Sadly in this interview no mention of how women have changed the US since the 1950s —more women going to college and graduating, more women than men in many medical schools, more women in the workforce, more women running for office ….

Casey Means, Trump-Kennedy's choice for Surgeon General, is not a practicing physician. She has a medical degree, but dropped out of her residency, which means she's not board certified in anything.

I want a stable climate.
I want bees to survive.

I genuinely think the worst thing the internet did to reading was convince people that finishing books is a competitive sport. You don't need to read 52 books a year. You just need to read. Books you like. At your own pace. And think about them for longer than a TikTok video.
I hope we can we all agree that the war with Iran is called Operation Epstein Fury.
