Thank you for the additional info.

The choices that were made.

This fact sheet gives a terrific overview of the benefits of Social Security to keep children out of poverty & retirees out of poverty - it is especially important to minorities & women.

Worth remembering that Social Security was rolled out under the care of Sec. Frances Perkins, the first woman to serve as a cabinet secretary (Labor).

Casting Agent: We need somebody who's basically a capybara. Just a big old human capybara, like kinda round and soft and noble. But, like, a veteran? And they solve crimes. By tricking people who aren't like capybaras at all, but who are mean to them. The kind of people who talk down to capybaras. We need a big old veteran capybara who solves the kind of crimes you'd do if you thought capybaras were stupid. And it's set in Los Angeles.

Peter Falk: Ok, I've got this.

@cmclase That's important information, thank you.

Please boost.

I am starting my thesis research. I am looking for community health centers in a variety of locations, and looking for their websites/FB pages. I am investigating the rhetorics used surrounding trans care, trans bodies, and trans experiences within those community health centers. I am looking at their methods of community engagement with the trans community.

If you are trans (or an ally) who knows about or engages with a community health center in your area, could you please reply here or DM me? I want to cast a wide net for my research, but want to do so by starting with actual trans people in those communities.

To survive
in this imperfect world
we are all of us forced
to make compromises
we wish it was otherwise
alas, it is how it is
and in the moment
even the best option
is rarely good enough
but it is one thing to try
and still have to compromise
and quite another
to just stop trying.

End of a 12 hour day of clinic, including #MentalHealth care for patients who can’t afford private therapy. Then home visits on a snowy night to give immunocompromised patients a booster of bivalent vaccine (#CovidIsNotOver). Family medicine is about relationships. Goodnight.

MENTALLY 👏 ILL 👏 DON'T 👏NEED 👏#BellLetsTalk 👏 WE 👏 NEED 👏 UNIVERSAL 👏 PHARMACARE 👏 AND THERAPY 👏

Any strategy that locks higher risk people out of society indefinitely is unethical. The only way we can protect the "vulnerable" from this deadly pandemic is with collective action. We all need to do our part to reduce virus transmission and make public spaces accessible to all.
