I keep getting ads for companies that prescribe GLP-1s dangerously because I click on them to report them to the FDA lol

The state of Ohio took my tax return for who knows what and hangs up on you if you call to find out

NIH cancer research is the reason my dad is alive

A plant: exists Me and my mom: time to reference a Cold War novel

Was so pumped to go back to school, had everything ready to go, and the program got shut down 🙃

24 days until trip ☺️

Our trip to the Uk is really coming together and I’m so excited

The immigrant feel when you see something spelled in British English and realize it wasn’t that you didn’t know how to spell it it’s that you learned to spell it in a different country (I did have to think about realise and learnt)

Once, my beloved’s life, our family life depended (70%) on an NIH trial. The headlines about not being able to procure supplies as the result of a pause in external communications is giving me feelings. I don’t understand the actual effects. I do know, bodily, the fear. www.cnn.com/2025/01/24/h...

Extremely exciting events this weekend: got some pork from my parents, had a crepe night with Jacob, made some REALLY good soup. I’m so old

Trump really said “I will simply sign an executive order that makes it so intersex people don’t exist” as though that’s how biology works

While I’m very impressed by my kittens fetch skills, I’m not thrilled that he has to display them every night at 1:30 am

Just had a stomach bug for the first time and tbh interest in cruises gone. Never tryna go anywhere with an increase norovirus risk ever thanks

Schrödinger’s wedding Until its surface tension breaks upon the steward's tongue - dissipating sweetness, sweat of vineyard labourers, honey of the sun-ripened harvest - it is neither water nor wine; until the jars are filled to overflowing, until a drop is spilled, staining the ground with…

I've heard many anti-harm reductionists say" naloxone enables addiction" 🤯. Wrong! Naloxone enables people to live and try recovery again. This is a vital harm reduction tool that's saved thousands of lives. Everyone should carry it and know how to use it. People can't recover when they're gone.

Just finished my sister’s Christmas present. Probably biggest thing I’ve knit

Cleveland PD really does not give a shit about traffic laws

Remembering the time a guy came to the pharmacy to get tamiflu for himself and a bunch of other people and told me his whole tour bus had the flu and I asked who he was touring with but it was just him. He was the famous guy. Couldn’t HIPAA this if I tried because I don’t remember his name

Smallpox was a devastating illness, but it was also vulnerable to human ingenuity because: 1. It only infected people...it couldn't hide in animals. 2. It's a DNA virus, which makes its genome much more stable, and its mutation rate slower. 3. It was very clear when someone had smallpox.

Sometimes you gotta take a nap on your brothers butt

My parents got me this cool Christmas gift and it sends me the funniest angle pictures (left)

Human to human transmission hasn’t occurred yet, but if more and more people get infected with bird flu, the more likely human to human transmission will occur. The virus has entered and mutated in a Louisiana man. Stay safe everyone!

Fentanyl exposure is not a thing unless you smoke it, inject it, snort it, or swallow it. You simply can't overdose by touching it or by staring at it. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Our family is evolving strangely

#homeless #unhoused #harmreduction

Us: the lab is 80 degrees can we do some thing about that? The boss lady: there’s gatorades in the fridge help yourself The fridge: is empty

your tired, your poor (in health)

I love that my cats are silly little guys but I wish the silliness understood bedtimes

Crazy that if you google Andrew Wakefield (I wanted to see if he’s still alive. He is) it says “British activist” instead of just “liar” or “fraudster” or similar

A perfect boy

I think America’s idea of socialized healthcare is that it could never be put into place we could never change the system and my favorite response is my granddad watched the NHS get put into place in the UK. It was this lifetime. It’s possible

My ode to him

A dude at a bar once said he wouldn’t send his kids to college because it turns them into socialists and when I told my mom she said “I think we sent all of you to college socialists already”

Seeing news about anti choice people makes me so emotional because dear god the 3 days I knew I was pregnant and didn’t know if it was progressing were the scariest days of my life

Measles was declared ERADICATED in the US in 2000. The anti vax movement brought back an eradicated disease

I love my husband and our story but it is FRUSTRATING that it was shaped by the broken US healthcare system

Health insurance industry PR is working overtime right now diverting blame to physicians for claim denials and rising costs. I feel compelled to remind everybody that Optum (UHC) is the largest employer of physicians in the US. We have never had less power in healthcare than we do right now.
