I had to code and pronounce a time of death on a respiratory therapist colleague. There's a memorial plaque for her outside the emergency department to this day. I wrote and re-wrote my will. I will never forgive these ghouls trying to rewrite history and deny our experience.

I think we need to coin "Trumple down". Which is to triple down on a ridiculous lie apparent to everyone willing to question it.

Do NOT fuck around and find out the hard way, friends! Have your go bag packed, ready, your vehicle loaded and filled with enough fuel to get out, have a N95 or P100 on, and be ready to get the fuck out on a moment’s notice. Have multiple routes out planned and ready. Don’t wait until it’s too late.

On Tuesday, the Trump Admin announced they were ending the Medicare Part D subsidy program. Touching the third rail of politics is a heckuva strategy going into midterms (part D open enrollment starts 10/15). My latest analysis for @msnowreports.bsky.social. www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

Opinion | Trump’s Medicare change comes at a curious time

Less than three weeks before the midterm elections, America’s most reliable voting bloc will receive notice of higher healthcare costs.

Having taken ballet in my youth, I could figure out the literal meaning of pied a terre, but thank you to Mayor Mamdani for expanding my knowledge of fancy pants sayings 😜 You know people have money when they're not speaking of their US real estate holdings in English 😂

Impermanence means we need to be planning for how we build a better society when these fuckers die.

While you sweat out summer or worse, remember that every time this conflict with Iran (or Russia's war) blows up oil infrastructure it's exacerbating climate change.

I'm curious what people think about this "market humanism" idea.

Market Humanism: A New Paradigm for a New Era

Progressives have been fighting on the neoliberals’ terms. Market Humanism flips that—and provides a winning and more humane narrative. Oh—and a far more prosperous country.

Measles cases are increasing globally, including in the United States. The majority of measles cases imported into the United States occur in unvaccinated U.S. residents who become infected during international travel. A list of countries with confirmed measles outbreaks can be found on the Global Measles Travel Health Notice (THN). Measles spreads rapidly in communities that are not fully vaccinated and may pose a risk to international travelers in places not included in the THN. CDC recommends all travelers get fully vaccinated against measles before traveling to any international destination.

Seems to me a "shithole country" is a state with an incompetent government that cuts public health and disease surveillance leading to a Cyclospora outbreak. 🤷‍♀️
