There are two articles in NEJM this year that say naltrexone is 'contraindicated for cirrhosis'. This saddens me.

It is not supported by an evidence.

Alcohol is 'contraindicated for cirrhosis'. That is supported by evidence

I ride the subway twice a day, every day. The only recent notable experience was an older woman offering me her seat because I was returning home from a call in scrubs and she said I looked tired (a real “thank you/how dare you” moment) (I declined) (I was tired though)
Duffy: "If you're liberal, they want you to take public transportation ... the problem is that it's dirty. You have criminals. It's homeless shelters. It's insane asylums. It's a work ground for the criminal element of the city to prey upon the good people."

The only response to being anti-Hepatitis B vaccine is that you are decisively pro-cancer.
In a newsletter, gossip blogger & RFK/Trumpworld figure Houseinhabit claims that RFK didn't come out against the MMR vaccine because he wants to save his fire for "useless and unnecessary additions to the recommended schedule —namely Hep B and flu shots." Context: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
RFK’s flip-flop on the measles shot is ripping the anti-vax world apart
The true believers react, or not, to his surprising new stance.

My wife, an artist, immediately called the variceal bleed and need for a Blakemore in the latest episode of the Pitt. I mean, she said “I bet they need to hook her up to the wall” but she was 99% of the way there.

Nope. No thanks.
Breaking News: Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced that he would run for mayor of New York City, upending the race to unseat Eric Adams and setting up a comeback attempt three years after he resigned in disgrace.

The comeback attempt, three years after Andrew M. Cuomo resigned as governor in scandal, will test New Yorkers’ appetite for second chances, and change.

Love riding my unsafe crime train to work every day.
Alina Habba: "New York used to be one of the greatest cities in the country. And we will make it that way again. We will make it safe and we will allow tourism, we will allow people to drive to work, not have to take unsafe subways."

A lot of billionaires love to put their names on the medical schools that are going to be decimated as a result of this.

Have to admit this is an accurate description of current events in our house.

Every Saturday morning I go and have coffee at my parents' house. These coffees often involve my parents bringing up news and current events and, over the past few years, our discussions have gravitated toward me helping them make sense of a world they find to be increasingly complicated.

This blog really nails the commodification of New York life. Really clear eyed take down of the NYON extended universe.

Looking forward to the “vaccine tourism” era of American life.

@andrewmarchand.bsky.social are you still covering sports media in New York? Any insight as to why the Gotham Sports app is completely useless?

One of the few things I've had to smile about recently. Incredible.
Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.

the venn diagram between people upset at their millennial children for not giving them grandkids and people who have consistently voted over the past 30 years to make the world increasingly inhospitable is so dangerously close to a circle

Eric Adams pretending to get a phone call to get out of a meeting at the White House, somehow spotted minutes later in Manhattan laughing with Enes Kanter and Ja Rule at the 57th birthday party of a lesser Dick Tracy villain. They're at a "supper club" called Le Crime.
