Do I know anyone planning a long-ish stay in Paris? Like 2 weeks or more

Can immigration law people weigh in on whether the suspension of immigration visas from poor countries/non-western|NATO countries applies to citizenship petitions for current permanent residents?

Requiring reviewers to log into some portal to review the manuscript as opposed to providing you with a direct link to the review form can legit add a week to two weeks to my review time I’m so sorry.

I understand that short form videos are what “works” in our new attention economy… how well do mid-length explanatory/criticism videos perform on youtube? I just don’t love the amount of nuance lost in 1-3 min reels/tik tok videos.

A 35 year old letter to the editor, written by a very ballsy 15 year old, about the Rodney King verdict.

Remembering today that having your heart broken is a necessary step on the path to becoming fully human. Whichever heartbreak is your first, it’s probably critical that a state break your heart so that you can develop a political imagination. If this is your first, I’m sorry and also welcome.

Still not a US citizen so limited in the kids of risks I can take bc self preservation or whatever. People with kids/dependents naturally take fewer risks. Leaves us with generational wealth type young doctors who need to be doing a lot more organizing.

Honestly feeling quite a bit of distress re the undoing of public health etc being facilitated by doctors, while many of our professional societies are, it seems, just doing press releases.

Have you ever had someone you love dearly die from the very failures you spend your waking hours trying to address in our healthcare system?

Marjorie Taylor Greene might be yalls next president bruh

The Zohran press conference is your regular reminder that the entire administration folds like tissue paper at the slightest hint of confidence and conviction, and thus the fact that national democrats are playing a game of capitulation and weakness is exactly why they're all getting away with it

Zohran flip your hair again we need healthcare get him to give us healthcare.

He knew he was lying lmao when he attacks your looks you know he’s jealous! Marco Rubio was “Little Marco”

Trump is so simple. He likes Zohran because he’s good looking and charismatic. Lolol

New from me:
Kash Patel is engaged in purges, removal of real accountability, and impunity for loyalists at the FBI.

Opinion | Trump Aid Cuts Kill More Christians Than Jihadists Do Murderous attacks on Christians and Muslims alike are a real problem in Nigeria. Cutting humanitarian assistance there is even more lethal.

“If Trump cares about Christians or anyone else in Nigeria, all he needs to do is restore aid and let babies live,” our columnist Nicholas Kristof writes.

Buprenorphine is safer than most if not any opioid we prescribe but people still act like dosing it is some esoteric practice. There’s no shortage of resources we can use to figure how to dose a medication for the first time. We should use them when prescribing a new medication.

Liraglutide is much cheaper especially if generic

Prescription drug coverage options are shrinking for Medicare shoppers Fewer choices may be on the menu again as Medicare patients shop for prescription coverage this fall.

Asking for the police to be abolished under whatever timeline is not an excess when this is how they act. Fucking insane.

If you’re white, your accomplishments are your own and you can resent and criticize the country all you like, but if you’re black and successful you should be grateful to white people for allowing you in their presence. bsky.app/profile/jess...

My friend Naftali Kaminski is an Israeli physician, a professor at Yale, and the child of Holocaust survivors. For me he is a model of absorbing his parents' stories intensely, looking the horror of the 20th century in the eyes, and drawing the lesson of radical empathy for the suffering of others.
