I am interested to see whether healthcare companies terminate their relationship with Dr. Peter Attia over this.

He is an advisor to many healthcare companies including Virta, Moonwalk Biosciences, Eight Sleep as well as supplement companies like AG1.
Oh look, according to Peter Attia MD “pussy is low carb” something that is totally normal for a doctor to say to Epstein, who had previously been convicted of procuring a child for prostitution

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Here's what ICE is up to in Northeast Minneapolis today. Absolutely heartbreaking.

78,000 people attended this @aclu.org training last night. It goes over your constitutional rights to record, whether using whistles could be considered protected or not (tbd - it hasn't been tested in court), and how to de-escalate.

Must watch!

I keep thinking about this fact that his last words were are you okay and hers were I'm not mad at you and it feels like a weird coincidence but it's just a reflection of the fact that the people who are coming out to take care of their neighbors are good and the people who are after them are bad
His dying words were asking about the safety of someone next to him

By Saturday afternoon, some Trump admin. personnel had already begun scouring the internet and other resources trying to find information on Alex Pretti, including social media posts, that could tie him to what Team Trump call “extremists,” two sources familiar with the matter tell @zeteo.com

I spent the last year writing a book about the ridiculous demands of what it means to be masculine. But a guy who takes care of people who served our country, asks a woman “are you ok?” When she is in distress and looks out for his vulnerable neighbors seems like a pretty good role model for a man.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social said yesterday we need just 16 Republicans to flip to #defundICE and hold the Trump Administration accountable for these murders.

Here are 16 GOP members who could potentially listen to their conscience and flip.

If you are a constituent, CALL. EVERY DAY.

People who work in media: What is going on with @latimes.com? Do they think they're a low budget CNN? What is this random live-streaming section?

Did they lay off all their designers?

NEWS: The Wegovy pill (Ozempic for weight loss) is now available. If you've been hesitant to try a GLP-1 medication out of fear of the injection, the pill may be a great option for you.
Plus it's way cheaper than the shots at $149/month (up to $299 for the highest).

Loved the concept of the "reverse salient" from @emollick.bsky.social - the step(s) in a process that hold the system back from being faster or more efficient.

These weaknesses are often the most difficult to change, but once a tech/regulatory advancement happens, the whole system leaps forward

A House healthcare proposal (Bipartisan Health Insurance Affordability Act) sneaks in a lot of much needed PBM reform 🧵

Mostly takes effect in 2029.

Requires pass-through of rebates, disclosure of formulary placement & affiliated pharmacy revenue, no spread pricing

I know this is an obvious complaint, but we as taxpayers should not accept Congress and the GPO (Government Printing Office) taking 3-4 months or longer to publish Congressional hearing transcripts.

No Senate Cmte Hearing transcripts available beginning of August

Do you use a personal CRM tool that you like? I've heard recs for Clay, Dex, and Contacts+.

I want something low cost that's designed for personal contacts and networking, NOT sales.

Drop your recs please!
