As we see ANOTHER huge drop in the cost of curing tuberculosis, I am reminded that 1. drugs are not expensive because they're made of platinum or something, and 2. the fruits of activism are often harvested over many years. Thanks to all the folks who made this happen. www.stoptb.org/news/breakin...

At least there are trees. When I was younger, I thought trees were a big stupid waste of time except insofar as they provide us with oxygen. Now, when I am sad and on the edge of something worse than sad, I think, "At least there are trees."

Experts estimate USAID cuts are leading to 88 deaths PER HOUR. A UN office called these “the deepest funding cuts ever to hit the international humanitarian sector.” If funding isn't resumed, they estimate an additional 10 million cases & 2 million preventable deaths by 2030: tb.impactcounter.com

Hearing from Community Partners International, which works from Myanmar to Bangladesh, that USAID cuts mean 14,000 people with HIV losing access to lifesaving meds and a total stop in all HIV and TB screening. So many people will die due to these chaotic, sudden, horrifically implemented cuts.

I don’t process acronyms well. I’m a pretty literal person, so that’s part of it. Also, a lot of meaning gets lost when things are abbreviated. Prime example: DEI. Instead of saying “DEI”, we should say the entire phrase, Divisity, Equity and Inclusion. Doing that…clarifies things.

Hopefully this judgement will be honored by the Trump administration and aid will begin to flow again. It's worth repeating: The President of the U.S. does not decide where or how our tax money is spent. That is Congress's job. That's why Trump keeps losing in court. apnews.com/article/usai...
