I was one of two medics on scene when the man who died last night was shot. I barely had time to begin an examination before the cops pushed and baton-ed me off of his body. That man was alive when I left and it will haunt me for the rest of my life that they screamed about 1/2

Y'all not going to slander Eva Longoria and question her credentials like she hasn't been doing politics and advocating for immigrants, farmworkers, and Latinx folks for the past 15 years.
I guess it's only white men that can transition from celebrity to governor and president.

I was talking to someone about planting food and fruit trees in public spaces and they were like “Why so everyone can steal the food?”
And I was like “See, that’s the problem right there. Why should taking fruit off a public tree be stealing?”

🚨🚨Here’s the big piece I’ve been promising: an Atlantic cover story about the US’s catastrophic mishandling of the pandemic. It’s a full autopsy of what went wrong, every unattended weakness & unheeded warning, every festering wound & reopened scar. 1/
