@aburke626 I feel you. I have some unassembled IKEA shelves from 8 months ago in my bedroom

[Sylvia Pellicore @Roenok]

@aburke626 Would a sheer curtain work? Those help me.

@LLesombras @SevcialNeeds @PUPWlTCH @meggyface626 @DruidicFireball @DavidEDaveWall1 @davebrooks86 @CanPanicNow He lay on the floor of his cell, covered in feces and pleading for help, for literal days before he died.

Sadly, the concept of “reasonable“ no longer applies to qualified immunity.

@clpolk @leahmcelrath @msappel I compare the sensation to suddenly realizing there are maggots in your food. I doesn’t matter how much you were previously were enjoying that meatloaf, you aren’t going to finish it.

Millennial Halloween is celebrated at my house my taking my multiple small children trick or treating in matching costumes. We‘re old and boring now!

@FiggyTater @SNeurotypicals @DSpindelman This! And all the rest were about a standard of normal I can’t judge. “Does your child make less eye contact than normal?” I have no clue!

[The Pensive Pediatrician @PensivePedsMD]

This is unacceptable. Young children can’t be left many months behind every time we get a new vaccine. This decreases the benefit. We need a new system @US_FDA

“FDA officials have said that authorization for a bivalent booster for children younger than 5 is several months away.”

Having a garage! Whenever I heard “so and so started their business in their parent’s garage” I thought “wow, they were rich!”

I’m not sure Child Me was wrong, though I was missing some nuance.

[DelyanneTheMoneyCoach ® @DelyanneMoney]

I used to think that having a washer/dryer inside your home meant you were rich. What did you think “rich” meant growing up?

[Sylvia Pellicore @Roenok]

@Taren_in_NC I’m sorry that’s true, but I hope the templates are useful.

So far I’m squeaking by with just staying within one health system so everything is in their EHR, but that has gaps.

Extremely useful if you have a medically complex illness or care for someone who does.

A while back I wrote about my medical binder and what I bring to appts as an individual with a complex, multi-systemic genetic disorder. Some people noted that a model could be helpful. As promised, here's a thread on my medical record binder with a model at the end. 1/17

Qualified immunity = complete impunity

[Lawrence Hurley @lawrencehurley]

Amid the many appeals the Supreme Court declined to hear today was another case in which an armed homeowner was shot and killed on his own property by police after they went to the wrong house. Cops got qualified immunity

"They could have evacuated."
"Why didn't they evacuate?"
"That's what you get for not evacuating."

As a lifelong Florida resident who grew up low-income on Sanibel Island which has been destroyed by #Ian hear me when I say this:

Evacuating is HARD.

[Sylvia Pellicore @Roenok]

@lasrina But that’s not going to stop us from panicking and canceling school!

[Mary Helen Moore @maryhelenmoore]

Since apparently people have decided to slag on Waffle House today, allow me to say a few words, as a transplant to the South, about this institution.

Waffle House goes harder than 99% of us will ever go in our lives.

[Leah McElrath @leahmcelrath]

All that water is going to be coming back in FAST—and with more—during the surge. Incredible destructive power.

People often focus on hurricane winds, but it’s the storm surge that kills.

Shelter-in-place at the highest possible location.
