@RaquelMella true, but they also don't need to be charging $84 for a radiologist to look at my chest x-ray. it's definitely a problem with the entire healthcare system. it wouldn't be a problem if i was looking for a pcp, but i need to call specialists that are at least 45 minutes away.

if you're a physician and don't accept medicaid/care, i want you to know that i personally consider you in breach of the social contract and that i, someone who researches disease so you can disseminate that information, cannot receive your care

@Decoy_38 live in VA and we don't have this problem. maybe the demographics are different. just graduated from a uni where about 20% of students were intl (not immigrants). i thought it was pretty great, i felt it really humbled me.

@ReichlinMelnick really like how ICE didnt have a problem with international students taking all online credits a semester before covid

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

This is bad. ICE just told students here on student visas that if their school is going online-only this fall, the students must depart the United States and cannot remain through the fall semester. https://t.co/8DteVzexLB

my grandmother lost to metastatic pancreatic cancer yesterday morning. she raised me since i was an infant. i didn't just lose my grandmother, i lost my "mother" as well. there's a lot i wanted to say, a lot i want to say, but i can't form thoughts right now.

@UF saying it? I don't think so.

[amber 🌈🌱🌿 @mycobuff]

@UF though apparently that's debatable? - from a black player, but just because he was probably ignorant of the use of the phrase beforehand does not exonerate the continued use of it. If a 5 yo keeps saying the n-word, even tho he doesn't know what it means, would you let him keep-

thank you! onwards to more interdisciplinary projects!

@laura_jalon yup, PMMoV does cause dwarfing in fruits. it really depends on the cultivar the range of the symptoms you can experience, and i'm no expert, but that's my guess :)
