People like to make pronouncements about the death of journalism, especially local journalism which is struggling. But the team at @EastIDNews news proves that it's still possible to be a trusted source of news in your community. Happy anniversary and thanks for all you do! 🥳
@EastIDNews Most of what I watch on @EastIDNews is their coverage of the Vallow Daybell case but I also discovered the joy of their Feel Good Friday and Secret Santa segments.

@EastIDNews And I’ve also learned a bit of Idaho history from @EastIDNews.

1. Always fascinating to read tweets from people who have no earthly idea what is going on in a situation and are being misled by a conflict entrepreneur but don’t know enough to know what they don’t know.
2. Because these folks are often in a bubble of their own making, they can’t get any outside info to learn more and debunk what they think they know, although even if that info is made available to them, they wouldn’t believe it.
3. Also fascinating how these conflict entrepreneurs can get into a toxic feedback loop with their followers/enablers. Their falsehoods are supported by the people who believe them and don’t know better and keep telling them to keep going on the basis of the false info.

1. This happened in the Wakefield/Reading area north of Boston. 11 arrested.

One of the men "told the trooper they were on their way to Maine from Rhode Island for "training.""

They are with Rise of the Moors.

2. They claim not to be sovereign citizens because "When we declare our nationality as Moorish Americans we are taking back the position as the aboriginal people of the land, to which the sovereign power is vested in."

3. Like sovereign citizens, they don't pay taxes.

1. I've never had cancer but yes this. 👇

I have MS so I've had a lot of MRIs over the years. Previously my hospitals would embargo the radiologist's report for 7 days so I couldn't access it online, during which time, no one would contact me with the results.
2. MRI reports are usually written within 24 hours of scan.

In order to get a copy of my MRI report(s), I could drive to the hospital and go in person to the film library to have them burn me a CD and give me a copy of the report.
3. Eventually my PCP's office will send me an official letter online and sometimes my neurologists will call or message me to tell me the results but this has always longer than 24-48 hours after.

Hospital hold music loops need to be longer. Much longer. 🎶

Currently listening to what sounds like 80s uptempo smooth listening with numerous synth hooks. It’s actually not that bad but I’ve been on hold for several minutes and I think I’ve heard it in full 6+ times.
Update: It loops every minute and 3 seconds.

This is actually longer than some other hospital hold music I have to listen to regularly.
Well, spent 80 minutes on the phone with an assistant who is the only person who has tried to really help me in her department with an issue I’ve been having since last week. Definitely going to be telling Patient Relations about how helpful she was. 💖

1. Queer folks and the media will sometimes talk about the needs of “the queer community”, “the LGBTQ community” or “the trans community”.

But LGBTQ folks, like any identity group, don’t all want the same things.
2. The more radical are happy to call out others for not queering appropriately by their standards.
3. This is how you get a group of queer activists barring Minneapolis city councillor Andrea Jenkins from leaving the Taking Back Pride march for 2 hours until she signed their demands.

1. A rant about the administrative burden of being chronically ill.

The most frustrating aspect of living with chronic illnesses are the people who treat you like you must just be hanging out resting in bed for fun or who imply that you’re lazy.
2. Today I spent the majority of the afternoon catching up on medical phone calls even though I should have been resting. But I don’t have an assistant so I have to make all these calls myself.
3. I made/received 25 calls from around noon to now. This wasn’t to 25 different offices. Some were redials due to bad connection or going through voicemail options trying to figure who the best person was to leave voicemail for.
