Trainspotting parodies usually bore the shit out of me, but I quite like this one.

Thrilling to see tickets shifting! Don’t wait. Please book. It’s a lovely but tiny theatre, perfect for the show but it’s only 50 seats! Some nights nearly sold out now.@mataharifilms @JasperRees @AndyRoom_ @WhiteBearTheatr

Let's be clear. Eli Lilly should apologize for increasing the price of insulin by over 1,200% since 1996 to $275 while it costs less than $10 to manufacture. The inventors of insulin sold their patents in 1923 for $1 to save lives, not to make Eli Lilly's CEO obscenely rich.

We regret to inform you that we will not be giving away insulin, a publicly funded invention that was given away by its creator to be given away to people so they don’t die. xitter.cf/LillyPad/status/159081…

If a fetus is a person at 6 weeks pregnant, is that when the child support starts? Is that also when you can’t deport the mother because she’s carrying a US citizen? Can I insure a 6 week fetus and collect if I miscarry? Just figuring if we’re going here we should go all in. – at Lexington, VA
