In his 1957 filibuster, Strom Thurmond said "Negroes ... are not so well qualified to vote as are the white people.”

A Black senator just broke the record Thurmond set with that speech.

A lot in the first 3-6 months (spit up, diapers, etc.). Then it starts to depend on your kid, I feel like. And seasons, of course. Then they eventually start running around and wearing holes in things. And may play sports so you need gear for that.

Listen, we can debate the data on boosters-for-all, but what matters MOST is that the process occur transparently - with career scientists leading. I worry that that process is not being followed.

Transposition of Great Arteries (TGA)

- In cc-TGA, heart “self-corrects” w/ AV & VA discordance, but RV supports systemic flow—leads to dysfxn, valve issues & heart block

- In d-TGA, aorta arises from RV & PA from LV, creating parallel circuits. Without mixing (ASD/VSD/PDA), incompatible w/ life

I asked ChatGPT about the environmental impact of one prompt to it. It answered and then offered me suggestions on how to decrease my personal carbon footprint. And then pulled out this gem (because it knows me, apparently). Slightly terrifying how technology has completely changed our lives.

The University of Pennsylvania Health System told staff Tuesday that it is trimming 300 positions. More than 100 of those jobs are vacant or held by people who have announced their retirement.

A health system executive said the cuts are not a reaction to the potential for federal funding cuts.
