• Way better public messaging about prevention
• More long covid research
• Indoor air quality & ventilation standards
• Mask mandates in high-risk places (health care e.g.)

If you don’t have an animal I can talk to, I’m not coming to your party.

Really important to note that Andy Beshear VETOED an anti-trans bill, the legislature overrode it, and Daniel Cameron is defending it in court.

Kentucky Activists Step In to Deliver on the Promise of Voting Rights Restoration After the governor restored hundreds of thousands of people’s rights in 2019, a coalition led by formerly incarcerated Kentuckians is working to inform people of their rights.

Kentucky's gov in 2019 restored voting rights of more than 200K people, with one stroke of pen. But the state has done little since to reach out & inform them.

Formerly incarcerated Kentuckians have stepped up to fill the void, & organize.

ESPN Fantasy Football app report on Travis Kelce, citing the presence of Kelce’s gf (Taylor Swift) as a contributing factor to his success

no, someone else in my league drafted him. even ESPN is giving into the hype, though. 🤦🏻‍♀️
