It's impossible to separate the feigned purpose of these orgs pushing abortion reversal (as promoting > choice for pregnant people) from the environment we're in where abortion is stigmatized, sexism in healthcare is rampant, and bodily autonomy is weaponized for political gain.

Grateful to be able to speak with Anuj Chopra about the phenomenon of anti-abortion hotlines pushing abortion pill reversal.

Being pro-choice means supporting people in any decision about their body, even if they're changing their mind. That is not why these hotlines exist.

just a friendly public health reminder to us all that there are very few medically indicated reasons to encourage someone to lose weight or to even weigh someone

This morning at , panelists emphasized the importance of conversations across sectors, across movements, and across communities in order to strengthen information equity and combat harms in its absence. This is especially important in breaking news events & in crises.

Any other crafty academics constantly always confusing an Etsy tab for an Elsevier tab and vice versa 🤦🏻‍♀️

No amount of success will change the fact that I'm a young woman in a tech-heavy field and will be treated as such :)

So proud of my friends at Climate Reality who are using this May Day to stand up for their rights and set a precedent for how all workers should be treated. If you care about the planet you must care about its people!

Check it out if you haven’t already to learn some more about abortion (mis)info online!

So grateful that I don’t think you can tell I have a broken nail OR that I was in pain from period cramps 💁🏻‍♀️

Had the absolute pleasure of speaking with John Yang for PBS NewsHour on abortion misinfo. Tune in to hear about the findings of our meedan report, how false narratives are getting imbued into our laws, and what can be done about it.

been working on this one for a long time. There is no understating the implications of finding that misinformation ab abortion very likely increases when it's in the news (*cough cough like now*), which is exactly when ppl are most confused + in need of quality info

“The May leak and June [reversal of Roe] were both associated with increases in [abortion-related] misinformation online.” Great analysis from Jenna Sherman shows how spike in conversation also spikes existing dangerous misinfo meedan.com/post/meedan-an…

There's a lot to unpack when it comes to the two SCOTUS cases around Section 230. In this blog, my friend Kat Lo and I try and outline some of the implications of the different ways these decisions could go. Check it out!
