Does it seem to anyone else as though Trump appointees (cabinet, supreme court, etc) follow a similar pattern? "I disavow [a radical position] I've held my entire life, and will now respect historical laws and norms." Once approved, they go back to their true self? apnews.com/article/vacc...

I don’t trust that Trump won’t get conned by Putin. But come on; this is garbage coverage. We don’t know anything yet. If the end solution is that Ukraine’s pre-2014 territory is returned (unlikely, I’ll admit) then who cares if Europe is involved?

Hey #CardioSky, we just added @thomasmdas.bsky.social @nef11.bsky.social @anvoramd.bsky.social @tdoing.bsky.social @camwhitler.bsky.social and @tomkaier.com to our Interventional Cardiology Starter Pack. Have you followed them all yet? go.bsky.app/PiuxX9q

#CardioSky, check out this terrific panel - including a couple of CardioSky pioneers, @kardiologiehh.bsky.social and @mmamas1973.bsky.social!

Democrats in congress aren't the people I'd choose to be the first line of defense against the anti-constitutional chaos of Musk/Trump. Schumer, Jeffries et al need to meet this moment. FREE LINK www.nytimes.com/2025/02/10/o... 1/2

I am looking at divesting from any funds in my 401k/portfolio that include Tesla (Elon Musk’s primary source of financial worth). Found that one of my American Funds has a substantial stake. Bye bye!

Remember how many brilliant German scientists and other thinkers emigrated in the 30s, ultimately settling in the UK and US? Yeah. www.statnews.com/2025/02/12/t...

This was a pretty genius edition. Well done @nytimes.com Strands #346 “Don't stop believin'” 🔵🔵🔵🔵 🔵🔵🔵🟡 🔵

Incredible: Russ Vought’s daughter has cystic fibrosis and benefits from a “miracle drug” made possible by the National Institutes of Health—an agency Vought now aims to gut as part of the Project 2025 attack www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

This is amazing! Just followed every doc in every pack! Thank you, Dr. Medeiros! #MedSky

It’s cool that The Athletic is doing this, but why not put it on NYT Games? Connections: Sports Edition Puzzle #141 🔵🔵🔵🔵 🟣🟣🟣🟣 🟢🟢🟢🟢 🟡🟡🟡🟡

Are you one of those pharma companies who are struggling to keep the attention of digitally savvy physicians? If so, we should talk ... this is the work I've been doing for the past 15 years! #DOL #PharmaSky #PharmaMarketing

Could Bill Raftery do us all a favor and retire? He was annoying as hell when he was younger - now he’s unbearable. #iubb

This is a very interesting tactic - 100% tariff on any tesla coming in to canada. Going after the shadow president!! www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/pol...

Good statement. I assume most of those folks would rather do jail time than work for a government, but maybe private companies will follow suit. There’s more than one way to serve a sentence, and they’ll be traitors for the rest of their lives.

I love @do512.bsky.social, but I have a bone to pick. AUSTIN IS A DONUT DESERT. Yeah, I said it. Aside from the gourmet donuts (Voodoo, Gordoughs) all Austin donuts are terrible. 1/2 do512.com/p/donuts-in-...

So excited that we've got our first physician-specialty Starter Pack up! Want to follow all of the Interventional Cardiologists on BlueSky? Here you go! #CardioSky #MedSky

This entire story is fascinating. I just read that there was going to be a multibillion $ data center built in north Texas; I bet this news puts that plan on indefinite hold.

Great post about physician and fellow Austinite @drelisabethpotter.bsky.social on MDLinx. Can't believe she was literally pulled out of surgery to talk to United Healthcare. www.mdlinx.com/article/-im-... #MedSky #HealthInsurance

I appreciate those who are speaking out. But I hope that they are also actively working together to create a strategy to upend key pieces of Trump's platform legislatively. They're not going to be able to block everything, so they need to strategically prioritize their efforts and stay in lockstep.

Miles Rice and Anthony Leal (and even MR late) came up so big for the Hoosiers today. Too bad we couldn’t A) foul before the 3 pointer and B) draw up a basic out of bounds play. IU has to win that game. #iubb

This is an intelligent discussion covering some highly nuanced and difficult subjects. It might piss some of you off (it did me a couple times). But I think Seth is largely correct about why we are where we are. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

I’ve gotten so good at making my famous black bean soup that I can do it without a recipe. Or measuring. Kind of proud of myself.

@resilienx.bsky.social Hi, Wen! Good to see you out here.

When you threaten farm workers with deportation raids at their place of employment, they stop showing up for work. That decreases productivity, which thereby increases prices. This was predictable and we fucking told you so. This is squarely on Donald Trump.

I need an ENT app't asap; tried to get one in my Blue Cross/Blue Shield TX network. They only have 3 in Austin, and none have appointments. I decided to just go out of network and pay cash, and called a doctor who was recommended to me. Their office refused to see me as a cash-pay patient ... 1/2

Man, I love a snowy #footballsky game. I don’t have a dog in this hunt, so I’m cheering for the Rams AND the Eagles.
