Even with all the collaborative work tools available out there, we don't talk enough about the very sophisticated practice of 2-3 colleagues editing a draft together by texting chunks of the draft back and forth 😬

@inquiline do you still have pigeonholes? It has been that long since I've been on a university campus.

Thinking about how if U.S. insurers could deny coverage for eg the treatment or hospitalization of a condition because of patient non-compliance with medication, for whatever reason, they probably would. "It's your fault you didn't take this medication, you pay the bill."

are there any mainstream institutional* news sources that have progressed even slightly from my default believing and reprinting without question everything police spokespeople say or put out?**

    **** maybe probably not? idk
    **** you could add” We were unable to verify this claim.”
