Just because good news is worth celebrating:

There is now a Prep medication that is an *every six month* injection.

Shared this on insta & will share here too. If you’re not in the ME or Long Covid communities you’re likely unaware of just how often we have to watch young people die.

Seeing the NYT switch to active voice feels like watching a seal holding back the apocalypse crack
years and years of avoiding plain language and the active voice do make the choice to use it more impactful, I suppose

Here in Minneapolis our teachers and principals are recommending parents bring chemical respirators when picking up their little ones from school.

This is because Federal agents have been deploying tear gas and pepper spray while parents are picking up their little ones from school.

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.

Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

One thing about Minnesotans is we view cold as a challenge. 40 below wind chill? The hell I won’t!
Before I came, I asked a local friend if the cold (it's going to be -20 or so in the coming days) would stop people from coming out. "No, we'll be there. It's ICE who can't handle it."

Remember: if you’re cold, they’re cold. Be sure to kick them the fuck out of their hotels.

may Minneapolis reveal what people can do to keep each other safe from violence, and expose the lie that police work does the same thing. the violence is the police; safety is everyday acts like this:
But when I asked an organizer what they wanted to see out of press coverage, they told me they wanted people to see the beautiful things they are building here, and not just the worst stories of the worst of ICE's crimes.

What people are doing here is beautiful. It's a tragic beauty, but a real one

This is Minneapolis:

You get up early to take a yoga class. Multiple people are wearing whistles.

The instructor references “winter warriors” during the session and closes with “thank you for the work you are all doing out there.”
This is Minneapolis:

You watch a community member take the coat off their own back to give to a vulnerable neighbor in negative six degree temps.

It feels both ordinary and not.
This is Minneapolis:

You sit on a bench in 3 degree weather with a community member and listen to them talk about delivering 18 pizzas from a local immigrant owned business to other community members in need.

Their car filled with steam.

They have been doing crowdfunded aide for over a week.

Holiday gathering reminder 🎁

If your guests test w/rapids twice before the event, 48 hours apart, it’ll catch 63% of Covid cases even if they have no symptoms. Testing 3x improves that to 79%!

This is how we curb the annual January surge that gave me Long Covid—thanks for protecting yr community 🤍

If you're the parent of a trans kid, it is now your responsibility to find out how to obtain HRT for your child. You didn't sign up to be a criminal, but when the state criminalizes your child, it's your job to stand up and put yourself on the line for them

who possibly could have seen this coming - a mass-disabling event costs more than just cooling our damned jets for a bit and figuring this shit out?
being disabled is more expensive than masking and air filters? WHO KNEW?

It is Luddite, in the true meaning of the term.

The luddites were a distributed, organized revolutionary movement targeting the use of automation by capitalists to exploit and displace skilled workers.

They weren’t just grumpy about technology
It feels Luddite to say this, but probably the boldest thing a news org can do is have a really draconian policy about AI as a signal to the public. Not anti-tech, but rather to apply journalistic skepticism about the tool itself. Social contract: We won't use this unless it makes the news better.

Trans women can no longer attend:
- Columbia University in New York
- Harvard University in Massachusetts
- Brown University in Rhode Island

And they tell us we'll be safe in blue states. And they tell us it's not a pogrom.
Brown University is caving to Trump.

They are banning trans women from female bathrooms, dorms, locker rooms, and sports across campus. They're also cracking down on trans care for minors, though that is unlikely to be broadly impactful since it's a university.
