America, and probably the world, stands on a precipice. Call you Congresspeople, right now.

The most urgent plea I have ever written. Please read and share.

Once upon a time he did take the ethical, logical, public health position against the carcinogen glyphosate - his old self must be turning over in its grave.

To hear glyphosate, we are also hearing the complete moral disintegration of RFK Jr. May his past self rest in peace at this soul deadening pivot. Remember what he used to do, legally? (besides snorting drugs)

As someone who lives in NYC, no one moves to Manhattan based on taxes, I am pretty sure.

All My Relatives: Answering Senator Chris Murphy's Question And the History Behind β€œWhite Culture”

Essential reading, from @juliefrancella.com today. In meditation this morning, I saw being in the US as like being disgraced, culturally impoverished relatives of our ancestors from locations all around the world who still have their own cultures intact... juliefrancella.substack.com/p/all-my-rel...

In German too, bis spater, and in Spanish, hasta luego... all intending to see one another again - showing connections.

No understanding of the meaning of the words he uses or the actual history he's referring too, what a strange and ignorant person he seems to be.

My adopted house rabbits from the ACC-NYC shelter are, in fact feisty, at times. They "punch" with front paws when guarding their territory, and also bite when I'm in the way. Other than that, quite cuddly and very cute.πŸ‡

Maxi an adopted house rabbit in NYC, and beloved, on V-day.

Happy Valentine's Day, whomever you love, may they be close to you today. I know, I fall in love much too easily... I'm ok with that. The picture is my current crush, Maxi, this morning, my adopted house bunny from the Harlem shelter, ACCNY. #V-day #rabbits

Typically the dominant narcisist in an abusive partnership would say that, but it does not engender love.

Yes, it's a dreadful US policy shift to bar people from voting freely, harming not only democrat but also independent or republican voters alike. Anyone who doesn't foresee that they might have needed a passport or birth certificate to vote... because, who knew? Generations of voters didn't.

I wonder how many of us remember those school photo days, alone in that dark room, the light, the creepy photographer. Not surprised...

Justice. Climate justice, so critical to begin and support.

A real irony is that many in the US, born here, who never travel abroad and never plan to, don't get passports. Lots of us with generations of people living in the same relative US area just don't even think about getting a passport, or finding our birth certificate, either. Who knew we'd need it?

On what could go wrong, the areas with access to mRNA vaccine advances with have better health outcomes than the US most likely... something to open our eyes to in the US as we prepare to vote, and each time we consciously choose where to spend our money.

We + our children have a right to see (open our eyes), hear (uncensored), and freely awaken to nature's truths around us, which is what science shows (in research), and how biology lives, (in health outcomes). Please, #standupforscience because we have the right to know what's going on here. #momsky

So true, at times as a scientist I did say things like this, kind of just slipped out there, to my own kids. They did not like it.

Lovely, I go for "rose" colored pink every time. Red, well, it does remind me of blood and seems unpleasant.

A predator tactic in Nature, convince the victim's mind that they are not in danger as you simultaneously kill and devour them. Luckily, we have free thought, for the most part, during waking hours.

When even baby doctors have a visible revolution, you understand the govt is epically failing the people it was established to represent and protect.

Mother Nature's laws, those of physics, biology, are not overruled ... ignored, denied, yes. A wave of the political hand will not protect our health nor health of loved ones and future generations from changes in the natural world.
