Since the Winter Olympics is underway, this is the perfect time to post Surya Bonaly doing her back flip on ice. Judges used to underscore her and I loved that she did the backflip in her last performance before retiring as a big FU to the establishment.
When the American empire finally collapses, historians won’t be stunned by the greed of the elite; They’ll be stunned by the loyalty of the poor.
The working class didn’t just vote against their own interests. They worshipped the billionaires robbing them.
They slashed their own benefits, gutted their own healthcare, and cheered while the rich wrote off private jets as tax deductions.

Another Chinese comfort dish. You won't find this in any restaurants outside of China, but it's probably the number 1 home dish with younger generation Chinese today.

Lets go!

Heartbroken after seeing a young patient with no medical history, end up with a BIFFL GRADE II dissection of the vertebral artery and subsequent acute PICA infarct immediately after a neck adjustment from the chiropractor. This has to stop.
Chiropractors - you HAVE to stop.
I need someone to explain to me like I’m 5 years old.
It was confirmed that is she born a biological woman but testing showed elevated levels of testosterone. If we are saying elevated levels of testosterone makes you a biological man, does that mean ‘women’ who suffer from acne, PCOS, diabetes, alopecia and infertility linked to Hyperandrogenism makes them men? Or is this only in regard to Sporting events when the winning woman has this condition.
I met with a Medical Director in a Neurology Group a few weeks ago. Outside of his locations are signs that read “No Mask No Entry Until Further Notice.” 1/13
1/ I’m an Israeli historian. My community is still too silent about the horrible war in Gaza. Over 8 months I’ve closely followed the war, reading >1000 articles and viewing >1000 videos/images of the war from all sides. My summary conclusions & full report are in the 🧵:
