Me and @hankgreen 4 years ago in Denver vs me and Hank tonight in NYC: a glowup #AART (I still look full of nervous excitement, so some things never change)

@FedExHelp y'all seriously aren't gonna do anything about the fact that YOU delivered my package to the wrong address? The picture you gave is clearly not my apartment lobby

@cmbc_podcast per Would You Rather: the correct answer to argue for Tom Felton's hot dog cart is that he could get advice from Rupert Grint, ice cream truck entrepreneur, and tbh they would probably run it together, which would be very cute

3+ years into a pandemic, the general public is still generally confused about what to do when they test positive for COVID19. So let me walk you through what I, an infectious disease epidemiologist public health nurse, am doing since I tested positive on a rapid antigen today.

This round of layoffs in particular it feels clear that this isn't about a recession or profit or even worker quality. It's about fear induction. Lay off a bunch of people, and you grab a bit of power back out of the fear among the remaining. It is easier to exploit them.

Yesterday I reassured someone that "taking turns" w orgasm during partnered sex is REALLY NORMAL & something many people (& nearly all queers) do. The myth of the simultaneous hetero orgasm has ruined us!!! It's not awkward or unsexy to take turns making sure we're all satisfied.

Police be like “I see clear evidence you’re being harassed and stalked but we can’t do shit until the person actually attempts to kill you so wait for that and if you survive give us a call”

I love public libraries because they are built on the principle that books are so important and so necessary to human flourishing that access to them cannot depend on your income.

A woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK. Giving a huge platform to a man to fantasise about violence against a woman he wants to “parade naked through the streets” dangerously legitimises the violent thoughts of men all over the country.

Yes, the calendar says it's the International Day of People with Disabilities. But the more than one billion disabled people who exist in this world are worthy of access and inclusion today. And tomorrow. And next week. And all month. And next year. Always. #IDPWD2022

Passive suicidal ideation is so common in trauma survivors that many don't bother to even mention it when they're being assessed-- it's just always there. It becomes like the barely noticeable background music in a TV show.

Musk firing a bunch of people on H1Bs the day before thanksgiving when absolutely no one will be doing interviews for the next week is another one of those cruelties that just show who he is

After yesterday's performance, we've had such a massive outpouring of love and support from people all around the world and we cannot thank you enough. Our band members are thrilled that the performance meant so much to so many. Happy Thanksgiving!

@gamebits @teggas Very thankful for you and our friendship ❤️ So excited to spend PAX East 2023 with you

“The most important message for our band (@queerbac) being in this parade is visibility for our queer community, especially for all of those little kids that are in places where they don’t feel accepted or like they belong. There is a place for them”

@tessmhanson @Macys Awww thanks lovely! Happy Thanksgiving!

if you watch the @Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade look for The Queer Big Apple Corps! My sorority mom @HeleneUtterback is a member (& swiftie) and is AMAZING! They have a little fundraiser going and they’ve almost reached their goal of $200. Pls consider! pages.donately.com/qbac/fundraise…

UPDATE: The Administration is extending the pause on federal student loan repayments to allow for the Supreme Court to rule in the case on the student debt relief program. The pause will end no later than June 30, 2023. Payments will resume 60 days after the pause ends.

HarperCollins has just informed its employees that they're feeling the pain of our strike and missing their striking workers—by expediting requests for temp hires. Guess our labor truly is necessary 🤷#hcponstrike
