@JoshMalina About to be discharged from Fred Hutch cancer center supervision following bone marrow transplant in March 2026... cancer free with no evidence of leukemia.
Can't count how many units of platelets I received early on in this process.
Baruch Hashem & Hell Yeah!
Streaming "The Larry Sanders Show", and who appears, but the one and only @JoshMalina . Starring with Garry Shandling, John Ritter, Warren Zevon, Rip Torn, and Gene Siskel. Such talents lost too soon.
(Don't spend your residual all at once!)
@JoshMalina so.. walking down the street a couple weeks ago and picked up a diagnosis of acute leukemia with some side action of low platelets. So far 2 bags of platelets and counting. Can't express in words how meaningful your efforts and those of your team are. Kol HaKavod.
@joshtpm@ronaldfeljones But the loss of SCOTUS, any sense of the GOP being rational (they are arguing any policy isn't enough pain\cuts, not that they're too much), and the gerrymandering of red state statehouses have tipped my outlook into left conspiracy theory territory, a depressing development 2/2.
@joshtpm@ronaldfeljones I'm not denying your scholarship and pov; in fact I've wondered how someone deep into current politics & steeped in history can cope \ maintain hope with events of the last decade and last 6 months. This is more my pessimism winning the day (at least I hope that's all it is) 1/2
@ronaldfeljones@joshtpm He (actually his Fed Society / project 2025 bosses have succeeded at SCOTUS far more already than any of us would have believed 6 months ago. "Clearly, this will be too far for SCOTUS"- I'm tired of saying that and being wrong.
@joshtpm I certainly hope you are correct. But the only consistent thing I see is the administration governing like they're well be no future elections.
