Andy is morbidly obese and wants nothing more than to lose weight. Unfortunately, he joins a clinical trial & discovers he's in the placebo group, which is a blessing in disguise since the drug makes people develop an irrepressible hunger for human fat. #dvpit#NA#genrebending
@NativeSpinner@Phil_Lewis_ No, the doctors and nurses assumed the risk in treating him, and his response is a slap in the face to every person who kept him alive. Without medical intervention, he would have died. Period.
@latimes@BillPlaschke Nothing about his story sounds like a "weird flu." I have never once considered calling an ambulance when I have the flu. I've even had pneumonia and could still get stuff done. People need to stop comparing covid to the flu. This guy had a mild case, and it sounds like hell.

@GHarvey808@M1cha31Patr1ck I believe we would have seen the same level of pushback in March from people feeling that wearing a mask deprives them of the personal liberties.
@MarieCopes Maybe because wearing a mask isn't an issue of intelligence but rather of compassion. The mask doesn't protect you. It protects others FROM you.
@LMingail @Rodney_Is_Ouat3 Umm, no. I'm a black woman. Didn't support her in the primaries, and I actually don't think she would make a good president. Black people don't just vote for black people, which I hope is the same for white people.
@daChipster @HabibaChoudhu I think the point is that he has won that many delegates after suspending his campaign and without campaigning. For a race that's supposed to be over, that's a significant number of delegates.
I love burgers. Love. But working on this piece reminded me of what I try to avoid: eating them comes with too high a cost. Renewing efforts to wean myself off meat. https://t.co/SOuJ3LYdy7
