Remember when you wanted to find the best coffee within walking distance of where you’re at and you googled it? You can apply the same tactic to so many other aspects in life! @nashedgerton @jennaown @VZerbst @bluetonguefilms VOTE YES

If you agree with exceptions warranting abortion, then this is not a “abortion murders human babies” stance. It is a punish the “bad” women stance.

I wrote this little bit about hacks and Ricky Gervais and his bullshit if you’d like to read it https://t.co/iTiV9AbxNp

Hey folks, we’ve taken down our paywall at @SatPaper from now until Saturday so you can read all of our election coverage (& archived coverage) & love it so much that you realise what a good idea it is to subscribe. Or just spend a few days reading. As you wish. You’re welcome!

THREAD: This is significant and the sort of thing that often slips by in the hurly-burly of budget coverage. Substantial cuts to institutions that safeguard human rights, integrity, scrutiny, transparency.

I didn’t know anything about #RutherfordFalls going into it but in one episode I was absolutely hooked.
Here are...several words to convince you not only that it is the funniest show on television right now, but that it is the perfect show for this American moment.

Every bit of this is upsetting, but the fact that the approach for weight in kids is to give them a fitbit and send them to WeightWatchers is absolutely appalling. Basically setting them up for a toxic relationship with food and their bodies for life. https://t.co/h2UhDJJz1w

I just looked up my ballot online and saw it was rejected because of something re my signature. I called and was able to fix it with a series of identity confirming protocols. If you live in a state where you can check on your ballot online please do! I never would have known.

Humalog insulin was $21/vial in 1996 when I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at 14. In 2020, the same unchanged insulin is priced at $275/vial. I die in 48-72 hours without it.

Picked up Defoe’s Journal of the Plague Year. 1665 London. I’d forgotten it was on the shelf. It’s all there. The poor get it worst. Official denial. Epidemic curve. Proven excess mortality. Underreporting. Social distancing, curfews and the best and worst of human responses.

This is incredibly misleading and potentially dangerous rhetoric to be putting out into the public sphere.

"Missing a meal that you normally eat leads to less energy intake" - GrOuNdBrEaKiNg. Telling people on national TV that breakfast makes them fat is inaccurate and unacceptable. Capitalising off the fear of fat during a pandemic to sell his book is unacceptable.

#fatshaming me & assertion that fat people have no place in discussion about public health not only insults me but also all the fat nurses, doctors, ambos etc who give so much. My Polish gran was fat & a nurse & she risked her life to hide Jews from the Nazis #fattiesunite 🙏🏻❤️

And the Australian Government’s expert advisors still don’t believe that aerosol transmission is significant. Even gave a lecture on it to the press.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

People who are actually “cancelled” don’t get their thoughts published and amplified in major outlets.

This has been a public service announcement.
