I nominate A Children’s Bible by Lydia Millet. Short but it sure does pack a punch.

That’s interesting, thanks for sharing. I think what’s being argued for is ostracizing the “dismissives.” But maybe not to easy to separate them out?

Disinfo is such a thorny problem in that ill informed people are preyed upon by genuinely bad actors.

To quote @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social, is it time to “bring back shame”?

Public health colleagues: discuss.

This goes against my instincts but it’s true that being nice isn’t working.

Manifest it 😃

One of the most grotesque war crimes in modern history

And then they bombed the school a second time—killing survivors & rescue workers

At least 13 hospitals and health facilities hit during attacks on Iran, WHO says Global health body investigating reports that four medics are among the 1,230 people killed in Iran since start of war

WHO hub in the Middle East has frozen emergency assistance due to bombings. They've stalled shipments of medical supplies, eg $6m in medicines for Gaza & polio supplies to Afghanistan & Pakistan.

WHO says >100,000 people displaced from Tehran & >60K from Lebanon. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Medical transition for trans kids is now banned for new referrals on the NHS. Trans kids in the UK can still go private or DIY (for now).

This means the new clinics that replaced GIDS are close to useless at best, conversion therapy at worst. 1/5

Short thread putting things back in order when discussing the Dubai airport closure:

The last photo of third-grader Mikaeil Mirdoraghi, waving to his mom before he left for school. He was killed shortly after in the U.S./Israeli strike on a primary school in Minab.

This world ….

It’s just so dark 😣

A banner featuring a logo on the side with a painted anemone poppy and the handwriting-style text that says "Heal Minds Gaza" in a green circle. Next to it reads: "Heal Minds Gaza is a new initiative that will support children’s healing through therapeutic activities for self-esteem, social skills, and community-building. Support the first project for children who were detained in occupation prisons." The text is written on notebook paper cut in a circle. The banner is decorated with crayon sketches of hearts, stars, and squiggles in different colors.

ICYMI, this one's for the kids.

80+ kids have returned to Gaza from occupation prisons, where they experienced unimaginable psychological violence. We're trying to deliver 6 days of mental health workshops to support them.

All boldness welcome! chuffed.org/project/hmg

@theferocity.bsky.social I don’t know but I’m just guessing …?

Young Man in a Hurry A memoir of discovery Gavin Newsom

In a hurry to throw trans kids under the bus (time.com/7296246/tran...)

He is succeeding in what he’s trying to do though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It’s hard to believe this is real, but it is. All people of conscience must speak and act against this before things get even worse.

Look at the picture.

Seriously, what an unfunny joke.

Devastating.

"Over one billion people have experienced childhood sexual assault, and 600 million women and girls have experienced physical or sexual violence. No other issue affecting a billion people receives less attention in health priorities and agendas."

Good on multiple levels

Fascinating study and thread.

The interventions that brought down #stunting rates globally were systemic and extended well outside the boundaries of the health system.
