It was a joy to spend a week in The Pitt as an MCI victim earlier this year during my hiatus. The whole experience was so positive, and the ADs did such an incredible job running the bloody ship. Peep my arm in the bottom left corner. Honored to be part of the MCU (medical cinematic universe).

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.

I've finished every episode of Suits. What a perfect comfort show. Now I want to watch the first few seasons all over again. Mid-2010s USA Network was such a gem.

I'm so so late to the Suits party, but I've made it through 6 seasons in 2 weeks. 3 more seasons plus a watch podcast AND a spin-off? What a treat

Hugely important thread for SoCal with data that counters some of the misinformation that got boosted immediately after the fires

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
