@badtux H2O No

@dmacphee "Celebrity doctor" says it all, there.

@tangledwing Fascinating research.

@UP8 they had jolly well better be supportive of trans people then.

@HollyCo26588808 Amazing!

And while in KY legislators would "prefer" white medical doctors, another issue is keeping those, along with others, in the US. > Waves of American doctors and nurses leave their practices and head to Canada to avoid U.S. political climate https://irjci.blogspot.com/2026/03/waves-of-american-doctors-and-nurses.html#medicine #health #BoycottUSA #ThisIsAmerica

This NYT article from several months ago is also good for additional details.https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/16/style/cindy-eckert-pink-pill-addyi.html

@BenjaminHan yikes! I have been wondering if there might be more negative side effects than advertised. Hunger is pretty core to homeostasis. So if you fiddle with hunger, it seems likely that some things could get out of balance.

@Tony I love tacos.

@scottwilson When I was in PA training, I experimented with using LLMs for studying.We had a lecture on blood clotting medications. Can't remember the details, but I asked ChatGPT about using medication in a situation where the blood is too thin... It recommended to use a blood thinning medication in this scenario. My theoretical patient would have fucking died!!! I stopped using it after this.I'd like to say LLMs have moved forward since, but glue pizza and rock eating proves otherwise .

@ProPublica “He said such member-to-member activity is protected by the First and 14th amendments.” In the MAGAsphere whenever someone is caught engaging in illegal or unethical activity the US Constitution is somehow the ultimate defense. I hate it so much.

@petersuber Who needs health research anyway, Peter, I ask ironically.

It's an absolute indictment of what the IDR process has become — and an illustration of how every incentive in American health care has unintended consequences that allow people to make tons of money off of nothing.If you get paywalled, STAT is running a 50% off sale through tomorrow; consider getting a subscription! https://marketing.statnews.com/stat-plus-march26

"But what this person didn’t understand is that queer #scientists are constantly weighing their personal safety versus career opportunities.Each time we apply for new positions, attend #conferences, or #travel for fieldwork, we have to consider whether these choices are safe."

So how would you use these?As a poultice? Salve?What kinds of conditions? Localized inflammation? Poison/bite? Cyst?I'm sure each has it's own benefit. Just curious.

@ScienceDesk @ieeespectrum The #Boeing 737 MAX8 was ‘simulated’ plenty. Just saying. ‍️ https://mitsloan.mit.edu/teaching-resources-library/boeings-737-max-8-disasters

@PrivacyDigest Third-world shitholes don't need expert panels.

It sounds very esoteric to me how the users talk about it, like energizing water with different crystals and every color is supposed to have a different effect.

@petersuber The tension here is real — open science depends on open access, but 'controlled access' proposals often expand quietly once established. The country-based access restrictions are particularly concerning: scientific collaboration should be built on trust and verification, not geography. Worth watching closely as this sets a precedent.
