Way beyond disgusted.

Good news on a topic I prioritized in 2014 with Assembly Jt Resolution 50 sponsored by ⁦Equality California⁩. It’s shameful that discrimination against LGBTQ people runs so deep & contrary to well-documented science even when lives can be saved w/more blood supply apple.news/ApZdQTVupRQKBT…

Doing What is Best for P22mountainlion Statement from National Wildlife Federation Beth Pratt leader, #SaveLACougars "We must recognize when the limits of this unconnected space have been reached, and take action to ensure the well-being of P-22 and the community" Read nwf.org/Latest-News/Pr…

At 12 years old, P-22 has lived an impressively long life..for Pratt, the assessment that he was struck by a car is “the final tragic note” in his remarkable life and speaks to how “the lack of connected space didn’t allow him to be fully a mountain lion.” latimes.com/california/new…

I am devastated. My Eulogy for P-22 nwf.org/Latest-News/Pr…

This is incredibly sad news about P-22. But, we can be uplifted by the legacy of awareness about the plight of wildlife that he brought to us. And we can take solace in the fact that he lived a long and meaningful life. RIP P-22!! latimes.com/california/sto…

RIP #KenBalcomb, friend to the orcas who helped end their captivity and also helped inspire my legislation #AB2305, the California Orca Protection Act, and its predecessor, #AB2140 #blackfishbill latimes.com/obituaries/sto…

CDC: “In the US, the prevalence of obesity and severe obesity has increased since 1980, and in 2017-2018 more than 4.5 million children and adolescents had severe obesity.”

Declining numbers of mental health workers is of utmost concern as need for mental health services increase. State investment is considerable but needs to be ongoing. latimes.com/california/sto…

Ok, I can’t not say it. HAPPY FESTIVUS, a festival for the rest of us. May your feats be strong and your grievances few.

Been making these improvised #RobbiesBrownies since the 80s. Props to the late #MaidaHeatter and her timeless “Book of Great Chocolate Desserts” for the inspiration and to mother-in-law Betty Black for gifting me the book after I dropped the hint that I coveted it. #BloomBakes
