A member of the Braves Triple-A affiliate, the Gwinnett Stripers, rescued a kitten from traffic in late August, and the team called on fans to help name the cute kitty … ChipPurr Jones was the runaway answer and the kitten (with the help of treats) threw out the first pitch ☺️ Via @GoStripers
I’m generally not a fan of AGT, but it’s great that this amazing team had the stage. I love that there were breeds of all shapes and sizes! Super fun! 
Acro Canine Crew was on AGT again last night. I see that their website including the vision have been completely redone from when I first checked them out after their initial performance. I guess this type of exposure will do that! youtu.be/rPIpg2qlAY0?...
BREAKING: Today, I'm introducing a bill to BAN corporate takeovers of your doctor's office. Doctors should be able to care for their patients without greedy private equity investors getting in the way. Let's get this done.
Just think how much happier and more successful the world could be if our institutions and organizations and even corporations were developed with Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs at their core.
I survived. WootWoot! It was actually a nice quiet day… Also HR screwed up on the back end so my email wasn’t even turned on. I basically sat stand chatted with my boss and a new employee for several hours. 😊
I go back to work tomorrow after 8 weeks of recuperation from my injuries. I’m… verklempt. I’m getting stronger & can walk, etc. so that’s great. OTOH I feel a panicky at giving up the freedom of not being on any schedule but my own, & having to put on a good face with my co-workers & patients. 🥺
The French made a short film about what could happen after all immigrants would follow the ‘white, angry old man’s’ advice to go back where they came from.

I rather like the fact that curiosity doesn't require me to believe anything. I can encounter an idea I've never considered before, poke it with a stick, turn it over, ask questions about it... ...and still decide I don't know what I think. That seems perfectly respectable to me. 🧐
Over the years, I’ve worked w/ several patients (that I know of) in the thick of the 9/11 tragedy: 1 SAR dog handler, 1 businessman just outside the towers, 1 young woman inside the first tower, well below the impact. She died several months ago, and this might have been a blessing for her. 1/

Medium -sized rant 😡 I’m Infuriated with insurance bullsh!t. My PT clinic told me they could not make anymore appts for me bc their insurance team had not received pre-authorization from my ins for the 20-ish appts I’ve already had. I’m not angry at the clinic at all. I’m angry at the ins co. 1/
If I were emperor for a day, one change I'd make: In every political race, at every level, at least the *first* debate would be replaced by a simple test of knowledge. How do taxes work? What agency is responsible for what? Is your area growing or shrinking in population? Just basic stuff.

"Human kindness has never weakened the stamina or softened the fiber of a free people. A nation does not have to be cruel to be tough." — FDR October 13, 1940
Published in The New England Journal of Medicine. Peer-reviewed. Large sample size. Sound methodology. An antiviral pill has, for the FIRST time, been shown to PREVENT COVID-19 in individuals exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Ensitrelvir blocks the enzyme coronaviruses need to make new copies of themselves.
Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration. He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions). Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom. And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ. Remember this.
