I’m watching myself on YouTube saying things I would never say. This is the deepfake menace we must confront | Yanis Varoufakis

I can think of a lot of things that would be better named in "honor" of DJT. I wish we still lived in a rural area. I would name our lagoon after him.

"Survival of the fittest". A Darwinesque vision undergirding the entire RFK Jr. antivax movement. A cult of death. In the Smokies on vacation decades ago, we walked an old graveyard. Many plots had parents accompanied by stone lambs. Babies they lost before they had a chance to live. RFK's vision.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

BILL BURR: “If someone’s working 160 hours a month and can’t make their rent, you’re not paying them enough. Maybe you should just be worth $900,000,000… How does a CEO take a f*cking 8 figure bonus and none of your employees have dental insurance?”

When my otherwise fully vaccinating parents say no to Beyfortus my brain explodes.

@jasonkander.bsky.social I’m thinking of you and all the Afghan families that you helped get established here. This is a tragedy and I fear it will be used to hurt those folks. We have no idea of the shooters motive but we do know that wars damage everyone involved no matter their nationality.

Clover says Happy Thanksgiving.

After two years, I finally unlocked and completed every level of Balatro. Now what?

When I see my young parents wasting their money on homeopathy, I get so angry. Allowing these companies to exist and prey upon people is so wrong.

I’m two gold stake decks away from completing Balatro. It’s been great fun but I’m really ready to be done.

1. As some Democrats have run from transgender rights, Zohran Mamdani is showing what so many others have lacked: courage to lead with his values over pandering to focus groups. The ad is one of the best things I've seen from a politician on transgender people. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Whitmer declares October “transgender empowerment month.” AG Nessel and the Michigan govt have yet to force state hospitals capitulating to Trump to return to providing trans youth care. I feel like this message is empty, and will only serve as right wing rage bait while delivering nothing.

1. A day after the Michigan church shooting, Republicans are silent after learning the shooter was a MAGA extremist. No investigations of Trump supporters as terrorists. No national conversations about the rights of cisgender men. The silence is deafening. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Being in the same room with 5,000 pediatricians is the best feeling! #peds

Ready! @glaucomflecken.bsky.social @pedsky.bsky.social

Prepping for @glaucomflecken.bsky.social speech at the AAP conference tomorrow!

Yesterday my daughter's cat wiggled out of her collar and left it on the floor all night. There was a momentary worry that all the cats got raptured. #catsky

1. Trump threatened every hospital that provides gender affirming care to transgender youth. Many complied and shut down their programs. Boston Children's Hospital didn't. They fought back and kept providing care. And now, they just beat Trump in court. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The Boston Children’s court victory makes Umich admin and other big hospitals look like active collaborators. #trans

As a sober individual, I feel like ice cream is justified today.

I’m having a great day.

My truck is never clean in the back. I’m totally fine with that. #dogsky

Every night. #catsky

It's pretty obvious that Ronald Reagan shot this country in the head with "supply side economics" 45 years ago and it's been running around like a dead chicken waiting to fall over ever since.

Antivaxxers are exhausting and things are getting so much worse. The misinformation is having a profound impact especially on younger parents new to learning about this topic. I don’t know how long I can keep working while watching a life’s work being ripped to shreds. #pedsky #medsky

Fucking cowards.

1. If you've scrolled social media lately, you've likely seem Democrats cheering for Gov. Gavin Newsom for trolling Trump relentlessly. You've also likely seen trans people terrified of a Newsom 2028 run. I explain why trans people are not feeling Newsom. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I've been to a lot of protests but have never had the opportunity to burn a flag. I'd like to see a wave of U.S. flag burnings on social media and I'm happy to participate.

Never ever

How it started…How it’s going.

Enjoy these beautiful Sandhill cranes. These guys made my day.

Happy #caturday. Meet Clover.

Pediatric care in urgent cares and now even over the phone is so substandard. Some latest versions: Swimmer's ear treated with 5 days of azithromycin. Classic Hand, Foot and Mouth disease treated over the phone with Amoxicillin. It's just bad medicine. Wasteful and harmful.

I’ve asked this question of several people this week. “What is the number of cats that puts a person in crazy cat person territory??”

Trump’s charlatan HHS Scty RFK, Jr., just canceled the regular meeting of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, senior advisors who make sure we all can get access to prevention services like early cancer screening & to medications that prevent life-threatening diseases. Who voted for this?

House is stuck. Awe.... poor babies.

Boots enjoying his #caturday

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done. My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it. I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

Pistachio, Boots, Sable, and Clover. 8 week old babies my daughter found behind a dumpster this week. Happy #caturday !

Kitten perch.

Breaking: Transgender people lose Skrmetti, SCOTUS rules that Tennessee's law banning gender affirming care is not subject to heightened scrutiny. I'll be reading and reporting more fully today. Terrible day for transgender people. Full decision here: www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

The AAP, ACP, AAFP and ACOG should just get together and reconstitute the fired ACIP committee as an independent group. #pediatrics #pedsky #medsky

On balance, parent social media groups are hurting kids health. When I I was dealing with the random grandparent spouting bad advice it was one thing. Now every whackadoodle parenting theory never dies and new ones appear all the time. It’s endless and it’s making people worse parents. #pedsky
