Florida drivers are truly the worst. I plan to launch a zipper merge campaign before I leave here. I swear to god.

I've said this before, but I feel pretty strongly that the building of concentration camps - and now, the inevitable disappearance of 1,800 people from those camps - is the biggest story in American public health right now that isn't being treated like one

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

It is really disheartening to see the men who are in charge of science and healthcare in the United States stand before us all and spew misinformation about autism. To claim that genetic background isn’t the overwhelming contributor to autism is egregious.

Tried to get my real ID. I had my license, my SS card and my birth certificate. I was not allowed to get my real ID because my birth name is different than my married name. Now I have to go dig up a marriage certificate. You know who wouldn’t have to do this? A man. Never change your last name.

More intense future wildfires, fueled by further climate change, could lead to 70,000 deaths from smoke exposure a year, according to a new study.

Sloppy, unprepared, and incompetent. They don’t even understand VFC or CHIP or know what their votes mean. Complete amateur hour. God bless the CDC scientists who have to endure this #ACIP

Special thanks to the @CDC scientists for great presentations, excellent scientific reviews, and enormous patience in the face of an enormously challenging and upsetting day at what used to be the ACIP

For those attending #ISTSS2025! My list of recs for food, beverages, and activities in Bmore. Wish I could be there. 💔😩

“Storytellers broaden our minds: engage, provoke, inspire, and ultimately, connect us.” - Robert Redford

Far as I can tell, Robert Redford was: * successful at everything he tried * genuinely intelligent & insightful * desired by women * envied by men * an absolute mensch to everyone he dealt with * a tireless, lifelong philanthropist ... and he died peacefully in his sleep. 10/10 life. No notes.

If someone’s not mourning the death of Robert Redford in a manner that’s consistent with your views, make sure you set up a database, call their employer, and get them fired.

Yup! Our Biology teacher would force us to watch a graphic birth right before Prom weekend so that "teen girls" wouldn't make a "dumb decision to go and get pregnant." He also once said "evilution" which like, how are you teaching Biology? Also, another teacher would make jokes about gay people.

we in the ridiculously attractive community take the loss of robert redford, one of the finest among us, especially hard. please, check in on your ridiculously attractive friends today

A movie star to his core, Robert Redford has died after a visionary career in cinema, including founding the Sundance Institute that transformed the market for independent films.

The fact the hideocious ginger menace is still stumping (ha!) around and the ginger god, aka greatest hunk of all time, died today feels like too much, y'all. #RobertRedford

RIP to Robert Redford, one of the greatest babes of all time

Probably like many people my age, my earliest familiarity with Robert Redford is that he was the guy my mom would drool over.

Robert Redford used his immense fame to shape the entire landscape of independent cinema. He was a true titan.

Men aren’t hot like Robert Redford anymore

Forever hotter than the sun. RIP Robert Redford.

The fact my entire timeline is currently not devoted to Robert Redford right now is a problem for me. Literal legend. Lifelong hunk. Today is a real bummer.

RIP Robert Redford, a Hollywood icon and GIF legend.

NOOOOOOO. CAN'T WE HAVE JUST A FEW GOOD DAYS EVER?! This hurts my heart. 😭 Whyyyyyyy?! RIP to the ginger god.

So glad Stephen Graham took home the acting Emmy. His performance in episode 4 is a thing of genius and heartbreak. It will live forever in my mind rent free. The series itself is truly incredible and should be required viewing. Young Owen in episode 3, *shivers*, chilling. All wins so deserved!

Happy 5th Birthday to our boy! We love you so much. Motherhood can be captured pretty well by the Stephen Sondheim song "Being Alive." You made me alive when you came along, my sweetest boy. Thank you for the honor of my lifetime. You vary my days in every possible way that makes life better. ❤️

The Press decided Biden was senile when he mixed up the similar sounding names of the Mexican President & the Egyptian President. Trump saying that 90% of Americans died last year is fine though.

And what’s wrong with our society. We should start demanding that MSNBC rehire Dowd and Fox fire Kilmeade. We’ve got to rage about this.

What the fuck. Calling for mass murder of unhoused people? What the hell is wrong with these people?

📱EMA is increasingly used in intervention studies to acquire a more fine-grained and ecologically valid assessment of change. But EMA is relatively burdensome. What's the added value? We tried to address this question in our new paper now out @jmirpub.bsky.social www.jmir.org/2025/1/e69297 1/n

They lost loved ones in 9/11. We invited them to leave a voicemail in their memory.

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory? Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

The Education Department announced its intention Wednesday to end grant funding for minority-serving institutions, a move affecting hundreds of colleges that serve a disproportionate number of students from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups.

The problem with allowing guns everywhere is that no one is safe anywhere.

Killing people we disagree with is wrong in every way, whether it’s Melissa Hortman or Charlie Kirk. This is especially true in a country awash with guns and run by fascists looking to amplify their already militarized policies. No thoughts and prayers. Down with fascism and up with gun control.

Look, I absolutely detest Charlie Kirk and his appalling opinions, but I extend to him and his family all the courtesy that he has denied others and hope he recovers. Shooting people in cold blood is bad. Always. Evil and bad. And none of us want to live in a world where that's celebrated.

Good. As they should. Perhaps that shame will deter them from following illegal orders.

I am glad my Supervisor of Elections sent this message today: All vote-by-mail ballot requests in Florida expired on December 31, 2024, due to a change in Florida Law. Voters must make a new vote-by-mail ballot request for each election cycle.

When someone is having a mental health crisis, please do not call the police. 1 in 4 people killed by police are, or are perceived to be, experiencing a mental health crisis. A person with unmet mental health needs is 16 times more likely to be killed by the police. Cops don’t keep us safe.

Still reeling over the fact that states like TX, FL, and WY have so utterly decimated people's faith in their ability to support the lives and careers of young people that a *majority* of professors in these states are likely providing career advice to graduates to leave the state.

Happy Birthday, California.   Here’s to 175 years of always setting the pace.

Some VERY good news on a Tuesday!!! YES SHE DID. 🎉😍🙌🏼

This is a BFD

Today, I was joined by organizations representing 100,000 doctors & medical experts. They know — I know — that vaccines work, and have saved millions of lives. We cannot allow Sec. Kennedy or anyone else to undermine faith in science and put the health of our children at risk.

Bernie: We are now witnessing a full blown war on science, on public health, and on truth itself...Vaccines work. Period.

It should not be up to John Oliver to be publicly making the argument that university presidents should be making loudly & collectively on the news & in front of the US Capitol every day.
