Replying to @GavinNewsom @charliekirk11
You’re endorsing attacks on trans youth while in conversation with someone who dehumanizes trans people as a career. You’re attacking trans kids to bolster your national profile for a 2028 run. I deeply regret ever supporting you, and I genuinely hope your cowardice haunts you.

Because I am getting this question dozens of times in my DMs from trans people/parents... If you're trying to move for safety: Countries: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, France. States: Any blue state on my risk assessment map, which I'll update post-election.

Will Ferrell deciding to educate himself and others as well as supporting and loving Harper unconditionally when she came out to him really puts some other comedians to shame, huh.

Will Ferrell and his close friend, former head writer at SNL, Harper Steele embark on a cross-country road trip together after Harper comes out as a trans woman in the documentary film, WILL & HARPER. In select theaters this September and on Netflix September 27.

A year after I retired as an ALS caregiver, its impact on me is still felt every day. Not only does @sabrevaya bring visibility to the invisible caregivers among us, she's built a bridge to a better support system & gives me hope of transformation to come. Sandra = the best. 💙

On the last day of National Family Caregivers Month, I want to share that being a caregiver has been the single hardest experience of my life. It is incredibly painful, overwhelming and I often feel like with Brian's illness I have lost my own identity, my freedom, my own life.

With this story is a tender, must-watch video clip of ALS advocates Brian Wallach @bsw502 Sandra Abrevaya @sabrevaya who have led arguably "the most successful patient advocacy campaign this century.'' statnews.com/2023/09/08/als-… via @statnews @damiangarde @levfacher #STATFuture

ALS advocates say criticism of new drugs misses bigger picture

Brian Wallach, ALS advocate: “We know that these treatments are not cures, but they are important steps forward that give people real hope, and give people the chance to live longer and better lives.”

NIMBYs halt progress. When one works on seemingly intractable problems, like housing, reality hits - systemic solutions mean change for people who *don't want change*. I encountered this w/ Dementia facility planning, and in one town hall meeting I realized why change is SO slow.

Good evening, Twitter! I’m spending my Friday night in the affluent Bay Area suburb of Millbrae, where the county is presenting a plan to turn a hotel into ~100 homes for unhoused residents. It appears that the entire city is here, and they are *pissed*. 🧵

. #Navy Pilot Matt Bellina on #NurOwn 2014 - #ALS dx 2018 - Using Wheelchair & Trilogy 2019 - #NurOwnWorks. Stands out of wheelchair. No Trilogy Oct 2022 - Still standing & breathing Matt deserves chance to share evidence of how he "feels & functions" w #FDA ⬇️See 2019 Video
NurOwn improved how Matt feels & functions. He has objective evidence to corroborate his testimony. He deserves an opportunity to share this evidence with the FDA before it makes a decision about whether NurOwn should be approved. Matt received 7 doses of NurOwn. His first dose was shortly after Christmas in 2018. He received 5 more doses in 2019. After a gap of time, he received his final 7th dose in 2020. As a Navy pilot, Matt had a 10x risk of getting ALS. He sacrificed his life to fight for our country and our rights of due process. He deserves a right to share his story with the FDA. Matt co-authored a Press Release with more information about how ALS impacts Veterans. prn.to/3Vm70aO

Racing for ALS@racing_als11 Aug 2023
To state it clearly. The @US_FDA ‘s inability to provide access to a drug banned for weightlifters but legally prescribed to people like my brother for his fight against #als is what caused his death. His blood is on your hands & you need to fix the system!! #mnd #FDA #endals

Relying solely on “the data” to determine efficacy in #ALS clinical trials today is kind of like me trying to watch tv without my glasses or contacts. Yes, I can make out certain things, but I cannot see the details. At best, it’s fuzzy science that requires flexibility.

A woman whose husband has ALS walks into a hospital waiting room, ends up chatting with a woman with lung cancer getting a port for chemo and a gentleman with multiple myeloma. They all talk for an hour. The punch line? All we can do in this world is show up for one another ❤️

In Dec 2020, I traveled 1000 miles to enroll in the Healey Platform Trial. I was seen at the ALS clinic there. Travel is hard. This is a wonderful option for care.

We started Synapticure with one hope: to reimagine #ALS care.. Turning that hope into reality hasn't been simple--but, we think we're on the right track when feedback sounds like this. Synapticure is built for patients, by patients. ⬇️Give us a try today vist.ly/57pn

The ALS journey changes everything in every way when it touches your family - as a recovering ALS caregiver I still have few words. Hence why I’m grateful for this piece and ofc @bsw5020 and @sabrevaya for bringing much needed attn to this devastating disease.
