Today is World IVF Day, and I want to share with you our daughter’s first ever photo💜 This was our one and only embryo, and we are going to meet her in September. This process is heartbreaking and impossibly beautiful and hopeful. I want everyone to have the access and choices that we did.

The other day I was teaching about music as torture and showed images from Abu Ghraib. My students-too young or not born at the time-were shocked that this happened. A reminder that one day we will all have to answer for the atrocities of our fellow Americans who were “just following orders.”

When we talk about this golden age of television (Severance, Paradise, The Pitt, White Lotus) don’t forget about Extraction on FOX, where loved ones watch on screens as their “survivalist” friend/family member drinks dirty lake water and do nothing to intervene.

RFK Jr. wants to overly simplify the root causes of chronic disease. He ignores complex relationships with social determinants of health like access to healthcare, education, and being paid a living wage. Republicans don’t want to talk about these things because they’re “woke”.

Screenshot from article that says: Jacobs said Kennedy wants to oversimplify extremely complex relationships between health exposure and chronic disease with blockbuster claims tying vaccines or food additives to illnesses, but that's not how research works. Many factors combine to cause chronic disease, including problems Republicans in Congress do not want to fix, such as underfunded public health departments and persistent air and water pollution.

Authoritarians in countries backsliding away from democracy learned not to cancel elections. Instead, they abuse state power to give themselves unfair advantages in elections, then cite their “victory” as a source of legitimacy. US is not really at risk of no elections. The risk is unfair ones.

Major news! A court in Montana has just declared SB458, a bill that "defines sex" in a way that ends the legal recognition of transgender people in Montana, as facially unconstitutional. This is the first time a bill defining sex has been ruled on! Huge win for trans people in MT!

They are not simply arguing that minorities should be excluded from public life and positions of access, equal opportunity, & power. They are arguing that the United States should no longer be democratic for *anyone* not even the hetcis white men. They are arguing against checks and balances too.
