  • Oh my god, Trump wants to lower drug prices, so he’s doubling the price of medications available from literally nowhere else.

    Years ago, I worked at a hospital that hired an old psychiatrist who we quickly realized was prescribing Geodon to almost everyone. Schizophrenia? Geodon. Bipolar? Geodon. Depression? Geodon. Borderline personality disorder? Geodon. Well, he only last a few weeks before being relieved of duty, and turns out he was in the early stages of Alzheimer’s.

    This story is about Donald Trump and tariffs.












  • So I work with people experiencing homelessness, and can tell you with authority that there are often times when we know someone meets criteria for guardianship and would genuinely benefit from it, however they have no known next of kin and the alternative state-initiated process can take years.

    Based on what I’m reading, they’re not talking about seeking guardianship for someone just for being homeless, they’re talking about people who have debilitating medical or psychiatric conditions, which often co-occur with homelessness. I think this is a good thing, and I wish my state would support enhanced guardianship capacity for the civilians who need this.

    I notice the title posted here has been edited to remove “some” homeless veterans, which was already doing the heavy lifting as clickbait for the NYT. This effort is clearly not aimed at homeless veterans, but some homeless veterans may be impacted if they meet guardianship criteria.
