    Good morning I have some personal news: I am moving back to upstate New York. The main reason is to be closer to family, and my wife and I both terribly miss the region we grew up in. There's also a bit more for our kids there, which has become apparent as they've grown up.

    So, a shipment of crickets for the lizard arrived via FedEx today. It was my first time ordering bulk crickets off the internet, and I naively assumed that they would be in like, a bag or some other contraption to facilitate easy transfer to another container. They were not.

    Most people don’t understand how *new* most cancer treatments are. The treatment that cured my lymphoma was developed when I was a teenager. The treatments that will cure our children’s cancers are being put on hold right now.

    Tons of talented scientists are losing their funding because a bunch of very rich people want a tax cut. Countless cures and treatments will be postponed or perhaps they will never come to fruition.

    I make this information public because if I do not send any tweets tomorrow, it is because my wife murdered me after finding a cricket in our bed in the middle of the night. And that's the news from Red Lake Falls.

    When lawmakers say "I want to vote for X but I won't because of the death threats I'm receiving," that sends a clear message to extremists that death threats work.
