Travel, grant and funding cuts ‘stifling’ US health agencies in new Trump era Halts to external communications, publishing reports and reviewing and approving research a ‘dramatic shift’

Year 1 of our #NIH grant ends at the end of this month. We need a new notice of award to continue the 5-year plan. This fucking sucks.

OK folks. RFK Jr.'s confirmation hearing is next week. We need to get to work. Rope in EVERYONE you know. This is a five-alarm fire.

You think us Teachers will give up or students to ICE? We practice monthly hiding our children from bad guys. Try us.

BREAKING NEW: Food and Drug Administration to be headed by the Late, Great, Hannibal Lecter.

I now have 10,000 followers here but over 5.9 million at the other place. If you want Me to switch for good I need you to get the word out that I'm here, pathetically desperate for worship (just like in real life), and filled with even more contempt for you here than I was there.

Yes! 😂

I needed a laugh. 😂

If your response to this is "okay, bye" ...maybe take a minute! Folks do this ALL the time — and it drives me up the wall. Nearly two million LGBTQ+ people lie in Texas. That's second only to California. There are more Black people living in Texas — 3.8 million — than any other state.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Penis.

It’s hard to say. Are the fevers returning when his Tylenol is wearing off? I wouldn’t think autoimmune activity would cause such a high fever.

The doctors said the delirium is pretty common in elderly people during hospitalization. My father in law had it too when he was hospitalized with Parkinson’s and had a urinary Tracy infection. He hallucinated and got combative.

My mom developed hospital delirium after about 2 days. She ripped out her IV and tried to leave. She didn’t know where she was and thought the nurses were trying to kill her. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever been though.

Ugh. 😞

My point is that it helped me know what questions to ask. My heart goes out to you. I remember how hard it was. 🤍

💔😞 When my mom was in the hospital, we waited 3 days for sepsis labs to come in. Do you have access to his labs or patient portal? If I hadn’t had access to my mom’s, I wouldn’t have known that she had a heart attack or that her white blood cell count was increasing the entire time she was there.

Carl Sagan: "We have to simply come to grips with the real universe that we really live in and if some of our myth and some of our religion is inconsistent with it, it’s time to change the myth and the religion. We simply have to keep an open mind."

I now check iron levels on all women referred to me for POTS or inappropriate sinus tach! Treating it almost always helps atleast some.

Yeah, it can change by the hour. Glad you’re feeling some improvement.

I’m so sorry, I know how that goes. I hope you feel better when you wake up. 💛

Hey there! I keep forgetting alternatives exist! 😅
