I’ve been in the HIV education field for 18 yrs. Now I’m looking for a job due to grant cuts. I work on social determinants of health, stigma, access to care for underserved groups etc. I chaired the DEI committee to make sure we practice what we preach. My whole career gone in the blink of an eye.
🤮 so disgusting. I went to college in the 90’s and it most assuredly was NOT to find myself a husband.
Sky9 over the #NoKings protest in Denver. Marchers filled Colfax from Fox St to the Capitol, about eight city blocks long.
FIFA should pull World Cup
OMG. I LOVE this idea.
After a HUGE cut to the federally funded HIV Education Program I’ve worked at for almost 18 years, my position can no longer be supported. (I’m in Colorado)
1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride.
So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels.
They opened the drawbridge to block them.
So they marched to a different bridge.

I'm in CD8. I can not in good conscience support Caraveo in the Primary. Her first term was dissapointing to say the least. She was basically inaccessible to constituents amongst many other concerns I have about her.
If only there were people fleeing places and trying desperately to get into those wealthy countries. That would just be far too simple an idea.
Protest sign that says "We revolted against a tyrannical king once before"
Protest sign that says "We shall fight them in the streets, we shall never surrender "
Protest sign that says "One if by Land, two if by D.C." with pictures of two lit lanterns.
Another Friday night, another evening making protest signs...

Horrifically, I don’t believe they see anyone who is brown or an immigrant as a person.
I flew back from Europe 2 weeks ago. There were so few people going through the non-citizen passport line that it cleared way before the citizen line. They opened it up to citizens to get that line cleared faster. I have NEVER seen the non-citizen line cleared first.

We tried mass tariffs in 1828, and it crashed the economy. We tried again in 1930, and it crashed the economy.
Third time’s the charm, I guess.
I was on a flight from Europe yesterday. There were very very few people on the flight who had to go through the non-citizen line when we landed in the US. It actually cleared faster than the citizen line. I’ve never seen that be the case before.
Many have very specific medical uses. We say men who have sex with men, because there are men married to women, who don’t identify as gay, but still on occasion have sex with men. Which is a risk factor for HIV. “Are you gay?” - no, “Have you had sex with a man?” - yes. You will miss risks. Idiotic
Tesla with a "Felon" sticker on the back.
Saw this today. I like how they picked that specific font. Definitely took some care in how they did this. #teslatakedown
So many questions. Why does the main character look like Musk? Why does anti-trans Trump have bearded belly dancers in the video? What’s with the golden statue reminiscent of a particular commandment in the Bible (& of Saddam Hussein’s statue that was toppled). The whole thing is absolutely insane!
Glad to see our friends at PEPFAR out there on the front lines. HIV funding cuts KILL people.
We need a daily opposition press briefing delivered by someone who can explain how Republicans screwed us over that day, and how to fight back. And it better not be delivered by Jeffries or Schumer who couldn’t motivate someone out of a wet paper bag. Buttigieg comes to mind.
I’m a loyal blue voter and he failed to convince me that they are up to the task at hand. If I can’t be convinced, how on earth are they going to convince the average middle of the road swing voter?
Great tool! And of course this doesn’t even touch the number of people like me that work for federally funded programs through universities or other institutions.
I know there's a lot going on right now, but HIV workers could use your help:
Word from people doing visits to Congress today, Congressional staff need to hear from constituents about proposed funding cuts to Medicare, & how important Ryan White funding is for HIV prevention. Please call! Thanks!
That looks like a pretty standard South African school uniform to be honest. Either gray, khaki, or navy shorts, with a usually white shirt (could also be pale blue, pale yellow, pale green).
Me too! My father was on some government watchlist because he met Steve Biko and moved in the same circles as Donald Woods (the journalist who befriended Biko). Not all us South African expats are racist. Elon is ‘n fokken doos.
1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love.
I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”
Definitely liberal/leftie here, who also happens to qualify for Mensa.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a declassified World War II-era CIA guide to sabotaging fascism in the workplace has become one of the most popular free ebooks on the internet:

A) This isn't over. They are coming for these cuts in their forthcoming budget bill that will also include massive tax breaks for billionaires.
B) Don't forget that they were 100% willing to cause enormous harm to millions of people.
C) Public outcry still matters and can make a difference!
