Bullies pick on the kindest people never other bullies. As I tell my kids, bullies don't feel great about themselves so when they do it, it's not about you (or the person they are going after). It is about them and their personal situation, so try hard to not take it personally.

Awesome. So happy to be in LA. Hi Measles! Hope my childhood vaccine still works. 🙃

This resonates. I can say with confidence that not everyone likes me. Not by a long shot. Most people can't handle me tbh.

Hi LA!

Sam Ghali, M.D. As someone with hospice experience, I believe assisted suicide should be an option in certain situations.

He killed it.

St. Andrew's-Potomac beat Sidwell Friends by a landslide.

I'm proud of my boy for showing his grit. As always 🥍.

This is wild, women on #weightloss drug #wegovy #ozempic say it helped them get #pregnant even after #fertilitytreatment didn't. A Dr confirms, it's happening! Explains possible cause, (but don't take the drug DURING #pregnancy !!) wbur.org/hereandnow/202…

Testing wastewater, standing water and nearby water reservoirs (that might supply farms and communities) would be a good step. Since we haven’t seen any data on human serology surveys, testing nearby wastewater could provide interesting, timely, & helpful insights.
