I can't help but feel partially responsible for this #littlefireseverywhere
Did you notice that Brian has a pager in his pocket? As the cool kids did. #LittleFiresEverywhere
The thing is, I think that Elena truly does care about Pearl. She just... takes it the wrong way. The problem with good intentions. #LittleFiresEverywhere
Oh god Trip's face when he come downstairs with Moody and Pearl's not there. "I... didn't think this through." #LittleFiresEverywhere
Text from my husband's coworker: "Pacey is being so hard on her, I didn't know he had it in him" 😂 #LittleFiresEverywhere
This is a gorgeous cover of "Pictures of You." #LittleFiresEverywhere
Moody and Trip looking at each other on the couch. 😭 #littlefireseverywhere
Rare moment of sympathy between the sisters. And then all the siblings. I love this moment with all of them on the couch. #LittleFiresEverywhere
Am I wrong @liztigelaar or are most of the covers done by women? (I love them, btw.) #LittleFiresEverywhere
WOW that last intense staredown. #LittleFiresEverywhere
There is ONE more episode left. Next Wednesday. Don't miss it. @LittleFiresHulu #LittleFiresEverywhere
Text from my husband's coworker: "Elena just threatened Mia! I knew she had it in her" 😂😂😂 #littlefireseverywhere

A story: my mom had tuberculosis as a child, in postwar Hong Kong. TB, fyi, is serious and deadly. Her sister also had it and has long-term health issues. My mom recovered, but TB stays dormant in your system for the rest of your life. (1/X)
In early 2020 my mom was prescribed a biological medicine for something unrelated. It suppressed her immune system and reactivated her TB. Fortunately, her doctors screens for this and caught it right away! Because… TB is also super, super infectious. (2/X)
Side note: think about every Victorian novel you’ve read/TV show you’ve seen. You know how there’s always someone coughing up blood and/or wasting away from consumption? THAT is tuberculosis. (3/X)

Guns make us SO FREE that people in Maine are still on lockdown while police hunt for a mass killer armed with an AR-15. We can’t keep living like this.
But yeah, sure, let’s focus on people in drag, LGBTQ+ kids, and books that mention sex of any kind, that’s the REAL danger
People talk about guns and 2A as important for people to protect themselves. At what point will we agree that part of government’s role is to protect residents, because it *shouldn’t* be every man for themselves?

Horrifying but unsurprising findings here, including: misogyny & racism are rampant and intertwined in the inc*l community, that most already are misogynistic before joining, & “in*els degrade all women but women of color are doubly denigrated by incels.” psypost.org/2023/06/analys…
If you’re wondering why I put an asterisk in the previous tweet, it’s because I’m one of the many, many women of color that live rent-free in these dudes’ minds. I still get random comments from them on unrelated tweets, out of the blue.
“Perhaps naively, we did not think that misogyny would be as common as it is. We suspected that misogyny might be the product of a vocal minority, whereas other users were not there to hate women but instead talk about the difficulties with being an inc*l. This was not the case.”

For an interview, I tried to look up the exact date of a particular attack on an elderly Asian American during the pandemic. There were so many similar attacks it took me multiple attempts to find the specific one I was referring to.
Even narrowing my search to
- Asian person stomped
- caught on camera
- midtown Manhattan
- daytime
led to *multiple* cases. Multiple.

That doesn't include the other cases where people were beaten, stabbed, punched, kicked, had acid thrown on them...
...Or the cases not in midtown but in Times Square, Yonkers, Brooklyn. Or the cases not in New York but in every other major city in the US. Or the cases where it wasn't caught on camera.

What I’m getting from these “just stop masking!” pieces is that deep down, some people feel so guilty about not masking that they’d like everyone to stop… so they can stop feeing guilty. 🤔
I think I’ve talked about this before, but in grad school there was this one guy on campus who always wore a bike helmet. All the time, inside and out. In class, walking around. It was a bit unusual, but okay, cool! If he likes wearing a helmet, why not?
It literally makes no difference to anyone else if someone wants to wear a bike helmet 24/7. It would be ridiculous for someone, say, to write a long piece in a national magazine about why this dude doesn’t need to wear a bike helmet… unless they were somehow feeling bad?

So @Harvard just sent out an email that says "COVID is not going away"... and then cancelling all COVID tracing and mitigation measures university wide. Brilliant.
"Students and employees will no longer need to report a positive COVID-19 case to HUHS. Anyone who tests positive will manage their isolation independently by referring to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance."
"COVID-19 has not gone away. ... Meanwhile, individual action remains critical for personal protection." INDIVIDUAL ACTION REMAINS CRITICAL LARGELY BECAUSE NO ONE IS MAKING ANY COLLECTIVE ACTIONS ON A SOCIETAL LEVEL
