Almost everyone I know is sick right now.

They’ve got a “bad flu” or a “nasty stomach bug”.

Almost no one will utter the word Covid.

It’s not too late to start wearing a mask.

It’s a great way to practice community care while keeping yourself healthy.

Ideally an N95 or better!

27-year-old Honduran man with end-stage renal failure denied dialysis until he signed a voluntary deportation order. Abolish DHS completely. Arrest most of its leaders.

That risk assessment will now change.

HIV we have preventive meds for.

Hep B and C we don’t. But Hep C at least has a highly effective cure.

For Hep B, the most reassuring thing is if the patient was born in the 1990’s or after. Because chances are greater than not they received the vaccine.

When someone comes in to the ER after an exposure to blood or bodily fluids we talk through risk for HIV, Hep B, Hep C.

The thing about being an US born person of immigrant extraction who has also lived in a couple of other countries and traveled to a bunch more is... I can be both very clear eyed in the way the US sucks while also being aware of how other countries use the USA's failings to distract from their own.

Disturbing to read DOJ has scrapped efforts from Trump I and Biden administrations to improve management of the escalating volume of digital evidence. These are not serious people.

really loved the bunnies; i made sure they were in scene a very brief time, and their owner had them in a large pen with hay and treats otherwise; they were rescue buns who had been dumped in a freezing winter park after years of abuse and now have a pampered life, so i wanted them happy

I never use my platform to bash a business, but I swear to God, I will never rent a car from Thrifty again. They charged me $1000 on my debit card as a hold for any damage on the vehicle and then needed my Social Security number to run a credit check.

I feel like I was scammed.

Trump opposes democracy in America. Could he support it in Venezuela?

Under Trump, America is committing war crimes. But under Biden, there were irritating student protests at a college I did not attend. I have never felt more politically homeless.

We earned it.

At Kennedy Center medallion dinner, Trump riffing on White House ballroom construction

Donors have generally refused to disclose the value of their donations

Hands down least “masculine” person I met covering tech. One lunch I had with him in Palo Alto (he was urging me to run for mayor and wanted to give me $) I recall thinking what an incredibly whiny boy (I think I told someone at the time: what a limp dick) and could not get away fast enough.

Y'all, I just wrote an answer to a question about the sensationalized news headlines circulating about the Chernobyl containment structure.

The bottom line is that there's a hole in the structure, which is not good, but it's not the end of containment, which some reports make it sound like.

I’m a little confused as to why ICE has or needs dogs tbh

The whole point of throwing a subordinate under the bus is that you don't jump down there with them

“I have failed you, sir.”

Elon Musk is worse at hiding it but this is the problem with all billionaires: they are a threat to democratic governance. They have an insatiable need to own and control everything. If you want to be free you have to curb their power, and demand political leaders who understand that

The government doing this to anyone is bad. The government doing this to one of the country's leading scholars of criminal law and procedure is bad too, but also just confoundingly stupid
