Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will direct federal health agencies to explore potential new treatments for measles as the U.S. faces its largest outbreak in 25 years. Experts fear the decision could have grave consequences, as studies show the existing vaccine is 97% effective in preventing infection.
RFK Jr. Orders Search for New Measles Treatments Instead of Urging Vaccination
Decades of research have turned up no miracle treatment for measles, but studies show the M.M.R. shot is 97 percent effective in preventing the disease.

When the headlines echo the book project you’ve just completed writing, I think that’s called synchronicity, or maybe history repeating itself. #wip #onsubmission #lgbtqauthors

The monuments of hate and fear might be toppling, but the ugly specter of white supremacy is still horrifyingly present. Look no further than our current administration. Weathersby is a beautiful lyric writer. This is a book that must be read. #inopencontempt

I’m trying and failing to find the balance between head in the sand and outrage. Every day I wake up and wonder what new fresh hell will come. Any words of wisdom?

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Just heard The Village People are set to perform at Trump’s inauguration.

At this point, perhaps they should rename themselves “The Villages People.”

Two years ago today my heart stopped beating. Honestly , I wondered if it was all over. Lights out. Heart put on ice. I dreamt of my childhood home on Latham Road. And then I woke up, tube in my throat, two smiling faces. I was so thankful to be alive. I still am. I hold onto that gratitude.
