"This policy does look to me like what happens when nobody will tell the king no ... This is America. We’re not supposed to believe in the mysterious godlike divination powers of the leader."

This is disturbing, devastating, heartbreaking.
Women are half of the population yet don't have the research to make informed health decisions. Those of us who are women’s health warriors need to dig in, channel our righteous anger, and ensure women’s health research isn’t obliterated.
They are not only actively law defying and cruel, they are also just crazily incompetent ...

Truly abhorrent ...
If the fentanyl crisis (thankfully improving) is the reason to impose all these tariffs on our neighbors ... how does this make sense? ... and since guns don't kill peoples, let's not focus on mental health either 😡🤬

"When is someone going to say something" ... even the option page of the WSJ

THIS! "President Trump ... loves tariffs because he loves to make people beg."

Will there be a flu vaccine in 2025? Who will decide what strains to inoculate against? ... this is what you get from an authoritarian, anti science administration!
“We were told nothing”: What to know about the canceled meeting to discuss the next flu shot - TIME
While not surprising, just so mindbogglingly insane ...
Goodbye Zuckerberg … I downloaded all my photos from FB and deleted my apps. I will now be spending my time on LinkedIn and Bluesky. I will miss the personal updates on FB and IG, but hope to reconnect with many of you here and, better even, in person.
Libby and iBooks have replaced Kindle – I downloaded my list of read books, but will not miss anything else about it
A million available streaming services have replaced Prime Video,
yet, so easily, the NYT for the Washington Post back in October already.
Local businesses + Doordash or direct shipping from suppliers have replaced Amazon + Prime … for the most part Doordash will deliver even more quickly, but for other things it requires a little planning. Totally worth it though! BTW Instacart+ works great with Costco to avoid Target as well!
Goodbye Bezos was a little harder, yet totally and effectively achievable:
Sprouts Farmers Market + Instacart+ have easily replaced Wholefoods + Prime
Goodbye Musk was easy – happened years ago during his obnoxious takeover of Twitter. Have not been on X ever and will never buy a Tesla!
Hello Bluesky! Yesterday, I said good bye to businesses whose leaders have abdicated their economic power to help our nation for entirely selfish reasons, or worse are actively aiding the reckless and authoritarian administration. I said a final good bye to Musk, Bezos, and Zuckerberg.
