENTS

[Robert Oubre, MD | The Doctor of Documentation @Dr_Oubre]

The pendulum has swung too far.

Penalizing falls in the hospital has resulted in patients who aren’t allowed to get out of bed.

They get weaker, depressed, constipated, pressure ulcers and ultimately need SNF placement.

Ambulation should be viewed as a key to healing.

@amylittlefield SENDING STRENGTH

@sirosenbaum @katebornstein Renee Rose in those days ☺️

[Lily Shield @lilyshield]

@sirosenbaum And the first time that’s ever felt not pathetic 😅

[Lily Shield @lilyshield]

@sirosenbaum Quiet.

my toddler lets us know when he has to poop by helpfully telling us "no caca, no caca" and anyway it's like this tweet

My "Not involved in human trafficking" T-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt.
