ALL firefighters are required to maintain their hair in accordance with fire department codes which require that hair must not fall below the collar and must not interfere with personal protective equipment. But you know, homophobia.

So I am to believe that Trump's top priority right now is filling low-level legal roles in his administration, AND he needed to talk to Alito specifically about this one, AND neither man said ANYTHING else in a private call of which there is no record, got it, great abcnews.go.com/US/trump-spe...

Kash Patel, whom Donald Trump plans to nominate as F.B.I. director, "has helpfully provided us with a list of people President Biden should pardon before he leaves office," writes the columnist Michelle Goldberg. nyti.ms/3VpSAsk

A medical mystery in a remote town in the Democratic Republic of Congo led to the discovery of alarming changes in the mpox virus and, eventually, to a global health emergency. β€œThere are so many things about this virus we don’t know,” said one doctor in Kamituga.

WOW πŸ”₯ Our article is still on the most viewed list in the last 7 days from #JAMANetworkOpen @zacrobid.bsky.social @dremilymcd.bsky.social @drtoddlee.bsky.social @bradspellberg.bsky.social #idsky #medsky #utisky #EMIMCC

To everyone saying, "Can't Biden order background checks, why won't he step up," why don't YOU step up? 5 Senators have expressed an interest in background checks. If they insist on it, that's enough to force the issue--and for longer than just this first round of nominees.

Get ready: Pam Bondi's confirmation hearings will be brutal. Dems will press her on: *what she'll do when Trump orders prosecutions of enemies *if she'll back pardon of 1/6ers who attacked cops *Trump threat to punish media that displease him New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1887...

I find it interesting that Musk's D.O.G.E. just rolled out a plan that includes a proposal to defund NASA. Who would stand to gain from that? His company, SpaceX. This new department has nothing to do with efficiency and everything to do with funneling public tax dollars into private hands.

Good Morning! On this day, (Saturday) November 23 in 1898 Rachel Fuller Brown was born. She was a chemist best known for her long-distance collaboration with microbiologist Elizabeth Lee Hazen in developing the first useful antifungal antibiotic, nystatin, while doing research. #WomeninSTEM πŸ§ͺ

Good to see the Times picking up on a theme some of us have been hammering for a while: Trump's tariffs, and especially an opaque exemption process, will be an engine of massive crony capitalism 1/ www.nytimes.com/2024/11/23/u...

Really one of the more interesting stories of this election. The presidential stuff tends to bury even other federal stuff, let alone state and local things, but this is a really cool story.

Things We Do for No Reason: Obtaining urine culture in older adults with delirium without signs or symptoms of urinary tract infection #idsky #utisky #medsky #bestshot

Not only that but urine culture without a urinalysis. Then antibiotics to treat the positive urine culture. But no evidence of a UTI. #IDsky

no better evidence that we’ve got a couple trillion-dollar squatters holding the internet back than the fact that a company with 20 employees can make a better platform than Meta

This explains why conservative fear-mongering is such an easy play in America. β€” Ppl believe trans ppl make up 21% of the population (Real number: 1%) β€” Ppl believe Black ppl make up 41% of the nation (real number 12%) β€” Ppl believe Jewish ppl make up 30% of the nation (Real number, 2%)

Anyone saying that stuff is a distraction simply isn’t affected by it. But, of course, they actually are. Because the whole point is that Republican are chopping away at each group individually before they get to the rest. You aren’t exempt. They are just making sure you stand by for your turn.

A thousand times THIS.

If Gaetz was applying for a job as a HIGH SCHOOL HISTORY TEACHER, there is no way in hell a school would hire him without reviewing all info about allegations he paid young women β€” including a 17-year-old β€” for sex & drugs But the Senate should confirm him for ATTORNEY GENERAL w/o the same info?
