People who say “I can’t do that, it’s against my religion” are practicing religious freedom.

People who say “You can’t do that, it’s against my religion” are practicing authoritarianism.

Elon Musk once said:

“Stop being patient and start asking yourself: How can I accomplish my 10 year plan in 6 months? You will probably fail, but you'll be far ahead of the person who simply accepted it would take 10 years.”

“I work the front desk at a small doctor’s office, and I wish people could see what happens on the other side of the phone.
Every day, older patients call us confused.

They are told to use the patient portal, upload documents, check lab results online, fill out forms before the visit, and confirm everything through a link.
Some of them do not know what a portal is.

Some do not have a smartphone.
Some have one, but they are afraid to click the wrong thing.
Last week, a man in his late 80s called about his test results.

He said, “Ma’am, I don’t mean to bother you, but the computer says I have a message and I don’t know how to open it.”
He sounded ashamed.
That broke my heart.

He should not have to feel ashamed for needing a human being.
Technology can be helpful. I understand that.

But when people who built this country are made to feel helpless because everything became a login and a password, we have gone too far.
Not everything needs to be an app.
Not every answer should be hidden behind a screen.

Sometimes people need a voice.
A patient person.
A real human who says, “Don’t worry, I can help you.”
Progress should not leave seniors behind.

Because one day, the world will move faster than us too.
And I hope someone is kind enough to slow down.

I'm a cardiologist. A woman loses her husband. Two days later she's on my cath lab table — chest pain, EKG changes, enzymes elevated. Everything says heart attack.
I thread the catheter. Her arteries are pristine.
Her heart didn't clog. It shattered. From grief.
Takotsubo — broken heart syndrome. Stress hormones stun the ventricle so severely it balloons and stops pumping. 90% of cases are women. Your heart can literally break. Not a metaphor. Physiology.
But this is just one blind spot in a system built for men's hearts.
Women get microvascular disease — plaque in vessels too small for angiograms to see. Heart attacks with "clean" arteries.
Women get SCAD — leading cause of heart attack under 50. Most doctors have never diagnosed one.
Women present with fatigue, jaw pain, nausea, back pain. Medicine called these "atypical" for decades. They're not atypical. They're female-typical.
Half of humanity is not a variant.
Heart disease kills more women than every cancer combined. Fewer than half know.
Three things every woman needs to hear:
Say these exact words to your doctor: "I am concerned this could be my heart." That sentence changes everything. Don't soften it.
If tests are "normal" but symptoms persist — demand CT angiography or cardiac MRI.
If you had preeclampsia — your cardiac surveillance starts now. Not at 65.
Your heart can break from grief, from stress, from a system that wasn't built to see you.
It can also heal. If someone finally looks.
Share this with every woman you love.

2. IKIGAI — Your Reason to Wake Up
Stop asking "what should I do?"
Start asking "why do I get up?"
Purpose fuels energy. When your why is clear,
discipline becomes effortless.

Americans realizing they spent $75 billion fighting Iran, then another $300 billion rebuilding Iran, just to reopen the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the war started

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

How the fuck do we have $300 billion to rebuild Iran after we spent $80 billion bombing it, when we don’t “have the money” for pediatric cancer research?

Every single time I see a 19-24 year old girl moving in with her boyfriend to ‘escape’ a toxic home, I sob for her.
Like actually cry.
Because 9 times out of 10… she just traded one nightmare for a worse one.
The boyfriend who “rescues” her usually becomes the new cage. Different face, same (or heavier) control.
Please protect these young girls. The grass isn’t greener — it’s just a different patch of dirt. 💔

I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”

Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.

Nobody is coming to save your aging parent.

Not Medicare.
Not the hospital.
Not their primary care doctor.

When your mom gets discharged on 14 medications and three specialist referrals…

The person coordinating all of it is usually an exhausted daughter with a full-time job.

We need to talk about that.

Women: I want to go for a run.

Society: You can't go alone. You'll get raped.

Women: I want to walk to my car in the parking garage.

Society: Alone? You better get someone to escort you, or you'll get raped.

Women: I want to live alone.

Society: You need a gun, an alarm system, a dog and probably a gun for the dog too.

Women: What about going to the park?

Society: Dangerous.

Women: Okay, I'll just go out for a drink then.

Society: Don't take your eyes off your drink. Watch out for predators spiking your drinks. Stay alert at all times.

Women: I was raped.

Society: Are you sure? That just seems impossible.
