All I want is to breathe. Won't you breathe with me? Find a little space, so we move in-between (In-between it.) And keep one step ahead of yourself. Talking Heads - Born Under Punches - Boston's Donna Summer "Love to Love You Baby" changed me forever

Today tested for the big three with a Q-tip up my nostrils.... Nope, not Flu, Not RSV and not COVID 19- whew, dodged those bullets. Just a barking cough and a subsequent sore throat. Back to masking in all public indoor places. Still planning to see Alex Gibney speak at Musk Boston Premier.

I think we largely agree. The Vultures who loaded with debt and emptied the malpractice self insurance accounts on the sly are way worse than Healey. Her error was not evil. It was poor oversight, and a lack of reasonable oversight regulation.

Brown did. If BMC unwilling to buy tail insurance unless TRACO is dissolved, DPH needs to stand in the breach. Too many small former Steward Hospitals patients suffering. We have $8B in rainy day fund now. Carney bought by Apollo Global Management to become Dorchester Health Campus w/500 apts.

Also logical fallacy. The BG editorial board endorsed Moulton. Do you read every article in the BG thru this lens? I agree that it's tone deaf of BG to endorse Moulton. I also think there are good investigative pieces published. Both are true. Fugg Minogue. Disappointed in Maura. She's CB lite.

She, plus PE marauders and Ralph Del La Torre, and the scum who moved TRACO to Panama to purposefully avoid paying out. Lack of oversight by EEOHHS' daughter agency DPH and the Insurance Commission. All of them.

Healey needs to wear this as a badge of shame for allowing Steward to use a Panamanian registered malpractice insurance system that was owned by Steward. The offshore insurer cannot be touched to pay the millions in claims remaining, and this loophole exists in Mass. Docs were not covered.

I'm sad that the 120th Congress will be missing Al Green. When the Democratic candidates sweep to a hopeful bullet proof majority in the House, it should be Green filing the first impeachment papers.

#PreserveVoteByMail My mail ballot arrived yesterday for election 11/3. I'm ambivalent - if I vote by mail it's entirely possible I'd be a plaintiff in a class action suit. Watch USPS and Felonious talk. Is voting in person more likely to assist the blue wave coming into both houses of Congress?

I hope someone, anyone, asked the wearer what statement they believed they were making. Usually, in fine Jordan Klepper interview style, their answers fall apart into ridiculously uninformed POVs and general arrogant ignorance that is so stylish these days.

3/3 He deleted tweets to wash his rep, but still illegally monetized the X acct and when caught, changed the acct, incorporated an LLC in Wyoming, (Dick Cheney land,) and launched this rag.

He lacks the foundational ethics of credible journos on several fronts. Publishing anonymously for money is top among these. Both-sides stance in BG interview won't change that - just underlines hypocrisy of his past on X His cavalier 'has no personal beef with Wu' put her in danger for clicks 2/3

He contradicts himself by stating he regrets some of his vicious click bait of years ago. The anonymous Anti Wu Coalition X acct built his fan base of lazy, AI slop readers, those that never fact check/analyze media bias. Critical media consumers always read POVs around the political spectrum. 1/3

Certainly my first thought is to hope these were not illicit market, adulterated product. But if these were the usual 5mg gummies sold to those age 21 or older,I almost want to laugh reflecting on how high everyone was at my Fast Times at Ridgemont High era HS in 1977. No shelter in place back then.
