If you care about keeping the Academy of Natural Sciences open to the public in Philadelphia, I need you to read and share this thread. Trish Wellenbach was sent from the mayor's office to oversee the Academy of Natural sciences situation. She needs to hear from us. Here comes the action item:

“When I was in kindergarten in 1961, I survived a near-fatal case of measles… my clearest memory of that period is my father carrying me to our station wagon & rushing me to the hospital. I stayed for a month, part of it in a coma, my blood pressure dangerously unstable” @jackiantonovich.bsky.social

Measles almost killed me. Now I’m a doctor — and I'm scared of what's happening

Jewel Mullen was in kindergarten in 1961 when she almost died from measles. Now a physician, measles’ return frightens her.

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

Ohio’s only national forest is being opened back up to fracking. The federal government just leased oil and gas rights beneath nearly 2,800 acres of Wayne National Forest for about $11 million, the first competitive lease sale there since 2017.

Half the country thinks all democrats are radical lunatics. I don’t care what that half thinks. Under no circumstances are they going to vote democrat. What matters is finding a candidate who can excite and motivate the OTHER half, and MidBoy McModerate ain’t going to work this time.

It’s fucking intolerable that the Secretary of Health and Human Services in the United States of America is a science-denying anti-vaxxer. It’s a disgrace that another unvaccinated person has just died of measles. Her life mattered.

The ultra-wealthy keep trying to pit the rest of us against each other with scare tactics ("communists!" "men in the ladies room!!" "brown people!!!" "drag queens!!!!") to keep us from noticing that our real problem is THEM. They want us to fight *any* war—except a class war. Happy Labor Day.

The right-wing organizing around the Lindsay Clancy trial is growing and it’s frightening. A lot of people overlook these culture wars revolving around women’s issues, because, well, they’re women’s issues. But the right doesn’t. It’s how they regained such a massive cultural foothold.

The U.S. now has more measles cases than we’ve seen in 35+ years. Measles didn’t suddenly become harder to prevent. What changed is our relationship with vaccines, public health and expertise. Diseases we once had largely under control can come back.

When I was 13 I was put on continuous birth control to treat heavy painful periods. I was later subjected to increasingly strong hormone therapies that wrecked my mental health. By 19 I was begging doctors to just remove my uterus. I was told to “just get pregnant” instead 🧵

I will forever admire Wendell Berry's insistence on living his values through to their natural conclusions and relentlessly ripping through layers of politeness and habit to hold up for judgment those who do not.

market and global trade? Please
name your preferred poisons.

For the sake of goodness, how much

Fill in the following blanks
with the names of your favorite
evils and acts of hatred.

What sacrifices are you prepared
to make for culture and civilization?
Please list the monuments, shrines,
and works of art you would
most willingly destroy

In the name of patriotism and
the flag, how much of our beloved
land are you willing to desecrate?
List in the following spaces
the mountains, rivers, towns, farms
you could most readily do without.

State briefly the ideas, ideals, or hopes,
the energy sources, the kinds of security;
for which you would kill a child.
