"Brent Chapman can see again after doctors pulled out one of his teeth, flattened it, drilled a hole in it, placed a lens inside and implanted the tooth in one of his eyes." Be aware: there are pictures.

Gun violence is an American scourge and the obvious solution is regulation of weapons of war, like in other countries. You don’t need a sniper rifle. And if you tell me it’s people not guns who kill people, fine, then stop selling weapons to violent people. Do something.

Oooh. Must add this to my to visit list.

The brilliant @lmbd1418.bsky.social has suggested people write to the Home Secretary Yvette Cooper re: my case. If you could spare five minutes, she's created a draft letter which you can use to send to [email protected]. I appreciate everyone's support. ❤️ docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Congratulations @bschillace.brandyschillace.com on this.

I had to step away from the computer for a few hours to clear my head. I came back to a slew of messages from people saying that they've written to the Home Secretary on my behalf. My goodness! Bluesky! You really come through for people at their lowest moments. Thank you for everything. 💙

RFK Jr. is considering firing all members of a highly influential advisory committee that offers guidance about preventive health services, such as cancer screenings, HIV prevention medications or tests for osteoporosis, according to two people familiar with the plan.

If you are a journalist concerned about deaths resulting from treatment in detention camps please reach out. We are likely missing deaths when people are released from custody before they die & deaths are not being reported to medical examiners or coroners. amp.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Of course I meant “essential reading” & “in forensic decisions” but autocorrect thinks it knows better. This is why AI & predictive text will never replace people. Errors were caught by my brilliant office manager - a human.

Essentially reading from @radleybalko.bsky.social Substack about cognitive bias is forensic decisions on manner of death. Everyone in forensics should be reading it. open.substack.com/pub/radleyba...

This is what happens when you elevate people with no understanding of science or medicine into positions of power over public health. Cases go up. So do costs. This isn’t a coincidence.

The other day TJ @workingstiff.bsky.social asked me how my day was & I told him I autopsied a decedent who was known to “smoke like a fish” which was my mash-up of “drink like a fish” (alcoholic) and “smoke like a chimney” (cigarettes). Given that smoked fish is a thing, it made sense to me.

I’m sorry for the long post but a lot of you have followed me for a long time, since 2016 when I was one of the first to repeatedly call out Trump for being a Russian asset. I don’t know how else to say this, as a person who has studied cults (wrote a bestseller about it) and totalitarian states.

The most inappropriate guffaw I got from TJ during the movie Black Mass was when after a particular brutal scene I whispered “That’s gonna be a three-day autopsy for somebody.” Garnered us a few dirty looks in the theater. youtu.be/0dI0eufNSqY?...

When the lifesaving and hard-to-detect drug is used to kill, doctors may be unprepared to consider the deaths homicides, which can complicate criminal cases.
