“Imagine you are coming to see me for a consultation about menopause, and I explain my recommendations, assure you that I practice evidence-based medicine, and then tell you I am relying on a 45-year-old study to guide your care. Not even a clinical trial, but a case-control study…”
Did you know Makary is using 45 year old, 34 year old, and 29 year old observational studies to spread disinformation about MHT? Ignoring newer, far better quality data is misogyny open.substack.com/pub/vajenda/...

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Charlie Kirk spent his last days manufacturing a lurid panic about “Black-on-White crime” and his final post on X was a call to politicize a murder. He was not “practicing politics the right way.“ You can oppose what happened yesterday without pretending he was One of the Good Ones.

Charlie Kirk advocated for killing gay people

Implied that Black airline pilots weren’t qualified because they were DEI hires

Terrorized teachers by establishing a “professor watchlist”

He had the right to espouse these viewpoints and should never have been murdered

But this is who he was
Losing my goddamned mind.

We can condemn political violence without valorizing a destructive, hateful bigot.

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

If anyone tries to do this in a professional context I'll be asking for their favorite quote from him. Their favorite philosophy. Their favorite point he made. Fascinated to see if they can come up with anything that doesn't get them sent to HR.
All who eulogize this person positively & all media outlets martyring him, including the CEO of this app, you all KNOW you could roll out a scroll's worth of quotes like this attributed to him. You KNOW he stoked violence. In honoring him you stoke more.

The rest of us now see how You think of us.

Our country is being ran by the most corrupt president in American history.

While working Americans struggle to pay higher prices, he's padding his pockets with crypto scams and cutting taxes for his billionaire donors.

And what's the GOP doing about it? Not a damn thing.

It was clear the Russians weren’t there to negotiate in good faith when Sergei Lavrov arrived wearing a sweater with CCCP on it

They were trolling Trump from the beginning—and Trump enthusiastically let himself be trolled.

(CCCP is Cyrillic for USSR, a nod to Russia’s current expansionist goals.)
