Bewildering, and time consuming. Helping my mother with Medicare enrollment and purchasing a stand-alone dental plan through Massachusetts health exchange has been an enlightening (and at times, maddening) experience.

2 - Here's what we learned... Choosing plans is bewildering. It's near impossible to get straight information about plan options and when it comes to enrolling and staying enrolled, people struggle.

I always hear the question: who let the dogs out (who who who who)? With respect to The Baha Men, I prefer WHEN let the dogs out (when when when when)? ‘Cause guess what, Greyhounds? Our 2nd season starts 7/23! Can I get a Bah Amen!? That’s what I used to think they were called

I’ve been exploring independent roasters during quarantine. My first order from @VeloCoffee came with a hand-written thank you. Thank you, Velo! Excited for my first cup tomorrow.

Four years ago, I started saving the best of the incredibly bizarre, stupid and bad vibes photos being rapidly produced by the Trump administration to cathartically post today. Here is my Surreal Trump Photo Dump

Hear me now and believe me later. This is 100% a side effect of spending all-day-every-day with your own children.

Well, this is a bit awkward. COVID-19 may cause long-term erectile dysfunction in men. Yet another reason to heed public health advice as the coronavirus continues to spread. on.nbc10.com/KkxOXBL

Co-sign this proposal 100%!

Yes, remake it every year. In a particular way. 1/3 of the movie should be catching up with the original characters, now 25 years older, a la Before Midnight. What’s happening with Jamie and Aurelia now? Did David and Natalie stay together after he lost the 2007 election? 7/x



I turned on my exposure notifications this morning.

NYT's exec editor Dean Baquet on the death of Alan Finder, who tested positive for coronavirus a few weeks ago: "He touched many of our lives at The Times and will be missed."

One of the things that frustrates me most about the media is hot takes that over-generalize one finding. Gawande's take on the NEJM article is nuanced, and takes into account the limitations of the intervention, and key questions that stem from the analysis and results.

Can we lower medical costs by giving the neediest patients better care? 9 years ago my @NewYorker article, The Hot Spotters, highlighted the heroic work of the Camden Coalition to try and prove it could. newyorker.com/magazine/2011/…
