Widow. Retiree. Home gardener. Politics until it goes off the deep end. Enjoy reading, writing short stories, and fighting against injustice and inhumanity anywhere. No time for complacency. Time to get all fired up and do something about it.

“Democrats seem to be waiting for Trump, Musk, and MAGA to naturally become unpopular, instead of working overtime to make them unpopular. We can’t wait. We need a unified, aggressive, and creative opposition in this country.” Read more from @leahgreenberg.bsky.social and @ezralevin.bsky.social. 👇

A new study this week showed how the most common blood test performed-—the CBC, complete blood count—contains a treasure chest of information that we are missing in reporting out to patients and doctors. erictopol.substack.com/p/your-lab-t...
