do you know what else unleashes a wave of new ideas and unfinished projects? My PMDD-induced hypomania.

This is insane. I cannot believe we are such a trash fire country that CNN, who makes the news, is now in bed with the company that lets you bet on the news. As if they couldn't lose any more credibility now we'll know execs are spiking stories based on how they bet and not just to suck Trump off

The first grader has been separated from his dad for almost a week, following ICE abducting them for the third time this year! ICE refuses to disclose the 6 yr old’s location.
WHERE IS YUANXIN?

Call your Reps & ask them to pressure ICE/DHS to reunite Fei & Yuanxin & release them!

So many apps are releasing their year in reviews but for many of the health tracker ones, the entries are inputted manually so it doesn't necessarily give you a full picture of everything, just a full picture of stuff people bother recording. Which is a bummer cause stats are fun.

I love holiday weekends in New York. It’s like a city-wide Parents Weekend

I named one of my ipods "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern" so when it needed to be charged I could say "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead."

Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.

I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

I definitely understand why people turn to ChatGPT for companionship. Twitter was my social hub for YEARS. I could find instant conversation, support, answers, whatever. But now with Twitter what it is and everyone dispersed on different platforms, there’s a hole where community used to be.

Want to see something:

Have you ever cured a friend of a women's health problem because you told them something their doctor didn't bother mentioning?

I cured by hairdresser's recurring BV because her doctor never told her that baths can fuck with your PH levels.

I used to write a "best of" blah blah blah list for a website every month and the push is always for affiliate links not for what's actually good. You won't see indie brands on these ever.

FYI: If you ask ChatGPT for "the best" xyz, it's going to take what it sees most often from sites it trusts. HOWEVER, many of those sites' "best of" lists don't actually test the products but go based on amazon reviews or PR contacts so basically don't trust LLMs for anything.

Nursing is no longer counted as a 'professional degree' by Trump admin The Department of Education has excluded nursing as a "professional degree" program as it implements various changes to student loans.

Ummm, were you all aware of this bullshit???

The Department of Education has excluded nursing as a "professional degree" program as it sets about implementing various measures regarding student loans laid out in President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill."

Instead of hiring more immigration judges, the Department of Justice just posted an ad for "deportation judges." join.justice.gov
