The lack of data presented regarding baseline cancer risk limits interpretation. The online comments (supplemental material) suggest a far lower risk. Interesting, nonetheless.

Remember during oral argument on the presidential immunity case when conservative justices scoffed at and mocked the hypothetical that a president with immunity could just start killing whoever he wanted and there was nothing that could be done if he has immunity?

People should support Russell Crowe’s new movie by converging in large groups, like a flash mob, and chanting the name of the movie. Maybe somewhere there is already media attention, like in front of an ICE building:

“Nuremberg! Nuremberg! Nuremberg!”

Tylenol is only toxic in doses large enough to overwhelm liver enzymes. Doses on the label are not a threat unless you have end-stage (transplant necessary) disease.

Hey ButterflyIQ ultrasound - are you seriously bricking my perfectly good first-gen device and asking me to buy another one and the same email? Forget it. No more recommendations for your products. #ButterflyIQ

Butterfly iQ™ and iQ Vet™ were engineered for the mobile platforms and connectors of 2018. As Apple and Android move forward, continuing to support these devices would introduce risks to security, compatibility, and patient safety. That’s why support for your probe will officially end on December 31, 2025.

As part of the phase-out of the original Butterfly iQ and iQ Vet, your app will soon display persistent banners (as of version 2.44) alerting you that support for your device will end on December 31.

After this date, your probe may still display an image, but you will no longer be able to capture or upload images or cines to the Butterfly Cloud, and it will not be supported for patient care.

Now is the time to take advantage of our limited-time trade-in offers*:

I saw the video, I forgot autoplay was on.

What dawned on me after the initial shock subsided is that children suffer these SAME injuries in their classrooms.

Other children watch their classmates suffer the same injuries as Charlie Kirk.

No child should experience that. Ever.

Regulate guns.
