From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now):

-If you work for ICE.
-If you vote for money for ICE.

You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.

If you have not seen Downtown Boys before (or even if you have!) do yourself a favor and see them whenever you can. I'll be checking out Deep Cuts for the first time.

As a constituent I appreciate the work you are doing, but justice requires accountability. How about co-sponsoring Rep. Kelly's resolution?

There are still a few days left to provide comments on this proposed rule change, which will be harmful to many of our patients and their families. Comments close 12/19 www.regulations.gov/document/USC....

That's why the anticipated Medicaid cuts stemming from the budget bill along with newly added Medicaid eligibility requirements are a huge threat to health centers, particularly those which already may be struggling--often due to serving communities with the highest needs. 2/2

This article is a great intro to the important work of community health centers. One comment I'd make is that it could be read as implying that the majority of FQHC funding comes as federal grants, but the average health center's 330 grant covers only 18% of revenue (KFF 2019). 1/2

Had a great visit to the deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum recently for the first time in many years. If you are in/around Boston it is very much worth checking out, and it is free if you are a member of @thetrustees.bsky.social. Also a great combo with Walden Pond.

She also wouldn't let me just put "Bela Lugosi's Dead" on repeat, but that's a perpetual debate.

When our son was little he labeled sardanas "monster music," so imagine my disappointment when my wife wouldn't allow me to use them for our Halloween soundtrack tonight. youtu.be/_3eHo-dMqIw?...

I was asked last night to provide my opinion on the adequacy of our candy supply (we have a very busy Halloween street). Needless to say, even if we did not originally, we now need to buy more candy.

Updating teaching materials on nutrition today and realized that the myplate.gov website has (in addition to the blatant Hatch Act violation) apparently removed all the Spanish language content/handouts. Figured nutrition is a way of making America healthy. Not if you don't speak English, I guess.
