If they care about children why do school teachers have to buy their own supplies why is healthcare a for-profit industry why do they pretend like the planet isn’t being ruined why are children detained in cages why do they favor gun lobbies over victims They. Don’t. Care.

#ShareYourRejection : I’ve been told over & over by major cable networks that viewers don’t want to see a woman hosting a science show. But today I’m meeting up with my showrunner to see the 1st cut of my own science show, premiering on broadcast TV next month. Keep being you.

I definitely don’t want to name names but I’ve pitched one network a few times & they said their viewers “don’t want to hear about science from a woman” & recently said Ologies wouldn’t work for them b/c “they don’t do travel shows.” Hmm. Bummer. PERHAPS ANOTHER NETWORK THEN.

My vaccinated dad has #MultipleMyeloma . If you’re still on the fence about 💉but would help a stranger change a tire or catch a neighbor’s runaway dog, think of the vaccine as seriously good samaritan points. It’s a very easy incredibly lazy way to save a life.

Hey hot tip: you don’t have to drink at holiday parties to fit in or to be looser or more likable. You’re great as you are and if you don’t want to be there, stay home or leave early & say you have a cold. Anyone who judges you for not drinking has their own issues with it. K bye
