Three orders make that much difference

‼️‼️ Newly released emails show the FBI spent almost $1 million in overtime analyzing the Epstein files as part of an effort dubbed the “Special Redaction Project."

TAPS SCREEN For like the zillionth time: Libraries are FREE for you, but WE still get compensated for our work!!

What a beautiful gift this is. Don’t mind telling you I teared up a little.

nice

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

The HPV vaccine is so good that opportunities to teach colposcopy and LEEP are decreasing because there is far less need. Yay!

“Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything” - no translation needed. “I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy, he’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.” — no translation needed

Seriously Hallmark/Lifetime, etc, I'M RIGHT HERE. Just put me in the game. I can level up realism without sacrificing romantic storyline. Hand is out, tag me. Doesn't even have to be my REALISTIC ALREADY-WRITTEN MEDICAL ROMANCE STORIES. I'll just provide a consult for the plot. Like a script doctor.

Hubs reading me a blurb from a new movie: Hubs: "In this rural town, the newly-hired cardiologist working an ER shift--" Me: I'm going to stop you right there Hubs: ? Me: I've never seen a cardiologist "working an ER shift." Ever Hubs: You should just make medical stuff up in your books Me:

Does he think this somehow ... helps Trump's situation? My dude, if you have sex with a minor then that is by definition statutory rape. There is no presumption of ability to consent when an adult entices a child into sex. Why the hell would he write this (much less think it)? For real?

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Whether it’s Barack Obama, appearing in a tan suit or Donald Trump appearing 1700 times in Jeffrey Epstein‘s emails, both presidents made some highly controversial appearances.

But the double standard looks steadily less defensible today.

App muse fuming: "Jesus Christ, people! What does it take to get a 5 star rating around here? Turn water into wine? Maybe create an all-you-can-eat fish and bread buffet? Seriously!"

You know what's also not "necessary, safe and effective"? This waste of oxygen pudknocker. Listen dude, I believe Mexican phrase is: 'you look prettier when you are quiet'

Fox "news" lies? Hold on while I pretend to clutch my pearls. Jk, we knew this all along because the footage was old. Some people are dumb enough to believe any fiction that news entertainment channel airs.

This is what we need to be demanding and holding our elected officials feet to the fire to get!

Tennessee’s 7th can keep feeding GOP cruelty or help real people. This one seemingly small election is going to decide if people starve (SNAP benefits), live (ACA subsidies) and protect pedophiles (Epstein). This is not about (D) vs (R) it's your moment in history to stand up for what is right.

Last night, the Trump Administration sent a letter suggesting Wisconsin should return our FoodShare payments. My response ⬇️

The GOP gave tax cuts of $2.3 trillion to the rich, but believe food & healthcare is something the country can't afford. A political party who forces people to go w/o food & healthcare, so the wealthy don't have to pay taxes, is morally bankrupt. #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

So, this is a problem ... how?

I had my performance review a week ago. (fam med academia) Dept chair: Each performance area is ranked 1 to 7 Me: weird but ok DC: You got all 7's except for ... Me: 🤔 DC: ... 5 for research Me: (who has proudly done ZERO research, I just teach doctoring) I'm surprised it's that high 😬 DC: 🤦‍♂️ Me: 🫡

All I'm saying is that it is about f$%king time that good overcame evil so completely. Claw it back, folks. Keep running. Keep voting. Good over evil.

Based on tonight, the take-home message for future elections seems to be twofold: 1) Vote in such numbers that even Fox can't spin it 2) Vote in such numbers that even Trump/GOP can't cheat with it Just overwhelm the evil, basically

Dems in ARRAY

YES!

The fascists are not inevitable. They're not unstoppable. They're not all powerful. They want you to think that, but millions turned out last month to call their bluff. And millions turned out today to claim our power. We will win.

Hot Christmas Cowboy by Eve Gaddy is out today! To Letty, Riley was the ultimate sexy Montana cowboy, but since losing her parents at 17, she won't let anyone too close. She proposes they date until New Year’s.... monkeylink.co/037300 #readztule #releaseday #christmas #books

If you can't win... then cheat 👇👇👇

study after study after study shows that literally just handing people money and telling them "do what you want with this" reduces homelessness, increases food security for children, makes it more likely people will find and retain jobs.1

Right? because open enrollment goes from now-ish until December 31 -- delay for another month and it'll just be entropy pushing the evil across the finish line. BTW, doctor here and I *cannot wait* to see how much this hurts my already at-risk patients. (*sarcasm intended) Damn Johnson+GOP to hell

Here's why: If Johnson waits til Jan, then ppl have to commit to new godawful premiums or choose not to have insurance. Thus, Johnson/GOP effectively torpedo ACA & screw over millions of ppl, w/o having to take a vote that would prove just how much they hate 99% of the folks they purportedly serve.

Hotel stay + airfare for residency interviews are nearly impossible on a resident salary, I applied for a short term loan and was denied. Anyone helps: venmo jbrisbon1181 or zelle or gofund.me/d7b1c24db Please share and donate so I can match into a categorical program #medsky #urosky

“A 2025 study in The Lancet Infectious Diseases has further clarified matters, concluding that children and adolescents face a significantly higher risk of various long-COVID symptoms after reinfection with SARS-CoV-2. In fact, a second infection doubles the long-COVID risk for a child.” 😢

Don't mean to brag but I got a totally legit email saying I was going to be featured in "Women of the World" bc of my books. Only a *nominal fee* to be featured So like, the part where I literally saved lives x 20 yrs = NOT "Women of the World"? Or did your little AI program not scrape that part?

Okay, help me out with this one. Was 'immediately carry out attacks' part of the no-shooting agreement, or did I miss something? Because 'immediately carry out attacks' sounds like a NOT-ceasefire. Just a human being who is a non-diplomat, spitballing here.

Apropos of nothing in particular: As a physician, I sometimes have to convince pts to let me do a Mini-cog test to evaluate memory/dementia. Never have I lied and said it's an IQ test. Bc if I ever floated it as an IQ test, even pts with dementia wouldn't be so stupid to believe it was an IQ test.

This is quite an astute analysis. Recommended reading for everyone.

Your reminder how how shit works here.

very thoughtful thread on what is needed
