"There is a huge lesson to have learned from our COVID-19 response: When it comes to responding to public health crises, prevention is everything and complacency is dangerous. It can’t just be under emergency circumstances that we remove the barriers to vital, life-saving services. Our lives are still on the line."
"Although Narcan is readily available in many parts of the country, its previously prescription-only status created hurdles for individuals to obtain the lifesaving drug."
"Prevention is everything and vigilance is essential. Big corporations and the EPA must work hand in hand to take the crucial steps forward to update safety protocols and refuse to take the cheap way out, not when the health of communities and citizens is on the line."

"Part of her magic is her ability to write the most lyrically complex heartbreak anthem one minute, and then turn around and write a bubbly, goofy song about loving yourself the next.

"Grief knows no boundaries; it can attack you at work, in the middle of class, in your parked car while you listen to the radio. I’ve lived with my grief for the entirety of 2022 and I want to share the things I’ve learned and unlearned."
"The bodies of people who can become pregnant have always been policed, and are a part of the intricate carceral system that impacts each and every one of us in profound ways. Overturning Roe v Wade is not just about abortion, but it's about our rights and autonomy as citizens and our ability to be free from a violent and pervasive police state."
"When runners, myself included, evangelize about running, we like to talk about how accessible it is. We preach that "anyone can do it!" But running mile after mile, passing runner after runner, each wearing a different shoe with a different price, I realized how incorrect that statement is."
