Hey @UNHCREthiopia, there are reports of mistreatment and denial of entry of #Sudan|ese refugees fleeing conflict, turned away for not having a visa; what are you doing to support them?
ACT NOW.
It will become a more desperate situation as the Egyptian border faces difficulties.

I just received a free gift of personalized correspondence labels from the @arborday foundation and I’ve never felt so old. Last I saw one of these sheets was circa 1997 on the side table with mom’s address book and the chordless phone. Anyhow, it worked. I took the survey.

@limitedpalette @BenjaminJS @KevinTPorter @LAFoodBank Sensory processing disorder and autism are not well understood or frequently diagnosed in women. If @TheEllenShow is on the spectrum or neurodiverse, it would be a great opportunity for the public to learn about those things

“I haven’t seen quality aid in Somalia in 20 years.” Ouch. Thanks ⁦@devex⁩ for another much-needed article on #racism in #aid. https://t.co/wZ0dwyNIuy

@ShannaBTiayon Your essay came to me by way of the @Narratively newsletter. I'm so sorry this happened to you. Thank you for sharing your story. And while I know it can be exhausting to have to educate so many of us on what racism looks like today, I thank you for taking the time to do it.

@devex: "Thousands of development professionals are flying into Brussels for #EuropeanDevelopmentDays — emitting 7,000 metric tons of CO2 between them. That's the equivalent in greenhouse gas emissions of putting an extra 1,500 cars on the road for a year. https://t.co/3F1zmGfm44
