I want to thank the @Waymo riders in San Francisco for leaving my phone alone when i left it in the back seat this Tuesday. I watched it go around SF in the car undisturbed. I retrieved it 3 hours at the depot. Thank you! San Francisco-you’re beautiful!

Real life recent experience of anti vaccine in Samoa through the lens of people who were there. Measles is not a joke.

Blue Cross Blue Shield in Connecticut, New York and Missouri has declared it will no longer pay for anesthesia for the full length of some surgeries.

It the procedure goes over a certain time, anesthesia will not be covered for the duration.

“While I concede this election, I don’t concede the fight that fueled this campaign. The fight for feeedom, opportunity, fairness, and dignity of all people, and ideals at the heart of this nation… that is a fight I will never give up.”

MedGlobal stands by this urgent statement from Rajaa Musleh, our Country Director of Gaza. We are deeply concerned for the safety of our colleagues, who are more than healthcare providers—they are lifelines. Their detention leaves a critical void in medical support. We call on the world to stand with us, demand their immediate release, and uphold international human rights laws.

China, Russia, Iran and North Korea are working together to undermine the United States and its leadership, Council of Foreign Relations president Michael Froman tells me. But, “there’s been an action and reaction. NATO is stronger now than it has been for decades.”

Spectacular view from space.

For only the second time in our 179-year history, the editors of Scientific American are endorsing a candidate for president. That person is @KamalaHarris. | Editorial https://t.co/dOsFW8BQCn

In my meeting with @VP on Gaza, she projected empathy, compassion, and articulated a cohesive policy to end the war and post-war rebuilding. The war and its impact on civilians were top on her agenda.

An actual hero.

This is what America First looks like when it’s a lived ethos, rather than a mask for narcissism and ambition.

In 2028, I hope we have a Kamala Harris and a Pete Buttigieg ticket. Because, baby I would hold fundraisers, create pacs, & campaign the heck for them to win. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

This is one of the last Messages MedGlobal received from Dr. Rajaa Musleh, MedGlobal Gaza Country Representative. It has been 24 hours since we have last heard from our dedicated staff on the ground, and we are deeply concerned about their safety and well-being.

So, I spoke to people getting food at a food bank and here are some things I learned from those in need:
1. Everyone donates Kraft Mac and Cheese in the box. They can rarely use it because it needs milk and butter which is hard to get from regular food banks.
2. Boxed milk is a treasure, as kids need it for cereal which they also get a lot of.
3. Everyone donates pasta sauce and spaghetti noodles.
4. They cannot eat all the awesome canned veggies and soup unless you put a can opener in too or buy pop tops.
5. Oil is a luxury but needed for Rice a-Roni which they also get a lot of.
6. Spices or salt and pepper would be a real Christmas gift.
7. Tea bags and coffee make them feel like you care.
8. Sugar and flour are treats.
9. They fawn over fresh produce donated by farmers and grocery stores.
10. Seeds are cool in Spring and Summer because growing can be easy for some.
11. They rarely get fresh meat.
12. Tuna and crackers make a good lunch.
13. Hamburger Helper goes nowhere without ground beef.
14. They get lots of peanut butter and jelly but usually not sandwich bread.
15. Butter or margarine is nice too.
16. Eggs are a real commodity.
17. Cake mix and frosting makes it possible to make a child’s birthday cake.
18. Dishwashing detergent is very expensive and is always appreciated.
19. Feminine hygiene products are a luxury and women will cry over that.
20. Everyone loves Stove Top Stuffing.

In all the years I have donated food at the Holidays, I bought what I thought they wanted, but have never asked. I am glad I did. If you are helping a Family this Christmas, maybe this can help you tailor it more. It does for me!

Photographer Daniel Biber from Hilzingen, Germany was trying to capture the murmuration of starlings for 4 days when he finally succeeded.

He just didn't realize the starlings had created a giant bird in the sky until he got home and reviewed the pictures.
