It makes sense that blood platelets would have serotonin receptors because it’s a good way to distribute serotonin throughout your body! But it’s pretty fucking bad design for people who bleed regularly!!

Anyway this tidbit is why SSRI’s can increase bleeding risk!! They inhibit serotonin uptake, which messes with blood platelet function, and have potential anticoagulant impacts!

My poor psychiatrist every time he offhandedly mentions something sciencey I interrupt his thought so I can ask a million questions about it.

I don’t see “that’s how it works” as a helpful, objective, or even shrewd perspective.
My politic is less cynical than anything a progressive or moderate has ever presented because I am informed.
My disillusionment with this system is aspirational because I believe in better and greater things.

And yes, if we're gonna kick Schumer and Gillibrand and a bunch of other terrible Ds to the curb, groups like the @nywfp.bsky.social and @socialists.nyc and @bkindivisible.bsky.social are gonna be key. Find your organizing home, friends, and let's do this!

Also too: doing stuff with the @nywfp.bsky.social is FUN! I volunteered to march with the NYWFP during the West Indian Day parade and took the photos in this thread. Just an incredible experience. You can do that kind of thing, too! Join 'em! blacksky.community/profile/did:...

What I'm saying is that the @nywfp.bsky.social cares about the policies and people (all of us!) that I care about, makes savvy political decisions, and get things done. Join 'em, friends in NYC!

Since we had ranked choice voting in the mayoral primary, the @nywfp.bsky.social organized a slate of Ds that it endorsed - instead of just endorsing one candidate.
This was CRITICAL for letting Mamdani and Lander team up, for example, and set the stage for Mamdani's win.

Mayoral candidates @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and @nycspeakeradams.bsky.social share a chuckle while mayoral candidate @bradlander.bsky.social speaks at today's @nywfp.bsky.social #RankTheSlate rally in Fort Greene Park.

Also worth noting: I'm a dues paying member of the @nywfp.bsky.social - AND I'm also a registered Democrat. You can do both! That means I still vote in Democratic primaries - which is CRITICAL in NYC, because that's where many elections get decided.
