A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Poor *areas* vote Republican, but it's often the richer *individuals* within those poorer areas that are most Republican

California is readying a one-time 5% tax on billionaires for the 2026 ballot that would go toward compensating for Trump's Medicaid cuts. The architects see it as a national model.
It will be announced today.

Now do 4 pm.

I had POTS post Covid for 6 months, very lucky things have mostly been ok since then. But I can’t imagine playing professional sports with those symptoms. Omg.
