@SanDiegoAirport lines at 5am this morning 😱

Most of the city was still asleep. @TSA workers were already at work. First ones in. Last ones thanked.

Thank you to the TSA team who showed up today.

The Maui wildfires did not only destroy homes. They also left deep mental health impacts across the island. Our new JAMA Psychiatry paper shows that depression, anxiety, displacement, and income loss are all part of the recovery story. #MauiWES #MentalHealth @UHEROnews @uhmanoacss @uhmedjabsom

A cross-sectional study of adults affected by the 2023 Maui wildfires demonstrated that wildfire exposure was associated with higher rates of #depression and #anxiety compared to unexposed individuals, with risk extending beyond burn zones.

It will take all of us coming together and doing what we can to help those in need in Maui and Lāhainā right now. I hope you’ll join me in donating to the Hawai'i Red Cross today: https://t.co/CPtVJ8fGSq

@jmwooldridge It’s a scam for some tourist who prefer to know how much they’re spending in the currency they know. It’s a Pareto dominated choice to take the local currency, which is priced at current exchange rates.
