Why does @Fidelity not provide rates of return for 2025 for investments? Nowhere to be found on my Fidelity Portfolio page. The “View your Performance “ doesn’t give this simple, basic number. I contacted @Fidelity - after 25 minutes, they said didn’t know. WTH???


Tried to book a room with @Marriott The most frustrating experience. The website doesn’t allow to book more than a one-night stay- entered 4 days, keeps reverting to 1. Call the number for reservations- they insist on sending you to the horrible website.


You’ve heard of a dumpster fire? This was a real dumpster fire off Parkway East in Pittsburgh today. Trash truck caught fire- dumped it all on the road to save the truck.


The picture, and reality. Thanks ⁦@ChickfilA

Bought new @Kia EV6 2years ago. Over weekend, car died, wouldn’t start. Kia supposed to provide free towing- got lied to for 3 hours waiting to be picked up. I cancelled and got car there myself. Kia Monroeville can’t find anything wrong- says battery was dead. No reason why.

Really great piece examining the business practices of medical journals. Authors provide manuscripts for free, and also have to pay to have it published! "Why I left the editorial board of the prestigious scientific journal NeuroImage ..." statnews.com/2024/02/01/sci… via @statnews

Samuel Peasah, @CBGood23, & more found a financial incentive & refill reminder program was associated with improved adherence to antithrombotic meds, reduced ED use, & increased RX costs, but not in total pharmacy, medical, or total cost of care. 🗞️ jmcp.org/doi/10.18553/j…
