I was involved in government (California) when this switch happened. I vouch for this thread’s explanation. It was a hippie mistake, a notion that took hold. No one spoke up for asylums. It’s past time to reinvent them.
1/ This chart has been making the rounds lately, and since I am an American and have both worked in a mental hospital and been a criminal defense lawyer, I have opinions. The idea that insane people belong in institutions came under 2-pronged attack in the 1950s and 1960s.

Pluvicto the drug Scott is in desperate need for wouldn't exist if not for publicly funded research at Johns Hopkins, Purdue, University of Missouri, NIH and NCI
On Monday, I will ask President Trump, via X, to help save my life. He offered to help me if I needed it. I need it. As many of you know, I have metastasized prostate cancer. My healthcare provider, Kaiser of Northern California, has approved my application to receive a

@G_S_Bhogal Hating makes people feel superior while liking makes them feel inferior. That's why hating is more popular than liking.

You’ve been told microplastics are everywhere. In your food. In your blood. Even in your brain. You should panic. You should rage. But what if most of it was junk science? 🧵1/

It's incredible how low-IQ morons have institutionally captured the GOP. Sorry if you're a Republican, but your entire party is controlled by the dumbest mouth-breathers in the country. Your choices are to defect to the libs or just swim in idiot soup until your soul dies.
EPA Commissioner Lee Zeldin announces his agency is launching a major investigation into the right-wing conspiracies about chemtrails and weather manipulation to get to the bottom of it.

One thing that has always bothered me is people who say the media is biased against Trump. It's actually pro-Trump It would be impossible to be biased against Trump, because the media would have to devote more than 100% of its attention to his scandals to give them the

Very good @nytimes editorial board piece today hitting a bunch of important points: - Trump won by moderating on Soc Security and Medicare - Moderates do outperform - In a nationalized media environment, the brand value of the whole party moderating is even bigger than one cand

There are a lot of Democratic elected officials who care more about their own career than beating Trump

Again, this No Kings thing is not my bag. But the almost cultish refusal to understand the point by Trump’s usual apologists is bizarre. Yes: He was lawfully and legitimately elected. But Stephen Miller’s Jacksonian-Wilsonian theory that Trump has a “mandate” to do whatever he

I can't believe what I've just watched. A Jewish lawyer wearing a Star of David was arrested after the police alleged the symbol had "antagonised" pro-Palestine protesters. He was handcuffed and detained by police for almost TEN hours. DISGUSTING! Shame on you @metpoliceuk.

After hearing the umpteenth perfectly functioning Harvard student tell me she's "autistic," and also teenagers who shriek uncontrollably, self-mutilate, and never look at another person, I've seen firsthand how the ever-expanding "autism spectrum" diagnosis is worse than

You're afraid of criticism, just like the subjects of your articles. Try not being a coward.
The team at Colossus is breaking something in magazine journalism in a fascinating way. Let me try to articulate. Even just a few years ago, if you wanted to read a beautifully written, exhaustively reported and actually interesting piece on someone shaping a corner of the
