How can we call ourselves a democracy when we continue to allow the free rein of a bloated police state that protects capital at the expense of the needs of working people, that can violate the laws we write with abandon, and can disregard the human rights of NYers with impunity

The City of New York has paid me and 300+ others $24k each, for beating us & detaining us w out rights in the Bronx, during the 2020 George Floyd rebellion

I would like Mayor Eric Adams Eric Adams, former chief pig and major Zionist, to know that this money is going to Palestine

Can you guess what happens when you (randomly) have more girls in a high school classroom?

...

▪️Girls' STEM test scores/course-taking durably ⬆️
▪️Girls' participation in class ⬆️
▪️Boys misbehavior ⬇️

Improvements are driven by disadvantaged students

Expanding access to lifesaving overdose reversal medications is a key part of President Biden' National Drug Control Strategy, and we've taken historic action over the past 3 years to deliver on this priority.

We applaud Honolulu's efforts & encourage all to follow.

A lot of ppl who use depressant drugs look REALLY young for their age.

One theory is that, bc these drugs slow the body’s systems & lower stress, aging is delayed.

Telomere theory could explain this if the process of “telomere shortening” is also slowed down.

New Yorkers know that two overdose prevention centers are at the center of a huge fight over the right way to address illicit drug use. We talked to Sam Rivera of OnPoint NYC to understand exactly how what they do and why. vitalcitynyc.org/articles/sam-r…

Remember when Jeffrey Epstein associate, and Donald Trump lawyer, Alan Dershowitz wrote an op-ed trying to justify having sex with kids?

Seems relevant now.

Sleep is the single most understudied, under-appreciated aspect of human health and behavior.

This book does a great job of explaining the different processes that regulate the sleep cycle, & the consequences of replacing sleep w/ stimulants (which obviously none of us do).

I think that longtime professionals like Nora Volkow still have the idea that an “OD death” is the final stage of a long opioid addiction; a person injecting heroin will either stop, or die from it.

The changing dynamics of drug supply, tolerance, polydrug use, confuse them.

If we’re going to start scrutinizing every detail of college presidents’ past writings for technical attribution issues, then let’s do it. Let’s go look at everyone’s past writings, not just Claudine Gay at Harvard. Let’s put them all under a microscope and see how they hold up.

Here’s your friendly reminder that bodily autonomy doesn’t begin or end at reproductive rights. It includes the right to use (ALL) drugs/substances. Everyone uses drugs.
