A trove of nearly 3,200 disclosure records, which ProPublica made public this week, reveals a web of financial ties between Trump officials and the industries they help regulate.

We obtained the Dilley detention center’s 911 call logs. Among them are pleas for help for toddlers having trouble breathing, a pregnant woman who passed out and an elementary-school-aged girl having seizures.

A second email, this with a more substantial insight about "The Replication Crisis"... 1/5

One way to drastically improve the salmon and steelhead population is removing dams. To me, that seems nicer and more natural than mass killing beloved marine mammals, who are naturally entitled to eat fish.

Fake “cures” for #autism are very profitable for RFK Jr’s wellness friends. He does not want Americans to know how dangerous they are. #DrainTheSwamp

Heard an interview today where a guy said (and I'm paraphrasing) "LLMs have had years to train on every aspect of chess, read every book and article about it, review every match, but when they play, they STILL makes illegal moves. That tells you everything." And. Yup.

Still true. youtu.be/Dx1-F0j3CSQ?...

Judge people by how they treat children.

Hey @drpanmd.bsky.social I know you've got a lot on your plate right now but could you put in at word with the AAP that they should get off X and onto Bluesky?

Good. No decent organization should still be posting there.

My friend Sara posted this about the superb care her father received from with Alex Pretti Absolutely heartbreaking

Let me try to articulate what I think the central economic issue of the current moment really is.

I cannot recommend enough this essay by my ancestor. Written 150 years ago but applies equally to this morning: emersoncentral.com/texts/miscel...

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Our fundraiser for @drpanmd.bsky.social tonight started with a solemn moment of admiration for another healthcare worker who gave his life for American ideals today. Giving time & money seems like nothing in comparison. But it's *not* nothing. We need new people - new healers - representing us.

the perennial "is this a good replacement for twitter / can it become as big as twitter" discussion is so confused. hominids became bipedal about 7 million years ago. for most of the time since we did not have microblogging. it's not a necessity it's a habit, if it all goes away that's fine

Yes, the autistic Barbie is not perfect. Yes, it only includes one specific iteration of autism. But the way to get better representation of autistic girls (who get overlooked) is by starting somewhere and building on that. And if it sells, that encourages more www.usatoday.com/story/life/h...

Hannah Goetz was 17 when she had a double lung transplant. Her tacrolimus medication was supposed to help her body accept her new lungs. She died at just 21 years old.

rare to see an american politician speak in these terms and it rocks

Looking for a concrete thing you can do that beats fretting on social media? I suggest finding a local race and supporting it with an in-person event. I’m doing that for @drpanmd.bsky.social and it’s highly agreeable. drpanforcongress.com/news/dr-rich...

This is not about lazy dogs and quick brown foxes.

How could the United States save ~$184 billion per year on outpatient prescription medications? Use international reference pricing @pnas.org www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Pod on this coming Wednesday!

Fascinating study about substance use among #ActuallyAutistic people. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Pleased to be supporting @drpanmd.bsky.social and his congressional campaign. We need a good MD in the national discourse. Hosting a fundraiser in Davis in a few weeks. DM for details if interested!

Good advice. Your main feed has no algorithm other than who you follow, in chronological order. We collectively shape timelines by reskeeting interesting posts. Alt text & inclusion is important here. You will be reskeeted & shown to more users if you use alt text.

I was a student, journalist, and EMT at Brown. Heartbreaking and enraging to see them be the latest school shooting. The good people at @browndailyherald.bsky.social have better coverage than the NYT. www.browndailyherald.com/article/2025...

Boom times ahead for my liver transplant colleagues.

With grocery prices where they are, and SNAP benefits about to pause in the shutdown, I was glad to finally get around to setting up a monthly donation to my local food bank. yolofoodbank.org

Congratulations to Dr. Satyan Lakshminrusimh, our pediatrician-in-chief, who received the Virginia Apgar Award by the AAP. The award honors an individual whose career has had a sustained and profound influence on the welfare of newborn infants. 👶 health.ucdavis.edu/news/headlin...

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

There's a lot to not like about the world right now. But the doorbell just rang with a same-day free prescription delivery from my locally owned pharmacy. Small miracles exist. All is not lost. davispharm.com

Globally, roughly a third more power is being generated from the sun this spring than last. If this exponential rate of growth can continue, we will soon live in a very different world, @billmckibben.bsky.social writes.

I made this 9 years ago. Only gets more true.

This thread is absolutely right.

Man comes to the US from Lebanon. Starts out delivering pizzas, becomes a Nobel winning neuroscientist. Trump freezes his funding, he gets an email from China offering to move his lab “any city, any university I want" with guaranteed funding for 20 years. What are we doing?

The bottom line with the proposed cuts to NSF is to cut the number of working scientists and disappear opportunities to train new scientists. This is a PROPOSED budget to Congress. Call your reps.

"Roughly 1,500 babies have been born HIV-positive every day since January 21, because Musk cut off their mothers’ medication." prospect.org/power/2025-0...

This. But for everything

China just pledged $500M to the WHO—filling the void left by the U.S. pullback. As Beijing expands its global health influence, America’s retreat signals a dangerous step back from leadership on the world stage. So much for "Making America Great" www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

I commented. You should too!

Inspired by his clinical work and personal experience as a parent of an autistic child, Dr. Jonathan Kohler shares how PATH uses tools like social stories, pre-registration, and personalized care environments to reduce anxiety and improve medical outcomes. pedspandemicnetwork.org/ready-prep-g...

I just left a comment. If you are concerned that RFK Jr.'s FDA chief Marty Makary is limiting the Novavax COVID booster to those over 65 or with underlying conditions, and may do the same for Pfizer/Moderna as well, consider leaving a comment as well.

Autism care will be gutted by the new federal budget unless we make clear to our reps that that is not OK. New by me in the @sacbee.com www.sacbee.com/opinion/op-e...

Marco Buscaglia is the freelancer who admitted to using AI to complete the job in this report by @jasonkoebler.bsky.social for @404media.co. While Buscaglia is right to be embarrassed, I think this is more a story about structural sloppification than about the ethics of a single journalist.

Today is a red letter day in media history where a major newspaper managed to passive voice the actual publishing of itself

Mariannette Miller-Meeks won her seat in 2024 by 799 votes. That margin is 1.2% the number of people in her district she's taking health care away from. It's extremely unlikely she'll hold that seat in the 2026 midterm election. Maybe Mariannette shouldn't have been Trump's marionette.
