I covered this in my newsletter yesterday & it’s truly wild. The professors say they’d only give an excused absence for a “medically necessary” abortion. I’d love to know how they expect students to prove this. Do they want young women to hand over their medical records?

After pro football's FIRST real Black team trounced the white boys on National TV, the NFL merged with the AFL. And that's why the Super Bowl is actually a DEI project. Happy Black History Month!

I hate how #inaccessible access is... I can't use the @Yale accessible shuttle without a medical note stating I use a wheelchair...but I'm new to the USA, so the earliest appt I could get was 2 months after my start date. I can't get into the office... 1/

@Yale I'm just so tired of "accessibility". If someone requests the accessible shuttle, it should be granted - no questions asked. TBH it's not better than the regular shuttle. Just ableds thinking ppl will abuse it, but as usual it just makes it #inaccessible 3/

Today’s Mantra: I give myself permission to receive support. I allow myself to receive support. I receive support in expected and unexpected ways. I AM supported by a loving, abundant Universe.
