Heading into 2026 with a new road ahead. Leaning into joy and service.

Thank you West Coast Health Alliance for speaking truth to power!

Caring about your fellow humans means following sound science. Listen to the pediatricians and infectious disease specialists!

In the darkness, find the beauty, then rise.

We are a rogue state, run by a dictator, and the international community should treat us as such including all appropriate economic and diplomatic sanctions

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

The last three 49ers QBs to throw 5+ TDs in a single game: ◽️ Brock Purdy ◽️ Steve Young ◽️ Joe Montana

In other news, old man Rivers, please beat the Seahawks. Niners, please somehow beat the Titans. Come on. Thank you.

They gotta put Duke in the Playoff if they win this one.

DUKE UPSETS VIRGINIA AND WINS THE ACC CHAMPIONSHIP IN OT 😱

DUKE FOOTBALL WINS THE ACC

DUUUUUKEE!!!!

The president fails to realize how deeply Somali Americans love this country. We are doctors, teachers, and elected leaders working to make our country better. We will not let Trump intimidate or debilitate us. My op-ed: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/04/o...

Approximately 27% of adults in the US and Canada report having ever used #cannabis for medical purposes. This Review summarizes current evidence about the therapeutic use of cannabis and #cannabinoids in adults. ja.ma/43QKhdx

Wasn’t the prettiest win! Go 49ers!

“Survival a poison but necessary on my tongue; my life now a memento mori.”

Facts…

One more for good measure. Thanks APA.

Vaccines save lives. Vaccines cause adults. Vaccines are safe.

Our communities are being devastated by ICE. We are seeing patients with cancer avoiding coming in for appointments due to fear of abduction in Portland. We need our collective voices to speak to the outrage of these injustices.

Powerful reminder that we are one beloved community, and that weaponizing aid resources harms our most vulnerable community members.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

Let’s Go Duke!!!

Beautiful fall week in Portland!

May we listen to the cries of this world: Avalokiteshvara, She who hears the cries of suffering in our world May we respond without hesitation: Samantabhadra, She who enacts wisdom and compassionate activity.

The rain always clears. Make room for the 🌈 . Diastole.

A couple of weeks ago, Trump struggled with a broken umbrella as he boarded Air Force One. Let me tell you how we got to this point — and the tragic downfall of the noble umbrella. 🧵

Sunrise from Portland, OR today.

Today, Trump's trying to make us comfortable with masked agents on the streets. Tomorrow, Trump's looking to leverage this power, take advantage of our elections, and scare voters away. We must call this what it is: a power grab that echoes the rise of authoritarian regimes.

Mac Jones guts it out to stun the Rams. @mattmaiocco.bsky.social delivers the takeaways from the 49ers' thrilling OT win ⬇️

What a stand. What a game by a very depleted 49ers team.

Mac Jones. Saleh. Go 49ers!

A gentleman’s doink. A nice little kiss off the upright.

No thoughts. Just vibes.

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

The American College of Cardiology issued new guidance Tuesday that recommends adults with heart disease get vaccinated against respiratory illnesses, including RSV, COVID-19, pneumococcal infection, shingles and influenza. https://to.pbs.org/4fV4L9H

We could have had cancer vaccines, and instead the United States will contribute nothing whatsoever to mRNA research, condemning millions of people worldwide to unnecessary illness and death

On Juneteenth, we commemorate the news of emancipation finally reaching America's last enslaved people, and we recommit to fighting to deliver the true promise of America for all, even against right-wing backlash.

On Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom and recommit ourselves to the work that remains undone. We remember that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope for tomorrow’s light.

BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.

The ATS condemns the HHS Sec. Kennedy’s unilateral decision to dismiss all members of the CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). This decision undermines decades of medical and scientific that have been vital to safeguarding public health. apnews.com/article/kenn...

Hegseth wants to rename the USNS Harvey Milk because it doesn’t fit the “warrior ethos” he’s pushing. He served, was forced out for being gay, and still came back to fight for the country that tried to erase him. THAT is a warrior.
