We put a “Monster Spray” sticker on Febreze and would spray it in the girls’ room telling them that this would keep the monsters away… that and about 30 nightlights that keep multiplying 🤷🏻‍♂️

RFK wants to restrict use of weight-loss drugs like Ozempic More than 9million prescriptions for Ozempic and similar weight loss drugs are written every year in the US, estimates suggest - which is one of the world's fattest nations.

GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic represent one of the greatest advances in metabolic and nutritional health of all time (w/ likely even more health benefits we haven’t fully discovered) but RFK thinks that anyone taking them is “stupid” and “addicted” and just didn’t really try hard enough to lose weight

Politician pleads guilty in sexual assault case after being elected to Hancock County Council HANCOCK COUNTY, Ind. — A current central Indiana county commissioner has pleaded guilty in a Nevada sexual assault case, days after being elected to his local County Council. John D. Jessup – a cur…

A Trump supporting, anti-trans, anti-gay Republican was elected commissioner of the county where I grew up. He won despite being in jail on election night for a sexual assault in Vegas.

It’s now come out that the woman he assaulted was his daughter.

Surely I misheard. There’s no way Dr. Oz, the OG grifter, president of grift university, has been tapped to lead the largest and most influential US healthcare entity.

Correction Rates and Clinical Outcomes in Hospitalized Adults With Severe Hyponatremia This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the association of sodium correction rates with mortality among hospitalized adults with severe hyponatremia.

Honey, stop what you're doing, new hyponatremia research just dropped!

What's it say?

It looks like slow correction is associated with worse outcomes, like death and length of stay!

Was it just a small study?

No, it was a meta-analysis of almost 12,000 patients!

As I watch the Colts (whose fans also may require some element of therapy since the departure of Peyton Manning), I can at least take solace that they and my Bears seem to be trying this week 🤞

This might actually be a photo of Trump if he keeps up with the McDonald’s and gets “Muskblocked” from GLP-1s.

Well, McDonald’s was a major campaign contributor… You wouldn’t want them to seem hypocritical, right?
