    Suddenly I get all this official (!) government email branded with “Dr. Oz.” I suppose it's meant to remind me that we're now ruled by charlatans, quacks, and other criminals.

      @gleick I found the same email in my inbox a few minutes ago. I thought, "...at least I'm not getting medicare.gov Dr. Phil emails about mental health." That'll be the next one.

        @gleick it may also be a licensing scheme where he’s paid for the use of his name.

          @gleick Doesn't solve the root problem but I just unsubscribed from this nonsense.

          I hope my doing so doesn't eff up my receiving important personal Medicare account mailings.

          All's well that ends well.

            @gleick eat 6-7 servings a day of red meat, 1-2 of whole grains

              It's enough to make you seek reassurance ... by heading over to the CDC site where you can learn how we're winning the war on vaccines.

                The very first email I got from them, a few months back, I scoured the text til I found the tiny ‘unsubscribe’ link before hitting it. (Then I cussed a blue streak & ranted about hearing ANYTHING from this idiot for the next 30 minutes)

                Since then, no more emails from him.

                  @gleick this feels like a prop from a 90s dystopian comedy about 2026
