Perioidic reminder that the reason you didn't see autistic people with intellectual disabilities on the street five decades ago was not because they didn't exist. It's because they were sent away to institutions and their parents were told to put away pictures of them.

Pierre Poilievre doesn’t talk about men’s biological clocks, sperm counts, or prostate health—because that would be invasive and absurd.
So why is it acceptable for him to comment on women’s reproductive timelines?
It’s not policy. It’s not leadership. It’s misogyny.

April 20 may mark the end of U.S. democracy. Trump’s team is set to recommend invoking the Insurrection Act - military at home, mass arrests, media lockdowns, elections suspended. The plan is real. The timeline is short. The only hope is exposing it before it starts.
On April 20th, 2025, the United States will Cross the Point of No Return.
That’s the day Donald Trump’s advisory committee is expected to release its findings on whether he should invoke the Insurrection Act — a move that would allow him to deploy the military domestically…

Your Michigan Medicine colleagues would appreciate if you relay the message that a basic medicine we use 1000x per day in the hospital, heparin, is also dependent on China, and people will die without it

Oh fuck off. Zelensky defends democracy for us all and Trump surrenders to the enemy and tries to extort him, but it's Zelensky's "style" that is "hurting" Ukraine. The #BrokenTimes sides with fascism, "fair or not."

I don’t hand out legal advice because I’m not a lawyer, and I only speak from personal experience, but I’d recommend following your federal agency and/or union guidelines on how to respond to the “five bullets” email.

So the secret police (secret because nothing identifies them as real police) carried her away. And no one helped her. Are Idahoans so asleep that they think they’re not next? And where is this poor woman now? Did she get a phone call? A lawyer? She sure as hell didn’t get her rights read to her.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.
Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law

3rd airplane crash, 10 dead, missing Alaskan plane found. 3rd crash in 10 days besides at least 3 other mishaps this week at airports. Do you think firing the FAA chief and sending a FORK IN THE ROAD memo hasn't affected these workers?

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.

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.
