⚠️Yikes.

📈Flu season in #Wisconsin is taking off like a rocket.

🔴Earlier AND faster than years past.

💉If you have not yet received your #FluShot NOW is the time.

✅Decreases likelihood of infection, severe disease, and... yes... lowers community transmission.

Pat Connaughton is completely off the #Bucks injury report.

Is he good to go tonight vs. Portland?
"That's my hope."

He adds he feels good & pretty strong.

"As long as all things go well during warmups tonight, hopefully we'll be out there at some point during the game."

All the “raise your hands” and “boost this to say” stuff are gamified tactics that can stay on the birdsite. Don’t bring that here, please.

I’ve found some of my #PostcardsToVoters tribe here!

A cup of coffee and 5 #PostcardsToVoters for @SenatorWarnock. 10 minutes & $2.70, not counting coffee!

Thread.

Q: “Republicans enact policies that hurt their own constituents.

So why do people vote for them?”

A: It has to do with the purpose of government.

For some people, purpose of government is to help people. We think fairness is possible and the government's job is to create fairness.

Others have a different view.

They think there’s a natural order: Some people belong on top; others at the bottom.

They think people with money and power deserve their money and power.

And why should you get the bivalent booster if immune-evasive variants are growing? Because it works better! https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.11.17.516898v1

Abortion is healthcare. Healthcare is a human right.

I think it's glorious that there's now a Mastodon server operated by people who used to work for Twitter (macaw.social). I could have never imagined it when I started in 2016.

A reminder that we asked young people to turn out and they did. Latino voters leaned into Democrats. Black men voted overwhelmingly for Stacey. Abortion was top of mind for women. Black women continued to show up strong. The Party should not compromise on the priorities of those voters. They hold the future.

Mastodon is the NPR of social media. "Please support your local instance!"

I didn’t know this, now I do. I figured out how to filter out words I don’t want to see, like Twitter and the former President. I’ll be using block, reporting and filters if I have to. To filter words go to Preferences, Filter, Add. Simple lol.

Your Twitter handle can be registered by anyone 30 days after deactivation. If impersonation is in your threat model, lock your account and park it.

The next time someone tells you that America isn’t a racist country, just remind them that this nation is willing to accept treason from a white president but not healthcare from a Black one.
