Tuberculosis kills 1.25 million people each year. Pausing treatment allows tuberculosis bacteria to evolve drug resistance. This administration is making this disease deadlier and more widespread.

Just received this photo from a friend of a warehouse in Kinshasa. These are tuberculosis medications--ALREADY PAID FOR--that aren't being distributed due to the Trump Administration's stop work order.
TB treatment is being interrupted in SO many patients around the world. What does that mean? (1/2)

And it’s now on my to-read list, which has 400ish books on it, but this one is near the top of the list.

I had some great swamp milkweed and other natives at a house we moved from a year ago. I have seeds for 35+ natives (six different milkweeds) that I’ve seeded or plan to seed in the coming weeks on a plot of 5,000 sq ft.

My son heard his first Yippee-kay-yeah when he was 12, and this will be the third year of our annual watching.

Met friends to see Foo Fighters (at the height of their powers) at Wrigley Field.

I’ve chosen craft beer, but did take the train from Kansas City to Chicago to see a concert several years ago. Also, I’m a history buff w an interest in WW2.

I listened to it all the way through (was trying to solve the blue/grey divide and life in general) for the first time in several years last weekend - agreed.
