Rest is a Public Health Issue.

In the Sisterhood of Limitless Living podcast, we address the importance of integrative and interconnected health from a public health perspective.

Many of us are overworked, overexhausted, and feel guilty about taking time off, not answering emails on weekends, and have been raised to expect to constantly give without prioritizing our own self care.

This is extraordinary.

The Montana House has banned Rep. Zooey Zephyr from the House for the rest of the session.

I wonder how her constituents feel about losing their full representation and their voice.

And so the attack on democracy continues.
In plain sight.

You might have noticed that I boosted a few---or maybe 50---toots about duly-elected Representative #ZooeyZephyr being censured, silenced and oppressed by the #Montana House today. For speaking truth to power. For protecting her constituents.

And I'll keep boosting those posts because everyone needs to pay attention to this story. This assault on #Democracy.

#Trans live matter. Right? Find a way to prove you believe that.

A journalist is writing a story about the trend I've talked about before -- defamation threats and lawsuits against women telling #metoo type stories of their experiences.

The journalist is interested in talking to people who've received such threats. If anyone is interested email me. I can put you together with the journalist. I've talked to her and she's serious about the story and has a good outlet for it.

The Forgotten History of the World's First Trans Clinic

A client has me thinking about chapters.

Chapters can feel essayistic (coving a topic) or episodic (covering an event). Some writers care most about their length.

I consider their shape & how they make patterns & how the breaks influence a reader's experience.

They're kind of arbitrary like paragraphs--which is fun.

How do you think about chapters?

It's interesting how reading USENET newsgroups was such a big part of the early Linux history. It actually makes sense now that it is pointed out. This was the late-1980s/early-1990s equivalent of "social media", where discussions happened digitally, etc. Before the web it was also a huge source of information that was otherwise much harder to come by. Either way, a great post by Lars Wirzenius reminiscing about the pre-1.0, the very first time Linux was ever installed, and even pre-Linux days going all the way back to Linus's first multi-threading x86 assembly program. What I'd love to see is a demo of Linux from that era :). #linux #ComputerHistory #RetroComputing #LinusTolvalds lwn.net/Articles/928581/

If you’re a high school teacher giving the “interview a professor“ assignment, please re-think what you’re doing.

first of all, your students are embarrassed to ask and faculty are embarrassed to decline. And when we don’t decline?

Given all the back-and-forth that it takes to set up the interview, this is taking a minimum of 1.5 hours of faculty time per student.

GOP strategy:

1) Cut taxes for the rich & corporations, claiming they'll pay for themselves

2) Explode the deficit

3) Use the debt & deficit as an excuse to demand cuts to programs that millions rely on

4) Repeat

They're trying to get away with it again. We can't let them.

Posted a bit of and . :) isn't about to completely redefine how we do anything especially interesting.

@SingsongRaptor I moved over here in October.. and I found that doing an introduction post every couple months with hashtag #introduction and pinning them to your profile can be helpful. Also make sure to visit the "Federated timeline" to find some like minded types. It takes a little bit but you'll find your people.. I boosted so hopefully a smidge. I was never one for 'numbers' but I have found some great humans here :) by just doing a little reaching out myself.
