one-panel cartoon with the caption "Your mom is so redneck, she thinks Mesopotamians is a really large quantity of Potamians." The drawing features a lot of bronze-age Mesopotamians looking uncomfortable in a small, crowded room.

I like Bregman's Cubs contract (5 years; $175M) than Bellinger's Yankees contract (5/162). Way to go Jed! #Cubs

The US Military is still loyal to the constitution ... so Trump had to create his own army of brownshirts who will do his bidding in spite of the law, in spite of the courts, and in spite of any human decency. ICE has to go - forever.

/ Defiant of international law
/ Basically an armed robbery

Physician authority and influence Who shapes thinking and who’s just good at getting attention?

Bryan Vartabedian (aka "Doctor V") has been thinking and writing about physician influence for a long time. His recent blog post (open.substack.com/pub/33charts...) is a great read - and yet another argument for why industry needs to be more careful and detailed than ever in finding the TRUE KOLs.
