There is a moment at the very very end of Abdul El-Sayed's podcast with Ezra Klein (book recommendation section) where he talks about the idea of "speaking truth to pain" and this will be staying with me for an extremely long time. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/o...

But there’s also something about truth to pain. We talk a lot about truth to power, but I think it’s actually a lot harder to speak truth to pain. I say that as someone who went to medical school, realizing that in a lot of our politics right now, we’ve got to get a lot better at speaking truth to pain if we’re going to get through some of these challenges that we have.

What does “truth to pain” mean?

It’s one thing to look power in the eye and say: You’re wrong about this. But there’s a way in which pain is very difficult to reason with. Because when somebody is in their pain, they’re in their trauma. They see that pain, and they may not see what’s causing it.

I remember just very explicitly being in a trauma ward with a gunshot wound patient and watching this big guy with his hand on his gunshot wound. All the folks are trying to pull his hand off his pain, that point of his gunshot wound, this clear vulnerability.

And this emergency room doctor had the presence of mind to be like: Everyone, stop. And she looks him in the eyes, and she’s like: I get that really hurts, and I’m so sorry that you’re here. You don’t want to be here. We don’t want you to be here. But if you don’t let us fix this, you could die. So I’m going to take your hand, and I’m going to move it off, OK? Because I need to get there so that you can live.

She was speaking truth to pain. He understands he’s at the hospital, he needs care, but he also doesn’t want anybody to touch the wound. Which is a natural thing. And I think it is a really great metaphor for how we think about a lot of these challenges we talked about today.

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...

A great reminder that we shouldn't jump to conclusions. I have to admit that in this case, even I was guilty. I know what the video looked like, and I filled in the blanks with assumptions. Maybe... maybe don't do that. Because frankly, you don't know.

The federal minimum wage has been stuck at a paltry $7.25 an hour since 2009. Guess how much the wage would be today if it kept up with worker productivity over the years?

It’s only going to get worse everyday and in the foreseeable future the only hope there is to save our democracy is to vote blue, vote early and mail-in ballots.

Trump promised an easy victory. Then Iran shot down an American F-15E. Since, he's relied on multimillion-dollar long-range missiles to keep U.S. aircraft farther away, burning through some of America's most valuable weapons while American troops remain under fire. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Trump’s fear of another downed aircraft is depleting America’s most valuable missiles without bringing the war closer to an end.

The number of #Democrats expressing sympathy at the death of Lindsey #Graham and calling him a friend is rather depressing. You KNOW that if, say, #Bernie Sanders suddenly dropped dead Congressional #Republicans would be partying.

Today is like when you order something from a store that you want and they send you the wrong thing. At first, you're disappointed, but come to realize that you are happy with what they sent and will just wait for the thing you *really* want.
