Avoiding Outrage Fatigue while Staying Informed
https://www.scientificamerican.com/podcast/episode/how-to-avoid-outrage-fatigue-and-tune-in-without-burning-out/Outrage fatigue can wear us down—but we can take care of ourselves in an onslaught of overwhelming news.
Method to GOP madness
We all know web ads where a so-called weird trick, picture of fruit cropped to look like human anatomy, or other bizarre titillation is targeting us to click through to underlying content.
This is EXACTLY what the GOP is doing with false pet-eating claims, Taylor Swift hate, etc. because they have no viable platform, credibility, or likeability left. They must spew crap just to draw media and keep their kind of 'Mericans engaged.
Please tune Trump and his band of sentient dingleberries out... turn off M$M... don't click through... Keep calm and G.O.T.V.
Examples just now from CNN.com:
How every Trump interview, press conference, etc should go.
First question "Will you accept election results if Kamala Harris wins?"
Until YES or NO, don't move on to another subject. Stay on him like a honey badger!
Cornell University building vandalized by pro-Palestine activists on first day of semester...
RFK, Jr. down the worm hole...
1) "I had a brain worm" = helminth
2) Ivermectin is an antihelminthic drug.
3) To this day, RFK, Jr. promotes Ivermectin for COVID-19 https://childrenshealthdefense.org/research_category/ivermectin/
4) "I endorse Trump for President."
THE VAST RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY AGAINST HELMINTHS IS IN PLAY.
Do. your. own. research.
Don't stop at insulin...
2019: Over recent months, the national price point of the rectal indomethacin suppository (manufactured by G&W Laboratories, Inc, South Plainfield, NJ, USA, and distributed by Iroko Pharmaceuticals, LLC, Philadelphia, Pa, USA), used under guideline recommendation for prophylaxis of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) has risen more than 3200%, from approximately $10 USD to anywhere from $320 to over $400 USD for 100 mg rectal indomethacin. Currently, 100 mg oral indomethacin costs less than $2 USD. The recent cost increase is passed on directly to the patient. https://www.giejournal.org/article/S0016-5107(19)32241-2/fulltext]
Today on GoodRx:
2 x 50mg indomethacin oral capsules $1.96 - 8.84
https://www.goodrx.com/indomethacin?form=capsule&dosage=50mg&quantity=2&label_override=indomethacin]
2 x 50mg indomethacin suppositories $109.66 - 664.12
https://www.goodrx.com/indomethacin?form=suppository&dosage=50mg&quantity=2&label_override=indomethacin]
IMHO Especially medications that are guideline recommendations should have prices capped.
Three predictions
1. Biden's speech at Dem Convention will be best in HISTORY and a well-deserved victory lap.
2. Kamala Harris will win!
3. POTUS Harris will keep prosecuting Trump and his cronies as America deserves.
BRING! IT! ON!
