Getting ready to go in to a school board meeting to speak in favor of mask mandates. Wish me luck!
Thanks for all the good thoughts and kind comments. I am profoundly grateful and relieved to report that the superintendent recommended and the board approved a mask mandate. I was glad to speak in favor, but the decision came before public comment, so I get no credit!
A friend took a pic of the CC footage.
Last couple comments:
1) there were plenty of people speaking out against masks, and were roughly as coherent as you would expect
2) it was very gratifying that other doctors (ID, ENT and psychiatrist) were there to offer their expertise in support of a mask mandate

Ah, so perhaps this is why he blocked so many actual pediatricians. Image
Would someone the coward hasn’t blocked please tell him on my behalf to go fuck himself?
First of all, the Iraq War was built on lies, so any comparison to school closings is vile.

Second, do you think pediatricians ~want~ school closings? Do you think we are oblivious to the harms we confront in our patients every goddamn workday?

I am going to miss the work of her stylist, however, and the "madam at a high-end brothel on Tatooine" looks we were treated to.

For some reason I can’t quite put my finger on, my head has not exploded to date.
All you gay football players longing to live your truth as straight men, know that I will support your coming out, no matter how confusing I will find it.
Can we file Gay Football Players Who Are Straight under “+”? That’s a lot of letters to add all at once otherwise.

In honor of #Pride, a handy guide in the use of the f-slur historically levelled at gay men

Are you gay?

If yes, you may use that word around other gays who do not mind that word. (I am not one such gay. Sorry about that.)

If no, then never. Not ever.
I would further suggest that, even if you are gay, you should strenuously avoid using that word around your straight friends, because that may give them the erroneous impression that they are also free to do so.

Which, as I said, is literally never true.
In general, I have found a policy of under no circumstances whatsoever using any kind of slur against a group of people to which I do not myself belong has served me well. Having lightning-bright lines around such words offers helpful clarity.

This would solve the problem of my constantly misplacing my keys, and I am pissed as hell that apparently my Moderna vaccine didn't take the right way or something.
"Gives you superpowers" is right up there with "taco trucks on every corner" on my list of totally fantastic outcomes that some people inexplicably consider a bad thing.
Do you have any idea how many headaches we could avoid here at the office with connecting to our medical record system if we were all our own personal hotspots?

*sigh*

Maybe the booster.
