What’s the difference between “longevity medicine” and primary care + public health?
Americans are tired of hearing that guns are the leading cause of death in children and are going to do something about it.
They’re going to stop vaccinating their kids.
Anybody wanna start backing up all that climate science research that is about to be erased for its inconvenience to our billionaires' economic interests?
Asking for a nation that is now afraid of science and reality.

This strategy needs to be amplified.
Like when Gandalf prevented the Trolls from eating the Dwarves in The Hobbit by getting them to fight amongst themselves.
We have a stupid cow problem. The stupid cows keep closing the latch and blaming the smart cows when we can’t get out.
Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.
This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.
“Do you support these onsies?!”
Are AI hallucinations really hallucinations or are they confabulations?
Hallucinate - to experience an apparent sensory perception of something that is not actually present.
Confabulate - to fill in gaps in memory by fabrication
This needs to be studied.

I look good in blue. Cool. Cool.
Just saw the show on prime. So good.
Which ironically accelerates our path to Fallout because Bezos is building a Vault.
All these women who turned in January 6 terrorists are in danger tonight
This is public health. But the stupid cows keep closing the gate, locking it, standing in the way, so the smart cow has to figure out how to solve all those problems, too.
That tracks.
I think he does it because he can. Like a petulant child who is limit testing. Unfortunately, the adults have left the room.
Anyone out there attending #PodfestExpo?
Something Melania did not find funny at all

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.
Well, the planet is burning.
Don't let them look away.
It is NOT WESTERN MEDICINE.
It is MODERN MEDICINE.
Modern medicine is a global, evidence-based practice that transcends geographic boundaries. Referring to it as “Western” ignores the contributions made by non-western physician and scientists.
Health insurance companies.
They should have razor thin margins. Anything that doesn’t go to paying for care or admin, goes back to the subscribers, not investors.
RFK Jr is an environmentalist. He’s trying to save the planet naturally, through pestilence.
Could we come up with another term for wellness companies that don’t actually make people well?
Like how “pro-life” is really anti-choice.
The Butter Battle Book by Dr Seuss
RFK Jr is an environmentalist. He wants to protect the planet and will do so by addressing overpopulation.
Mexico supplies about 2/3 of US vegetable imports and about half the fruit.
