I was Today Years Old when I found a citation error in an article (published in a very prestigious journal) about the importance of avoiding citation errors. Amazing to me how lazy respected sources can be about checking facts.😂

You need this thread in your life.

RT @ibdgirl76: “What if, instead, today’s surge in fentanyl deaths is a by-product of decades of aggressively waging the War on Drugs?” ht…

So. What's an intrepid gal-reporter gotta do to get suspended around here?

Let’s all just take a minute to behold this absurd stock photo. Like all the best art, it provokes more questions than it answers. E.g., What kind of professional solves Very Easy Mazes for a living? And why does it require business attire? https://t.co/R2LyipbSkh

I love snow. The part where it falls off the roof and drives the dogs out of their minds? Not so much.

I never tire of reading how the murky megacorporations that run our lives describe their work. The one with the black box algorithm that decides who should get pain meds brings "advanced analytics and real-time decisioning to its omnichannel clients."

I'm a volunteer EMT. I've seen firsthand what "coke" cut with fentanyl can do. Standard doses of naloxone are not adequate to reverse fent ODs. The days when all coke users had to worry about was baby laxative are over.

People who use the word "learnings" should be drawn and quartered. I will die on that hill.

I toil away in solitude and anonymity in my mountain hermitage. So how in the heck did I catch a cold? A government conspiracy is the only reasonable conclusion.

Trying to find online contact info for a 92-year-old former congressman is going about as well as can be expected. Anyone have Charlie Rangel's digits?

Southwest WA politics are wacky enough right now that I actually kind of miss being up to my neck in stories of regional political intrigue. Strange times, indeed. #WAelex
