And for the love of God, they need to stop trying to fundraise off this.

Can I just interrupt the regularly-scheduled outrage to say please be careful of stigmatizing therapeutic ketamine therapy? It is life changing for many people in their battles with depression. Abuse is another matter, but the two are being conflated in a way that can further mental health stigma.

Reminds me of bomb threats at polls on election night …

We need more of this. Lots more.

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

Please do not respond to my calls for action with asking me why it’s important to call whether your member of Congress will agree with you or not. That’s NOT the reason that we call. The reason that we call is to make our voice HEARD and that matters whether you live in a blue, red, purple district.

I find myself dreaming about a coffee klatch where the fired CIA and FBI agents get together to chat.

Sure, but you asked for opinions. (My answer came from the regular peer reviewer across the room from me.) The stakes between a scientific study and a book review are quite different.

Beth N @mebeth14.bsky.social · 06/02/2025

No. This would pressure reviewers to consider things (e.g., reputation, personal contacts, corporate and professional affiliations, etc.) besides the science.

I understand the booing. Would it be too much to ask this to be escalated to mooning?

Bernie Sanders: "We are living in an unprecedented moment in American history. We are looking at a rapid growth of oligarchy. We are looking at a rapid growth of authoritarianism. And I fear we're looking at a rapid growth of kleptocracy as well."

Stating the obvious: tariffs are a regressive tax on the poorest Americans. A company pays the tariff, and raises their prices to get that money. That price is paid by the consumer. Duh

To all my American friends: We Canadians are well aware that there is only one person to blame for the trade war against our country - the Felon In Chief. We will fight because that is what we do, but our anger is not against you. Our bond will endure. 🇨🇦🫶🇺🇸

Would really like to see more than sound bytes from the congressional Dems and Independents. Don’t keep telling us it’s awful; fight it.

Since tariffs are a tax on U.S. importers, why do we permit the President to impose them unilaterally without authorization from Congress? Asking for a nation.

Democratic lawmakers need to understand something: Imagine your house is on fire. Fire truck shows up. Firefighters get out. They look at the fire, then at you, and say: "Such a fire is a grave threat. This house will not sustain." And just stand there. This is how many of you are coming across.

I am begging Democratic lawmakers to stop solely pointing out the obvious problems and start publicly talking about how to address them. We know our democracy is unstable and unhealthy. What are you gonna do about it? Cease the platitudes and broad statements. Get specific and talk about actions.

Take breaks to ground yourself in all the beautiful things that are in your life. What is happening is huge - don’t get me wrong - but there is so much no politician can steal. For me it’s my heart, the beauty of nature, my family and pets, music, hobbies …

Now do the federal employee situation … please

And how about veterans? The VA is already understaffed and underfunded. AND they have suspended the veteran suicide helpline. Not hyperbole to think veterans will die.

Please push the narrative about the offer to federal workers to resign. Illegal and maybe even a scam. Consider the understaffed, underfunded VA system. It is not hyperbole to say veterans will die.

The VA staff has already been demoralized over this past week, and now they are being pressured to resign or face loyalty standards. Expect the already strained system to implode with a mass exodus of the best and brightest.

Oh, the magic spigot! Why didn’t the firefighters think of that?
