Experts say now is an ideal time to get a flu shot, before influenza starts spreading widely. It's also a good time for vulnerable people to get vaccinated against another winter risk, RSV, and to get up to date on protection against COVID-19.

Measles outbreaks could leave thousands vulnerable to infectious diseases for years. Those who survive measles experience immune amnesia and an increased susceptibility to infections. I spoke to the reporter for this article as one of the many experts interviewed. www.cidrap.umn.edu/measles/meas...

I told a school I worked in that they should not use images of children on their website or socials. A senior leader told me “oh the NCA is saying the same thing as you, funny!” They left the images up because the ADULTS ARE THE PROBLEM ONLINE

When I was a grad student TA at Cornell, a student said to me, "My dad didn't pay for me to come here just so I'd get a C" then stared at me as if that should have been enough for me to change his grade (I did not, nor did the prof when he appealed). Cornell fosters a moral bankruptcy and can rot.

l've been a SA advocate for decades:
NEVER go to campus resources for a SA. Call a rape care hotline/program (off campus), get a SA advocate (they're free), go to a SART hospital for care (and evidence collection if you choose).
They activate the police. Schools have NO business in this process and will minimize and bury it. It's a criminal matter, not an administrative matter.
Period. No exceptions.

I read elsewhere that often a 911 call from a location deemed "on campus" will automatically connect with Campus Police 🙄. It's awful that students need to learn this, but DO NOT rely on campus "resources" (sic). Instead, the guidance below seems sound: bsky.app/profile/schu...

14. Meanwhile, in Massachusetts, anti-trans politics just cost Seth Moulton his career, and come January, he’ll be out of the House. More likely than not, he’ll be remembered for one thing and one thing only: when his rhetoric mattered most, he didn’t hesitate to throw trans kids under the bus.

13. And she’s right. In Iowa and Ohio, a number of Democrats have taken anti-trans positions in recent months, including gov. nominees Rob Sand and Amy Acton as well as Iowa House nominee Sarah Trone Garriott. Some strategists have argued that Democrats need to take these positions in order to win.

12. “Anti-trans politics lost," she said. "Mass. rejected the idea that attacking trans people is a shortcut to political power. Voters chose a different path: one where equality is not negotiable, cruelty is not courage, and transgender people do not have to disappear for Democrats to succeed.”

11. Speaking to Transitics on Markey’s win, Tyler Hack, the executive director of pro-trans PAC Christopher Street Project, which endorsed Markey, Tyler Hack celebrated Moulton’s loss as a loss for anti-trans Democrats nationwide.

10. Despite his apologies, to Massachusetts Democrats, his rhetoric as a policymaker mattered. On Tuesday, Markey overwhelmingly defeated Moulton. The race was called 28 minutes after polls closed with only 2% of the votes counted. As of right now, Markey leads by a margin of 71%-29%.

9. Seeing the writing on the wall, Moulton eventually tried to fully walk back his 2024 remarks. “To anyone hurt by my comments, I’m sorry because that was not my intention,” he said at the August debate. “My intention was to say that we need to take on these issues.”

8. Then Markey went on the offensive: “Moulton decided that he was gonna throw trans kids under the bus, the political bus, and blame them for the loss of the 2024 election,” he said at their July debate, “those kids are vulnerable. Those kids need love. Those kids don’t need to be scapegoated.”

7. Early that November, it was revealed he only rebuked AIPAC after they refused to guarantee that they’d endorse his campaign. Despite Markey’s age—79—and generational change being the focal points of his campaign, by the end of the year, polls consistently found Moulton trailing by over 20 points.

6. The contrast couldn’t have been sharper: Markey, draped in a transgender pride flag, spoke about the importance of fighting for trans rights; when Moulton took the stage, the crowd responded by booing him. His standing among Massachusetts’ notably progressive electorate would never recover.

5. Those comments would soon come back to bite him. In October 2025, he announced he was challenging incumbent MA Senator Ed Markey, an outspoken trans ally, for his seat. Just a few days after his campaign launched, on October 18th, Markey and Moulton both appeared at the No Kings Rally in Boston.

3. But the next year, Moulton changed his tune: “I have two little girls,” he told the New York Times just 2 days after the election, “I don’t want them getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete, but as a Democrat I’m supposed to be afraid to say that.”

2. Moulton used to claim he was a trans ally. Co-sponsoring the Equality Act as well as the Transgender Bill of Rights, he stated in 2023 that anti-trans sports bills as "a broader Republican attack on the rights of transgender people." Above all, “our rhetoric as policymakers matters,” he said.

1. Anti-trans Democrat Seth Moulton just lost his Senate primary in a LANDSLIDE to outspoken trans ally Ed Markey. To Moulton, trans kids were a liability the Democratic Party needed to abandon. But to Massachusetts voters, the only liabilities are Democrats like him.
