The good news is i saved you 60 billion dollars. The bad news is that is a typo i saved you 600 dollars and also your plane is falling out of the sky

Novel idea:

Yes, we let a rich idiot nobody elected destroy the entire government, but it was that or make rich people pay taxes so that poor people could go to the doctor

Hey #idsky - took my kid to a reptile expo today and she fell in love with holding mice (?rats). Said one was anxious and clawed/maybe bit her skin. Sanitized then washed, looks fine a few hours later. Thoughts?

Now more than ever.

I needed to read this tonight

Agreed.

The US gets a massive amount of its fruit and vegetables from Mexico. To Make America Healthy Again, we will use tariffs to raise the price of those fruits and vegetables by 25%. by Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Democratic lawmakers need to understand something: Imagine your house is on fire. Fire truck shows up. Firefighters get out. They look at the fire, then at you, and say: "Such a fire is a grave threat. This house will not sustain." And just stand there. This is how many of you are coming across.

Right now I’m just a dozen coping mechanisms in a trench coat

Opinion | The way to avoid tragedies like yesterday's crash is to use hiring practices that put only the most qualified people in important federal jobs. by Pete Hegseth and RFK Jr.

Know your rights!

If you're struggling financially due to government fuckery or for any reason really and you need infant formula talk to your pediatrician we can hook you up and don't like to ask questions.

Please believe this …

The total research expenditure of Penn State was $1.4b last year. Much of that was federal money that came into the state -- paid wages and state income taxes, rents, property taxes, sales taxes. State representatives might want to consider what freezing federal funds does to their constituents.

“We need to close our borders to keep dangerous criminals off our streets.” *Releases 1,500 dangerous criminals on to our streets.*

It's Denali. Mountains have to keep the name that's on their birth certificate.

In the first two days of this presidency, we have a delusional billionaire de-facto cabinet member giving a Nazi salute and a sitting GOP senator calling for the deportation of a minister preaching about mercy for the vulnerable. Super work, MAGA voters. Hope this was worth owning the Libs.

Can a headline alone be eligible for a Pulitzer?

Get in losers, we’re making America healthy again

Hey #MedSky I'm writing a long-form piece on how bad prior authorization has become, and how burdensome it is on patients and docs. Can you share: —A story (without PHI) —The amount of time/$$ you spend —The most ridiculous thing you've had to argue for —etc (And please share this post)

This is Gracie. She went for the most magical car ride last night. The whole world twinkled like it was excited to see her. 13/10

Destroy this myth. Please share if you have visited and researched in a library this past year! RT And give a shout out to your favorite library you have ever visited.

Universal healthcare? No thanks, I don't want to pay for other people's health care. I like private insurance, where I pay for other people's healthcare AND for the salaries of bloodsucking middlemen whose entire purpose is telling me “No” when I need medicine.

Reminder: Health insurance companies don't provide healthcare. They profit from gatekeeping access to healthcare. Doctors, nurses, and hospitals provide healthcare.

Apropos of nothing: we actually don’t need for-profit publicly traded health insurance companies. They add nothing, they only siphon value away from the system and into shareholder pockets

You ever think about how just one division of a “health insurance provider” could have an investors’ meeting in Manhattan to discuss the $281 billion in revenues they’re hoarding while so many Americans struggle to access basic healthcare

Finally that time of year

$5 per tooth!!!

Wait am I using this fight to distract me from the election? No, that can’t be right ??

Please tell people I'm here. It's very important for me to get a lot of followers because I crave attention.

Toxicologist here for any fluoride concerns! The amount of fluoride added to water to prevent tooth decay is so minuscule that—no matter your age, size, or health status—you would die from water poisoning long before you could ever even start getting toxicity from fluoride. Fluoridated water is safe
