@ActingPolitical

Theater is a political act & every political act is theater. I strive to make sense of the two, whether as a spectator or participant. (AKA an angry activist)

I AM ALS
I AM ALS@iamalsorg·
We are grieving the passing of Leah Stavenhagen, a true changemaker, I AM ALS community member, and founder of Her ALS Story. Leah’s legacy lives on in those she connected and the perceptions she shattered. We're grateful for her brilliance, her advocacy, and her heart.

We are heartbroken by the passing of our friend @RealEricDane, a fierce advocate, a generous spirit, and a true champion in the movement to end ALS. Eric used his platform not for attention, but for action. Read our full statement online: bit.ly/4axamAA

I’m excited to share that I’ve been promoted to Full Professor of Physics at @MIT. This milestone feels especially meaningful: I am the first Iranian woman to hold this position in physics at MIT. I carry my heritage with pride, especially in moments like this. I’m deeply grateful to my students, postdocs, colleagues and mentors. This achievement reflects the community that challenges me, supports me, and elevates the work every day. The work continues: ambitious questions, curiosity-driven science and much still to discover. Onward… to the questions we haven’t yet imagined! Picture: latest Fakhri group meeting

A black person becoming a billionaire is not black excellence. Because what is so "excellent" about exploiting other people to get to an economic status that most people can't ever obtain while we got millions of homeless people in this country? (Now watch the people who are defending beyoncé come into my comments and start demonizing the homeless)

As the Supreme Court is asked this week to reconsider marriage equality, a good time to read @tdylon_jones' masterful profile from earlier this summer of Jim Obergefell, the man behind the case politico.com/news/magazine/…

It has come to this. I must pimp out my books to pay the bills of my unnecessary ventures like hiring a pet psychic or buying walnut flour for my formula. Ok I kind of need the latter. So if you haven't gotten your copy of Where the Sunflower Grows or Pursuit of Happiness just search my name, Mayuri Saxena, on Amazon to see all formats! Thanks for the love!

I did it! Dunnet Head, the northern point of mainland Scotland, bringing to a close a fantastic three month adventure, walking the cardinal points of the country. A fascinating journey of 999.68 miles. 😊

Walking close to 1000 miles has been good for me. You can see I’ve lost weight! I’ve also lost a lot of mental angst weight too! What an incredible experience this has been for me. The first photo is 1st May, Mull of Galloway.

Many disabled people can’t “shop local” We’re housebound and often bedbound. We lack disposable income. We have huge medical and caretaking expenses that wipe out discretionary spending. Instead of shaming us, help us. Take us to the store. Donate to mutual aid. Shop for us.

While Americans slept last night, Senate Republicans moved forward their Big Bad Betrayal Bill, which would: - push millions off health care - make electric bills more expensive - strip food assistance for hungry families All to pay for a tax break for billionaires.
