It's #P4A2024 bingo card time! This year, I coded up the bingo cards, so the fonts are a little bit less fun, but now it's so much faster to generate the cards.

Nerdfighteria is truly a wondrous and terrifying force in this world. #pizzamas

Today is the first day of #Pizzamas! What is Pizzamas? @emtheworst has the full breakdown for those who are new to the charity-driven holiday: goodgoodgood.co/articles/pizza… @johngreen @hankgreen @DFTBArecords #PizzaJohn

I've heard more global health leaders use the word "nerdfighteria" in the last two days than in the previous 46 years.

WHAT. IMMEDIATELY GOT IT

@Pandora45553807 A friend recently made me popcorn! Just imagining all the joy you can create doing so! All set!

@mattpalka Hi Matt, Would you be able to help out my NYC students with a financial literacy project via donorschoose? All donations are being matched. Thank you!. Pandora donorschoose.org/project/pop-in…

@DFTBArecords Sounds fragile. Tea pot or thermos of some kind?

What am I? 12 days until the answer is revealed!

.@DanaherCorp has shut down their public-facing phone line. I guess they don't love hearing from the public. That's odd, because they were happy to accept over $250,000,000 of public money to develop their GeneXpert Machine.

Are you familiar with the printer ink business model? Sell a printer for a modest profit because you'll make the real money from forcing people to buy your ink? IT's also known as the razor blade business model. Danaher sells its diagnostic machines at a small profit and then price gouges for tests--thus denying millions access to affordable, accurate tests for tuberculosis. And then THEY BRAG ABOUT IT TO THEIR SHAREHOLDERS. Just listen to @DanaherCorp CEO Rainer Blair. #PeopleOverProfits

John Green & Grassroots Activists Pressure Danaher To Drop Price of Tuberculosis Test goodgoodgood.co/articles/john-…

Good morning, @CepheidNews and @DanaherCorp. Admin, today is going to be difficult. I'm sorry about that. It isn't about you--I'm sure you're lovely. This is about your bosses price-gouging the world's poorest countries through Cepheid's functional monopoly on tuberculosis tests. #peopleoverprofits

Please join me in wishing price-gouging diagnostics corporations a good night of sleep, because they're gonna have a long day tomorrow.

Before the final lyric "only shooting stars break the mold" the handwritten lyric that didn't make the final cut of the song was 'Wave bye bye to your soul."

@ everyone. don’t make me tap the sign.
