So much has been going on, and when it’s safe to update you all on what’s happening, I promise I will. In the meantime, I just stopped in to let y’all know I had my lumbar fusion surgery yesterday. In a lot of pain today, but it seems surgery went well based on reports from staff.

The Brits are savage 🔥

Ontario or Halifax? If Ontario, where?

If you see this, quote with the energy you bring to BlueSky. I know, I'm never here... But I think of y'all often.

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

Gutting the CDC right as we’re on the cusp of major outbreaks of transmissible diseases is a very bad idea.

Not back-back, but I thought I'd say hi. Hope you all are doing well. Cheers,
