Cornell University case. 19 states have a law similar to New York’s. If you voluntarily consumed alcohol or drugs, you can’t claim you were mentally incapacitated and couldn’t consent. This needs to change. Full story on Substack: open.substack.com/pub/thefrank...

Public health is at its best when you don't even notice it's working. It doesn't just pop up during a pandemic. It's clean water. It’s food safety. It’s disease prevention. It’s protecting our communities before a crisis hits. That's why we need public health champions in Congress!

Pink was "scared" when Macklemore's said "Free Palestine." How? Why? I'm married to a Jew. He doesn't understand, either. Most bigotry is caused by fear. But that doesn't make bigotry OK. It means we have to work harder to promote understanding. (BTW - good post) open.substack.com/pub/michaelh...

“To destroy things he can't possess or control is his essential nature.” George nails it. 

Narcissistic psychopaths even destroy people and entities when they’ve done the discarding. They can never settle. Destruction tempers their insatiable drive to feel omnipotent, invincible.
