Pretty crazy that the party supported by actual swastika flag waving nazis shouting "Jews will not replace us" are even pretending that this is not a ludicrous ploy to target minorities and attack their freedom of speech.

U.S. will monitor immigrantsโ€™ social media for โ€˜antisemitic activityโ€™ Homeland Security said such activity would be grounds to deny visa and green-card applications, alarming free-speech and immigration experts.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services will begin screening immigrantsโ€™ social media accounts for antisemitic content as grounds to deny visa and green-card applications, the agency announced โ€” a move that immigration law and free-speech experts condemn as an alarming federal overstep.

This is why โ€œchokingโ€ during sex isnโ€™t benign or just a kink. Itโ€™s legitimately dangerous, and every time I say this I get called all sorts of names bc people think I โ€œdonโ€™t get it.โ€

Yes, this is exactly what it looks like... ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

This 15 centimetre -long, perfectly intact blood clot was coughed up in one piece. Even more remarkable? Itโ€™s an exact cast of the right bronchial treeโ€”the branching network of airways that carries air to and from the lungs. ๐Ÿงต

This letter by Dave Weldon is quite something. An amalgamation of anti-vax talking points and conspiracy theories that reads as if it was written by a child and clearly without the help of a spell checker.

The father of the unvaccinated child who died of measles said it was Godโ€™s will.

Yet they took her to the hospital.

I will never understand.

Great question! Aspiration pneumonia usually involves mouth flora (streptococci, Fusobacterium, Peptostreptococcus), not typically Pseudomonas or resistant GNRs. Gram neg concerns arise if lower GI contents are aspirated, but CTX covers gram neg like Klebsiella if needed so we're covered here โ˜บ๏ธ

An arterial structure at the base of the brain, ensures collateral circulation in case of blockages. Connects the internal carotid and vertebrobasilar arteries. Can help prevent ischemic strokes by redistributing blood when needed. #cardiosky

Well done. I was just confronted with a *friend* who is totally buying into nonsense she is being brainwashed with on the Fox channel.
I don't understand it. How can people with a somewhat functioning brain buy into all that nonsense?
Psychiatrists? Possibly, but there aren't all that many around.

aspiration pneumonitis resolves in 24-48h; if symptoms persist >48h, treat aspiration pneumonia with CTX

CTX covers key oral anaerobes (eg Peptostreptococcus) so extended anaerobe coverage is usually unnecessary
