@MBrand58224 @tallowqueen you should take the full course of antibiotics that youโre Rxโd for any infection.

@tallowqueen How long is doxy shelf-stable? Canโt just keep the last caplet from a prescription in your first aid kit?
English
Good time to remind people that through telehealth, you can fake a bacterial sinus infection if you know what to say. You will get a doxy script. A SINGLE dose of doxy is 87% effective in preventing if you find a tick within 72 hours. Most doctors wonโt prescribe it.
Informed NJ Nurses@InformedNJNurse
The problem with Lyme disease is that there are no reliable tests, including the Western blot, that can immediately detect infection in its earliest stages. That delay matters. Early symptoms are often missed or dismissed, allowing the disease to progress and become much harder to treat. Now, with growing concerns about tick populations being introduced by our government and a new Lyme vaccine on the horizon from Pfizer, we are at a critical and potentially dangerous moment. Prevention cannot rely on awareness alone. We need to have serious conversations about access to prophylactic treatment after high-risk tick exposure. Early intervention could mean the difference between a short course of treatment and long-term, life-altering illness, ranging from neurological complications to severe reactions, including life-threatening anaphylaxis.

@MaskedHottiee @tesladrianne @SkinnyTuna I had PEM after I had covid and then tried to push through it and keep working out as usual. I ended up spending 2 years barely able to walk my dog.

@tesladrianne @SkinnyTuna It's so wild because I read that exercise will help!!!UNLESS you have PEM, in which case it may ruin your life ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ

@nonbinartree I do love ginger. do you just add ground cuttlefish bone to something?? fascinating
English
@forestcreatures aw good im so glad :)) would highly recommend tumeric & ginger as well (tho, start small w the ginger) & my herbalist has recommended cuttlefish to try too so when that arrives i may guinea pig myself & see if i can just come off it entirely, will update how it goes on here โค๏ธ
English
whoever suggested i try slippery elm im sorry ive lost ur @ but THANK U SO MUCH i am in looove, its so protective of the GI tract that i have hopes it could work as an omeprazole alternative in a pinch! & its given me my ability to sing w/out iv fluids back which i missed sm ๐ฅบโค๏ธ

I'm sorry but why are you using any genAI model at all, much less to find a hex code
Taylor Lorenz@TaylorLorenz
Trying to find a hex code for a specific color, dropping it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini. They each give me a diff hex code. I run it through again multiple times on each model. Now each of the models are giving me different hex codes. I love this system

@Lozbine @PlasticDespair @TsaiMeLemoni okay, itโs โfucked upโ? is that better? โdisgustingโ?
English
@PlasticDespair @TsaiMeLemoni we already have a never ending supply of examples of how useless it is tho. Endorsing it is awful but using it for any reason is also awful.
English
@TsaiMeLemoni This is such a purposely dishonest take. She is making a point to how useless genai is. But, yes, if you purposely dishonestly interpret her tweet, you might come to the conclusion that Taylor is endorsing the use of ai.

English
โItโs extremely isolating being the only masker at my school of future doctors, but not getting sick or further disabled outweighs the risk that comes with conforming to others.โโClarisa is studying to be a physician, and teaching ๐ท-required ballet.

@IllinoisRecord @FireEyes66 @TaylorLorenz @lychiocake I have been, especially the environmental effects, but I still havenโt come across any studies that support your theory, so iโm asking what youโve seen because, as a scientist, I know I miss things sometimes.
English
@forestcreatures @FireEyes66 @TaylorLorenz @lychiocake There are so many peer reviewed papers but I honestly don't think you are being genuine in this discussion. And I am not a daily mask wearer. If I was, you would think I would be looking for any health and environmental effects as a pre caution.
English
@IllinoisRecord @FireEyes66 @TaylorLorenz @lychiocake i havenโt seen any science to deny, thatโs what iโm saying. is it possible? sure! thatโs why I said iโd still choose to mask. but just because something is possible doesnโt mean itโs true. do you have any peer-reviewed articles supporting this supposed science?
English
One comment ago you said the micro plastics worth the risk (eventhough masks are more about protecting others from spreading your own contagious disease than protecting yourself). I can respect you not caring about personal microplastic exposure or the environmental effects, I don't respect science denialism.
English
@IllinoisRecord @FireEyes66 @TaylorLorenz @lychiocake Iโve never seen any proof that N95s release microplastics into the wearers body; even if they did, I live in a city in 2026โฆ whatever they might be releasing would be minuscule compared to what my day to day exposes me to. masks also protect others which is a huge bonus to me
English
@forestcreatures @FireEyes66 @TaylorLorenz @lychiocake I respect your opinion and that you acknowledge the facts! It also sounds like you only wear masks in high risk situatuons whuch I reespect. I personally will take the virus over permanent micro plastics that also can kill me and are permanently disabling.

@IllinoisRecord @FireEyes66 @TaylorLorenz @lychiocake iโve spent maybe $100 on N95s for myself since the pandemic started 6 years ago. And iโll take a little extra microplastics over a disabling virus any day.
English
@FireEyes66 @TaylorLorenz @lychiocake It's big corporate desire to get you to buy a disposable product as well. Am I wrong that perpetual mask wearing can lead to dangerous PFOA exposure? The groups that you pretend to care about often re-use disposable masks leading to additional harm.

@LadyD66158293 @VicMellorForRI thatโs east providence, a different city
English
According to reports, Providence Mayor Brett Smiley wanted this mural of Iryna Zarutska removed.
Let that sink in.
A young Ukrainian woman was brutally murdered by a man with a long criminal history, and somehow the mural honoring her became the problem.
Why?
Because stories like this donโt fit their narrative.
They force uncomfortable conversations about what happens when failed Democrat policies around crime and criminal justice put dangerous repeat offenders back on the streets.
Itโs easier for failed leaders to erase the reminder than to answer for the policies and priorities that keep putting innocent people at risk.
We should be honoring victims and standing with their families, not trying to make their memory disappear.
Rhode Island deserves leadership with common sense, compassion, and courage.
