I bumped into a post from @ashleygwinter.bsky.social when I got an alert about a different post and wanted to make sure her (incredibly scary) medical stuff was improved.
She doesn't seem to be on BlueSky hardly ever, and I'm rarely at the other place. However, thought I'd post this here

This is a great piece by Dr. Mell, and it's also really great that Retraction Watch decided to publish it. Thank you to all involved!

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

Feeling irritated, yet again in 2025, that the RCT planned by Ken Mukamal was derailed in 2018.
The idea that a trial that would have answered whether ETOH has CV benefits was too biased for not assessing cancer risks missed how we gain knowledge over time.

Evidence Against Drinking Has Grown. Will Federal Advice Change?
Officials in other countries are warning about the health hazards of alcohol in any amount. Americans are still told that moderate drinking is safe. What gives?

My sense is that Sensible Medicine isn't really on BlueSky, but I'm hoping more discussions of research move here from that other site.
With that in mind, I want to comment on a couple of aspects of Dr. Mandrola's article:

Unpopular opinion: Anyone using the word "gaslight" as a verb should be required to see the 1944 movie.
It would reduce misuse of the term AND they'd get to see a really great movie with Boyer, Bergman, and Cotten, so it's a win-win.
(Next post, requirements for using "win-win")
