No more ableist environment than in medical school.

That needs to be fixed before an entire class of unseen, unheard patients can receive equitable treatment & therapies.

@georgetakei Let me introduce you to #Republican State Rep Bob Young of NE #Ohio, who is currently defending himself in a defamation suit due to falsely accusing his Democratic opponent in 2022 of domestic abuse. He has since been arrested and is facing actual charges of domestic violence, himself. Yes, every #GOP accusation is always a confession.

Doctors Have a Moral Obligation to Disobey Abortion Bans — Academic medical centers’ lackluster defense of abortion access is moral malpractice. It’s time for civil disobedience.

How dare Ukraine be given cluster weapons to use on our military like we use on their civilians…..

Read an article today about why Americans think alcohol has health benefits and it's apparently another "well the French are healthy and they do X so it's healthy to do X."

So here's your periodic reminder that France (and Italy, and Sweden, and Japan, and basically every country you've seen in a "this country is so healthy, what's their secret?" headline) has universal health care.

The secret is access to health care. It's always access to health care.

Note about 2 women kissing in #StarTrek #DS9

Steve Oster recollected that a man called the show and complained, "You're ruining my kids by making them watch two women kiss like that." It was a production assistant who took the call. After hearing the man's complaint, the PA asked if the man would've been okay with his kids seeing one woman shoot the other. When the man said he would be okay with that, the PA said, "You should reconsider who's messing up your kids."

I drove by this synagogue the other day to renew my car tag.

They had a barricade with armed guards checking parents coming to pickup their kids from camp.

Disgusting that they have to go through this every day because of some #Nazi POS.
