My REAL question is when are we going to put Ryan Gosling and James Marsden in a bonafide musical again (preferably directed/choreographed by Kenny Ortega)

A few reminders as we head into Thanksgiving:
-Don't comment on someone's body, even if it looks different than the last time you saw it.
-Don't comment on someone's food choices. Those are inside thoughts.
-Don't assign moral value to food. You don't need to "earn" pie.

Hey, uh, don't kick the accessibility buttons that open doors for people. People have to touch those and they don't know where you shoe has been.

I am an Israeli Jew. This is probably the worst week of my life. And yet today of all days it bears repeating: the only way to end this cycle is by working for freedom and dignity for all. For all. On all sides, our blood is the same color and our tears taste the same.

Your brand has taken a hit with the public @DanaherCorp and @CepheidNews but there's still time to be the hero. Make the right choice, recognize it's #Timefor5 & put #PeopleOverProfits and you will be rewarded.
Turned on @wxpnfm to find out they had just played the 1st side of Nebraska & I had missed my favorite Bruce song, Atlantic City, only for them to then play 3 covers in a row by The Hold Steady, Aoife O'Donovan, and ending with my favorite The Band. This is why XPN is the best.

impossible to tell who to support when one side would lose their homes and the other would be totally fine and still very wealthy
The studios and streamers' plan is to reportedly 'break the WGA'
“The endgame is to allow things to drag on until union members start losing their apartments and losing their houses"

An open letter to @JNJNews. Stop pursuing the secondary patent of bedaquiline. YOU KNOW that millions of people will be unable to access lifesaving treatment for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis if you extend the patent. YOU KNOW it violates your credo. youtube.com/watch?v=tMhgw5SW…

Today my brother made a video about how the patent on a drug for Tuberculosis should be expiring, but that Johnson and Johnson is extending with a legal loophole for four extra years.
As a result, experts estimate that six million people will die.

Hey, so we're coming to the end of Day One for the poor admin of @JNJNews. Please let your bosses know that hundreds of thousands of people are horrified and disgusted by J&J's attempt to extend their monopoly on bedaquiline, a critical tuberculosis drug.
SIX MILLION people who need to access bedaquiline will be unable to do so over the next four years unless J&J backs down. I wish I could tell the @JNJGlobalHealth admin that tomorrow will be better. But actually it will be worse. The pressure will grow.

In 1959, police were called to a segregated library when a Black 9-year-old boy trying to check out books refused to leave, after being told the library was not for Black people.
The boy, Ronald McNair, went on to became an astronaut. The library is also now named after him.

CNN’s @janegreenway and @kirsigoldynia speak with @v_solesmith about the Ozempic craze. Says Sole-Smith: “We've been pathologizing fat bodies for decades now, and we're seeing the harm of that” cnn.com/2023/06/07/opinions/…
I also agree! A must for anyone who interacts with kids but also a great read to help deprogram messaging you yourself received being enmeshed in diet culture. It helped me process the hurts inflicted upon me as well as forgive ppl who thought they were 'helping' the not-thin kid

When you get burned out by New York and see the promised land of New Jersey across the Hudson.
I just read this book and highly recommend it to everyone. As a kid I was larger than my siblings and am honestly shocked I made in through my teenage years without an eating disorder. Protect all kids and that includes the fat kids!
