1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

yeah idk I think the side of history I want to be on is the side that's got Pedro Pascal there dancing

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Still deeply unsettled by the A.I., GLP-1, and MAHA commercials 🙃 what incredibly dumb times these are!

Get this: it turns out Mike Tyson is ill informed about public health

Watching Our Oceans on netflix and my gods Barack Obama's voice is so soothing 🥺

Someone said patriarchy left unchecked is p3dophilia, and I can't get it out of my head

Good morning. It's Monday. FUCK ICE today and everyday 🖕🧊🖕

The best way to honor Charlie's memory is to continue his work - Gavin Newsom

Charlie Kirk was practicing politics the right way - Ezra Klein

white liberals are so embarrassing

It is entirely possible to be respectful about the death of a person you disagreed with without “honoring” him by vowing to continue his disagreeable, hateful “work.”

I'll be presenting about DTSC's work on EJ in AA during this free GC&E Friday webinar this week! Great lineup of women working in alternatives assessment! #greenchemistry event.on24.com/wcc/r/496064...

This quiet decision will cost babies’ lives.

We need noise. Fast. Here’s what to do ➡️🧵(1/3)

High schoolers gain experience through hands-on experiments at Sacramento State A groundbreaking outreach program is giving high school students a unique opportunity to gain real-life science experience while learning about environmental protection and STEM careers.

I had a blast working with the talented students of Oakland Tech this week thru DTSC's toxic crusaders program (can you peep me in one of the photos? 👀)

Thank you Assemblymembers Ward, Ortega, and Quirk-Silva for standing with state workers and scrutinizing the unknown and unnecessary costs of the 4-day RTO order ✊
@asmchrisward.bsky.social @asmlizortega.bsky.social

How does asking thousands of state workers to commute to an office 4 days a week align with California's climate goals, Governor?

This right here is a person who punches down ⬇️ Newsom doesn't stand for anything but his own desire for more power. Get fucked Gavin.

Gov Newsom issued a new RTO mandate of 4 days in office for state employees, a slap in the face to all CA civil servants, particularly working parents, and a huge blow to California's climate goals 👎🏻

As he eyes a presidential run, I hope you all remember that
@governor.ca.gov is anti-worker ❌

Remember when NIH got an increase in funding during the first admin? What a time

Well, even cowgirls get the blues

WHAT THE LITERAL FUCK

I am skeptical about the effectiveness of the COVID tests I have at home. In the absence of CDC comms, does anyone have any useful info to share about home tests in light of current surges?
