I appreciate you doing that. My partner who works in public health with an epidemiology background offered to share expertise with our church and others and was rejected. It's been heartbreaking to see someone who views biology as their calling be repeated rejected by the evangelical community.
RFK is secretary of Hazards and Human Suffering. His testimony today shows his staggering incompetency and his complete indifference to the truth — indifference that is costing lives. He must be impeached before he harms more people. #ImpeachRFK
You either stand with abusers or stand against them. I don't care what party they're affiliated with, how much money they have, or who they know. More than Epstein deserve consequences for this abuse. #releasetheepsteinfiles
Changing the logo for a family restaurant is not hurting anyone. Changing the CDC to include crackpot science is extremely dangerous. #CDC #CrackerBarrel #RFKJr #vaccines #conspiracytheories #crackpot #disease #COVID_19 #measles #science #medicine #Trump
Definitely understood but I appreciate your voice. Every little light shining helps.
For national dog day. Not my pup but she's a cute pup
When I started Pittsburgh Remains to be Seen, I said my goal was to create walking tours of the mapped artifacts. That project became the PastFinders app and today there are now four walking tours that highlight visible artifacts of long-gone structures and places! Give them a try!
The Black History tour of the Hill District is also awesome as is the Bridges tour that loops the Triangle and treats you to a history of pretty much every bridge that ever spanned the rivers. We also have some VERY exciting partnerships with local organizations in the works!
Agreed. Wish more people would recognize this
Thank you!
sock progress. slow going. lots of little barriers keep me from it but trying to keep at it.
Me too…
You got this!
What's really disturbing about the current state of things is having a leader who doesn't read and with serious comprehension problems now believing our court and Congress have given him license to do absolutely whatever he wants and everyone around him tells him he's right. I guess this is great🤦

The world is too much so I knit. Finished this. Picked up the yarn last year as a souvenir on a trip to Madrid. Life was so much better last year.
It's simple: people who have been convicted of crimes like bribery, embezzlement, fraud & more should have no place in high executive office. My "No Corporate Crooks" Act would ban them from executive government service. It's a straightforward way to help restore public trust & root out corruption.
The good sir is holding court this morning
Couldn't make it to #nokings but did make it to #standupforscience Thank you to everyone organizing and participating.
Can't make it to our rally Saturday, or just looking for even more ways to get involved? We will be joining Allegheney United for Immigrant Rights & Justice Coalition on Sunday at 1pm at the City County building to say ICE OUT! ✊🏻
Always tears and their joy gives me hope
One side is an unlawfully masked, unbadged secret police rounding and arresting law-abiding essential workers to prop up a fascist regime The other side is citizens resisting an unjust government, just as MLK taught us to do. I am 100% on the side of the American people against ICE. Who's with me?
Peonies make me happy. They never last long but they're gorgeous while they're here
Systemic protections and guardrails are essential to a functioning society. Nature understands this even if oligarchs don't.
The Amulet series were also popular with both for graphic novels
39 Clues hooked my kids. Reading and listening to the audio books on our long car rides
I had very similar thoughts of "what does he like doing?" and if he can't figure that out, then he needs to resign and not shirk his responsibility to his constituents. Part of good mental health is recognizing when a work situation is unhealthy and working towards making it better.
I'm so sorry
Thank you for all you do
GUYS. The comment period for this ends in THREE DAYS. PLEASE if you have even a little bit of time, submit a comment here: www.regulations.gov/commenton/FD... Let them know EVERYONE should be able to get COVID vaccines. They BACK DOWN when WE PUSH BACK. www.statnews.com/2025/05/20/f...
Done
All the time

Love this
So basically the wonderful life my parents and grandparents had in the steel and coal towns where everyone was depressed and died prematurely

It's bamboo yarn. I couldn't resist the color
Knitting progress
You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.
Blueberry blossoms are making me happy today
RFK Jr. paints autism in a apocalyptic colors. As an #ActuallyAutistic journalist who has spent the last decade writing about autism, I had to confront him about it. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
Funny how everything else is indoctrination but not fox propaganda
The stages in a Donald Trump deal: 1. Lie about something being a problem 2. Do something to "fix" it, which causes an actual problem 3. Say you won't reverse what you've done 4. Reverse what you've done 5. Say "Art of the deal"
Thank you but with an administration that doesn't believe in free education for all and that is actively removing the dept of education while Congress watches, what plan do you have to enforce this should it actually pass?
We wouldn’t be here if SCOTUS had allowed the January 6th trial to go forward as scheduled.
There it is…
Thank you for sharing this and for your service
Thank you
It's about damn time #standup #goodtrouble
Two thirds of all religious leaders, and three fourths of evangelical protestant leaders, had something to say about evolution in 2019-2020. So, what seminary wants to hire me to teach evolutionary biology? Because clearly there is a need.
Thank you!! I've hated the date requirement. Just an added hoop to trip voters up.
Congress is useless. How is there not a law against this? He pulled this garbage in PA too
Wore my green today for my partner working in public health. First COVID and now this. I'm so thankful for public health workers who keep plugging away and doing their best to keep us safe.
This event is becoming truly huge. We counted no less than NINETY organizations co-sponsoring it. As a reminder, there are TWO local events in Pittsburgh that day. If you can't make it at 12:30 downtown, maybe you can make it at 5pm in Shadyside! (Links in comments.)
So what's your plan to correct this? Are you demanding resignations?
Love a Get Smart reference
So I guess this is the quality work we get when we eliminate those pesky DEI people

Another mistake. Another restart Hopefully this one sticks
Trump’s action to illegally dismantle the Department of Education is dangerous and would abandon our children and our communities. My full statement:
No kings.
I miss him and his VP.
They have Fetterman. He sees no problem with any of this.
Thank you for doing this and I'm sorry that you have to.
With stocks tanking, will Congress now standup to these guys, since they're all invested in the markets? Just hoping for a return to precedented times for once
Stand up for science, Pittsburgh
Is it really "shockingly lawless" when he's been convicted of crimes and charged with many more. He has never actually hid his disdain for the rule of law.

"The golden age of America" Clearly fool's gold
And Hulu is the worst. Cutting Oscars off at 10:30
And clearly has no clue what any of these people do at their jobs- firing nuclear monitors and bird flu researchers

I really like that "The failure mode of clever..."
“Charity can take care of it” is a common refrain I’m hearing in response to US government funding being cut across the board. No. No, it can’t.
I hope you get a win
I (from the US) went to Portugal last year with my Canadian friend and when people asked where we were from, I just let her answer
If you feel this way, you're not along. And together, we're going to keep the Republic. Pass it on.
Go Canada!! 🇨🇦
@johnfetterman.com Are we in a crisis yet? Or waiting for the thrown
Relatable.
Thank you!
