In the New Jersey governor’s race, the Democratic candidate, Mikie Sherrill, is polling well. So why is there so much anxiety? The journalist Molly Jong-Fast visited her campaign and found a major dis...

Physician here. I left last summer. We are at the “flight of the professional class” part of the descent into authoritarianism.

75% are considering leaving. Not in the process of leaving.

I’m not a researcher, just a community physician. I left last summer with my family. I wouldn’t have been able to if I had elderly parents to care for.

“These findings highlight that COVID-19, like many other infections in pregnancy, may pose risks not only to the mother, but to fetal brain development,”

And this is why we don’t stop research ! 💁‍♀️

Maine has a chance to do what Congress still hasn’t: pass real, common-sense gun safety.

Polls are razor-thin. This is where voters make the difference.

If you believe in red flag laws, now’s the time to speak up & share this.

AND watch Jordan Wood—a progressive voice that we need in the Senate.

Two years ago, my hometown of Lewiston was forever changed when a mass shooter killed 18 people across the city.

We can’t pretend it won’t happen again.

I’m urging Maine to vote YES on Question 2: a common sense red-flag law. #mesen

I "enjoy" this disconnect between tech titans claiming that AI will have us all eating pastries and working two days a week and the reality of firing people en masse while simultaneously supporting fascists who oppose universal basic income and are actively destroying the social safety net

Fortune headline: "Bill Gates says a 2-day work week is coming in just 10 years, thanks to AI replacing humans ‘for most things"

"Amazon is cutting 14,000 corporate jobs" says Verge headline

subheadline: "Some may ask why we’re reducing roles when the company is performing well,’ an executive admitted, blaming AI for the layoffs"

Even if you are leader of the free world, you don’t just get an MRI without a clear reason to do so.

There’s no such thing as a “screening” MRI.

Oof! I was paying -$1850/mo for myself and my 2 kids for a silver policy in CA. No subsidy. That was the cheapest policy for the benefit level. I knew Trump’s BBB and tariffs would wind up increasing even non subsidized policies. The premiums for employer sponsored insurance will also go up.

Here is the head of the FDA calling Omicron "omi-cold" and "nature's vaccine".

This was the worst variant for children, killing an average of 6 per day and sending nearly 1,000 to the hospital daily in January 2022.

I’m not sure I believe that the $130m donation is real, rather than that DoD thinks saying it is is the easiest way to deal with the situation where President Grandpa spewed some bullshit on camera about a $130m donation

I hope there is a candidate for ME Sen. that emerges who isn’t an elderly, long serving politician that want to keep the filibuster and is friends with the opposition candidate. Nor a former online edgelord who had no plan to own up to and explain his poor, past behavior. Mills and Platner ain’t it
