Enough about the price of eggs, from everyone. Cut the shit. The economy isn’t broken. It’s working exactly as they designed it—to keep you desperate, distracted, and exhausted while they cash in.

Slotkin: While we are on the subject of Elon Musk, is there anyone in America who's comfortable with him and his gang using his own computer servers to poke to your tax returns, your health information, your bank accounts?

The other night on FB I kept seeing people re-post the following in which this person explained that the way I saw Trump behave badly isn’t actually what I saw. He goes on to explain how patient Trump is and how he is playing chess and is so many steps ahead of the rest of us.

Your tax dollars are paying for the richest man in the world to fly around when he has his own jets.
🚨 BREAKING: This is beyond outrageous. Elon Musk, his cranky mother Maye, and one of his young kids were chauffeured in Air Force One and Marine One—straight to the White House, where they’re apparently staying.
WTF is going on? It goes without saying, this is not normal. 🙄

2. No other human is better than you or more important than you. Every soul matters, including yours.
3. In times of challenge or strife it’s always OK to ask for help but you cannot expect someone to save you. You have to be willing to fight for yourself.

1. Don’t put other people on a pedestal or do what’s known as hero worship. People are flawed creatures and they’re gonna mess up. 1/4

Years ago, I read the book THE LAST LECTURE by Randy Pausch. After I read it, I decided to treat any post on social media as if it were things I wanted to tell my children if I weren’t around to tell it to them myself. After battling cancer last year, the decision felt even more imperative.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

One way to reduce drug spend is to have the FDA do an analysis of how long medicine retains it's potency. It can do it one drug at a time.
No one should throw away medicine they shouldn't have to. Whether pharmacy or patient.

The Myth of Drug Expiration Dates
Hospitals and pharmacies are required to toss expired drugs, no matter how expensive or vital. Meanwhile the FDA has long known that many remain safe and potent for years longer.

The egg industry has been impacted by a surge of bird flu cases, with more than 13 million egg-laying hens dying in December. That means a dozen large, Grade A eggs cost an average of $4.15 -- a nearly 37% increase from the year before. via @kcur.org
Egg prices are soaring again. Here’s why and what to expect
Bird flu has killed millions of hens in recent weeks, shrinking the supply of eggs and hiking up prices at grocery stores.
