Stating the obvious: tariffs are a regressive tax on the poorest Americans.

A company pays the tariff, and raises their prices to get that money. That price is paid by the consumer.

My beautiful wife found me some baking chocolate after looking for 2 months.

I make a sugar-free hot cocoa with it. Just heated milk, a ~tablespoon of cocoa and a heaping teaspoon of sweetener.

Guiltless enjoyment.

The NIH is the largest funder of biomedical research in the world.

Trump just ordered their meetings across the country to be canceled with no explanation.

This move puts critical work, like cancer research, on hold. We must let our scientists work. www.salon.com/2025/01/23/u...

In crisis, there are always insurmountable challenges. Thus, you focus on what can be done while marshaling resources to tackle what can't be done.

JC Penney just sent me a "Happy New Year" email.

They must really be pulling out all the stops to stay alive. I've never seen that and I've been with them for decades.

Many disabled people avoid the hospital at all costs. The punishing nature of the environment risks our baseline. Medical trauma impacts our ability to seek care. Hospital acquired infections pose serious risks to our health.

Imagine if someone cared enough to track this phenomenon? 🧵
