As a four-decade veteran of the daily journalism business, let me tell you: Every competent political reporter in this country knows that Trump is trying to establish a dictatorship. The industry's shame is that so few journalists will say so, and the ones who do lose their jobs.

Give me a fucking break. I’m a 52 year old gay man. I was a teenager in the late 1980s when the entire world described us as immoral, disgusting, disease carriers. People were arrested for “gross indecency” for kissing in public. Homophobic attacks were routine and somehow I’m not a fucking Nazi.

PSA for people who had a uterus in their lifetime: if you were getting GYN care before a hysterectomy you still need GYN care after a hysterectomy. There’s still a lot of preventative care that occurs even without a uterus!

Women are less likely to receive lifesaving CPR after cardiac arrest and less likely to survive.
This interesting research looks into how CPR training & the sex of CPR manikins contributes to inequitable cardiac arrest outcomes.
