I am spilling my pain everywhere - my family, my friends, strangers, here, but it is an unimaginable endless ocean of pain. I don’t think I’ll be back here for a while if ever. I hope none of you ever experience anything like this

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing. And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

The inaugural year of #HCWvsHunger was won by #BladesNBougies, a collaboration of anesthesiologists & surgeons in the name of feeding people. Where are my surgeons & anesthesiologists this year?! @msharifpourmd.bsky.social @chadybontv.bsky.social @glaucomflecken.bsky.social @datadrivenmd.social

I am part of a private ob-gyn group. We provide medical and surgical termination services. The surgical terminations are done with either in office moderate sedation or nitrous oxide. This is how it should be everywhere. Ob-gyns need to step the hell up

This is why all general ob-gyn offices should offer medical and surgical pregnancy termination. Consolidating this service to an easily identifiable target limits access in this completely off the rails whackadoo country

The real poverty line is around $140k for a family of four, but it’s perversely hard to get there: “Every dollar you earn climbing from $40,000 to $100,000 triggers benefit losses that exceed your income gains. You are literally poorer for working harder.”

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city. We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.
