If you think whit @tjparker and @elliotcohen did at PillPack was special, their plan for @GeneralMedicine is astonishing.
TJ Parker of @GeneralMedicine on healthcare's new bottleneck, and why getting care should be as easy as buying anything else online:
"Advice is becoming really abundant, and getting to a list of answers with a GPT has become a thing that almost everyone is doing now in healthcare."
"But I think that answer almost always comes back to a set of tasks for you to go do. It might be, you should go call and book an appointment with a doctor, call and book an appointment with a specialist, go get these sets of labs, or go get this imaging done."
"While advice is abundant, you then are immediately stuck back with the realities of the current healthcare system."
"We've for a very long time felt like the best modality for that is a store. Everything else in your life, you search and browse the options available to you, you understand what they cost, you understand when they're available, and you go buy the thing."
"The time is right for something like this in healthcare because the bottleneck is no longer advice, the bottleneck is taking action on that advice."

I imagine that @jaytatum0 can sort it out quietly with @SteveKerr and @realgranthill33 after the Games without airing his concerns in public on the way to the Final.
Would love to see @KamalaHarris outline a vision for ethics reform and restoring institutional trust in government.
Should:
- apply to all three branches
- be forward-facing, and allow transgressors to come clean
- have incredibly sharp teeth
- be written in plain language
100% of my 2024 Twitter activity involves looking for NBA hot takes and spending the next two hours down a @dieworkwear Korean tailoring rabbit hole.
I deeply admire @JoeBiden and think history will regard him as an exceptional president.
I also have deep misgivings about his candidacy.
Where is the courage to lead in the @DNC ? @BarackObama @GovWhitmer @GavinNewsom @JoshShapiroPA @AndyBeshearKY / inaction is neglect

Uncle Tupelo’s last LP ‘Anodyne’ is a collection of working class anthems that fully alchemizes their CCR-Minutemen fixations into something tragic, unique and visionary. The NAFTA-related miseries soon to be visited on the working poor. In so many ways, the end of the beginning.
don't usually do these, but inspired by @aweissman's extraordinary list.
Make a 20-track comp of your all-time fav tracks, each artist can only feature once. Not the 'best' songs, the ones that bring instant joy the second you hear the first note, the ones that give other people the best insight into what stirs your soul. Share when ready. #20tracks
Maybe @Everton and @WilliamsRacing should merge into a single, flatulent entity dedicated to the idea that 1983 glory might somehow be converted into modern competitiveness.
People don’t think of the #Celtics as a great player development organization, but they’ve turned Caleb Martin into Kobe Bryant in a little under two weeks.
Hey @NBAonTNT @ReggieMillerTNT can’t remember: do the Heat feature several undrafted players?

I’ve been bingeing The Necks all week while traveling in Japan, on the basis of @blackfaurest’s effusive praise. Absolutely phenomenal stuff, and I’m a bit floored not to have found them in earnest before.
