I object to statins. If you read the list of potential side-effects, they can be pretty rotten, and while they do lower your numbers, the reduction in actual heart disease is laughable. Something like 2.5%. And they keep lowering the threshold where statins are pushed on people.

Well, my car was supposed to be repaired and delivered back to me last Tuesday, then last Friday, then yesterday, but good news! Someone finally unlocked it and opened the door! Maybe they'll start working on it now.

He sold his power to get the title. With the GQP, appearance is everything. Substance is meaningless.

My GP doesn't like that I want to read the data sheet on medications, and have opinions about them. Hey, it's my body, it works pretty well for me, most of the time, before you start me on something you say I'm going to be taking for the rest of my life, I want some information, and I'll weight the pros and cons and get back to you.

When I went in for gout, the doctor acted like she thought I was exaggerating, until she examined me. Then she told me I should be rolling around screaming, not limping into her exam room.
If it hadn't gotten to the point I couldn't stand the weight of a bedsheet on my foot, I wouldn't have gone in when I did.

@ScottSoCal They also have a bunch parked in an old closed down mall lot near me where they regularly film the dystopian Zombie Walking Dead series. At first I thought it was strange, but now it seems quite normal.

Today is the 102nd anniversary of a horror that took place in my hometown, the #TulsaRaceMassacre, in which several thousand White citizens and authorities attacked and murdered a still-unknown number of Black residents and destroyed 35 square blocks of "Black Wall Street." Never forget. #Tulsa #History #Race #Greenwood #BlackWallStreet

Please enjoy this logo for the Scalzi Family Foundation, my family's charitable foundation, which was created for us by artist Natalie Metzger. I think it's delightful.

Sharing this email I received from March For Our Lives. So exciting!

It’s finally happening! πŸŽ‰πŸŽŠπŸ₯³

Four years of class, cram sessions, and waaaay too many skipped school days to join us in the fight for gun safety, David is officially graduating college as part of Harvard’s Class of 2023!! πŸŽ“

In 2018, David was just another teenager in Parkland, Florida. Then, the unthinkable happened at his high school. He helped shine a light on that horrifying day and joined his classmates in sparking a global movement to end gun violence. Five years later, and a college degree wiser, he’s still with us in the fight and the movement is as strong as ever.

We couldn't be more thankful for his fierce advocacy for gun safety all while juggling the responsibilities of being a college student.

We want to wish David a happy graduation and let him know how proud we are of his accomplishments.

πŸ–‹οΈSign our graduation card to congratulate David and send him a warm message

Thanks for joining in. We’ll compile everyone's signatures and messages so we can send David a special congratulations.

In solidarity,
