We'll still celebrate the holidays...no one is taking that away from us. It'll just be different than normal. So let's chat about that. (2/13)
SEX, DRUGS & SANTA CLAUS
It's Friday, March 278th, 2020, and this is the longest thread we've ever written. Let that sink in.
So, we need to talk about how we're going to spend our holidays. Before we get into it, let's pause to appreciate being able to have this talk. (1/13)
We'll still celebrate the holidays...no one is taking that away from us. It'll just be different than normal. So let's chat about that. (2/13)
So, why not say DO NOT GATHER WITH ANYONE & be done with it? Because experience tells us it doesn't work. Look at the ill-fated "Just Say No!" campaigns of the 80s-90s. (4/13)
In our approaches to sexual health or substance use, our goal isn’t to simply tell you not to do something and then call it a day. It’s to provide you with the best information available so that you can make safer choices. (5/13)
We know some of you may choose to gather w/family from outside your household & some of you may travel. Don't do that. (6/13)
And please consider those who may be at higher risk in your family and make good choices to protect them. (7/13)
Well, to be fair, the speed limit on the 417 is 100km/h, but that doesn't mean it's safe (or wise) to drive that fast in a blizzard. The actions we take must always be (8/13)
Right now, it's not safe to gather with people who live outside of your household. But the holidays aren't cancelled, far from it! (9/13)
We know. This sucks. None of us want to be in this boat, but here we are. Speaking of boats, ever heard the phrase "steady as she goes"? It's an old nautical term, an order given to keep the (10/13)
It's nautical harm reduction: knowing that a perfectly stable ship isn't possible during rough times. But stability is important, (11/13)

Ok so there’s a conspiracy theory going around that this woman was faking her injury with an onion.
This is likely false. Onions are a folk remedy for pepper spray.
The theory, which has some merit, is that since onions make you cry, it helps flush the irritants from your eyes with natural tears.
However, this is not recommended as a treatment for pepper spray and is ultimately not very effective.
Pepper spray, tear gas, mace, CN, HC, and other agents are best removed with a flush of water or, if you have the proper mixture, saline. Nothing else.
We do not do chemistry in our eyeballs. We are not putting chemicals in our eyes. We are not putting produce in our eyes. We are removing the chemicals with safe, neutral water.

Wait, so Elizabeth from Knoxville, who claims she was maced after storming the Capitol, was dabbing her eyes with an onion towel? pic.twitter.com/99UvDcS0Rj

We - myself from AIPWA, @kawalpreetdu from @AISA_tweets and advocate Sneha from @HRLNIndia are in Kanth, #Moradabad to meet the Muskan and Rashid, the couple who are victims of illegal arrest, forced abortion by @UPPolice under the hateful ordinance passed by @myogiadityanath
We found that 1) Muskan is very weak after her miscarriage, and the Moradabad District Hospital where she was admitted has not given her the treatment papers, nor any course of antibiotics and painkillers to prevent post miscarriage infections that can affect fertility in future
2) The first dose of antibiotics & painkillers Muskan received is today - after we got her to speak on phone to a senior gynaecologist in Delhi, who explained that antibiotics are always prescribed following a miscarriage, to prevent infections.
3) Muskan alleges that the hospital administered abortifacient injections after which she suffered a miscarriage. What is indisputable is that the hospital deliberately failed in its duty to a patient, a) by not telling Muskan re the miscarriage b) by not prescribing antibiotics
and c) by withholding her treatment papers which every patient is supposed to receive
Moreover, how did the head of the UP State Commission for Protection of Child Rights Dr Vishesh Gupta, declare that pregnancy was intact? On whose orders did Dr Vishesh Gutpa lie?

On Sunday, @joerwallen & I broke the story of Pinky\u2019s miscarriage for @Telegraph. Today Pinky's husband Rashid and brother Salim were released from jail. Now the question arises that who misuse new Law? Bajrangdal? If yes, Will they be punished?#Love_Jihad pic.twitter.com/z18ItTVCsL
