20-40% reduction of cancer specific mortality from leisure time physical activity (mostly walking) for breast, colon, and prostate cancer. I see value in walking. Resistance ex has value too, of course, but let's recall the mortality benefits from walking.

@leitaomd So sorry to hear. I lost my dad on February 9 to frontotemporal lobe dementia and the years prior were heartbreaking

Love you dad. Please donate to Alzheimer’s Research if you can. buyusfuneralhome.com/obituaries/Mar…

I had a great time learning about all the cool #placenta research done across Minnesota! Thank you to the organizers!

BREAKING: New polling shows Vice President Kamala Harris has erased Donald Trump’s lead in Pennsylvania and is now leading by 4 points.

BREAKING: In a stunning leak, JD Vance is found to be calling for a federal response to stop women from traveling from red states to blue states to receive reproductive healthcare. Retweet so all Americans hear this devastating leak.

@WendyHassonMD Truth!

What it’s like to be in healthcare right now: “We will pay you $2 for that pie” “But it costs me $4 in pie ingredients and $2 in human labor to make a pie. We need $6 to break even” “Sorry, we’ll only pay you $2 for that pie. We suggest you make many more pies that you also sell for $2/pie. New requirement is 6 pies/day” “But then we are still losing $4 per pie. How does making more pies help us?” “We just found out flour is on shortage so you’ll have to buy more expensive imported flour and will lose $5 per pie. Or you can consider making pies without flour.” “But I can’t make pies if we keep losing money on pies. And I can’t make pies without flour” “We suggest you ditch rolling pins and remove any fruit filling as a cost saving measure. And consider limiting how much time you bake the pie for to use less oven time” “But then how can I even make a pie that resembles a pie?” “We appreciate the question and have no response. We empower YOU to solve this problem. We have scheduled 4 meetings to discuss how you can make more pies with less ingredients and less oven time and less labor” “But it seems the root of the problem here is actually that we don’t get reimbursed fairly for our pies…” “Don’t say that out loud. Please get back to making pies with no filling and no flour and no rolling pins and be sure to attend the meetings.” #medtwitter #Pediatrics #insurance

Today’s SCOTUS decision means mifepristone remains available in states where abortion is legal. We're relieved, but this case isn’t over yet. Mifepristone shouldn't be at risk in the first place. Everyone deserves to get the medicine they need.

@lhamiltonwriter Hahaha-that was definitely me yesterday for my Spouse

Target today is literally full of men with their kids in tow, walking around the aisles going “I don’t know, would she like this?” I’m watching this poor teen try to save her mother’s Christmas by talking her dad out of buying a candle.
