I really wanted him to got to prison but at this point I’ll settle for dead.

hospital lab waiting room OH when patient states he’s had same insurance for years & never had a fee before:

“We are allowing patients to pay their fee before they get their bill.”

Oh. How altruistic.

Drop in for a quick lab…. With only 30 people in front of me. Good thing it’s a UA … 🫠

For all the dog lovers. This is a classic. Worth seeing again.

Here’s what was NOT released today:

- the proffer agreement between Maxwell and the DoJ

- the agreement transferring Maxwell to club fed

- communications showing who waived Maxwell’s sex offender status allowing her transfer and possible work assignments outside prison

- the Epstein files

Achievement unlocked. On a temporarily busted Amtrak SEA-PDX. It’s kind of exciting? I’ve never had so much of a glitch riding the train.

This is Washington at its worst.

We need to ban Congressional stock trading.

I want a country where @sanders.senate.gov is bored.

I don't know this company but I've bought that fabric and have made towels with it for biking around in the heat. They're effective. Here they are doing this cool temp demo and it really does work like that. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQlH...

@sewingdeadgirl.bsky.social posting about her trip to Tulsa sewing machine museum reminds me I recently got one of my dream machines. need power/pedal and the case, but I got the grasshopper from my friend Rebecca of Queen Bee fame.

CACO? Congress always chickens out?

it’s even more demoralizing when the history you’re repeating is history you were around for the first time

Go to 2 Stroke or go to Posey’s in Kenton.

Lots of options! 2 Stroke or go to Posey’s in Kenton. Kenton is better in general … less catering to the Freightliner crowd like this MAGA hiding behind a “no flag policy”

Jesus effing Christ. Shoplifting is having a huge spike. I haven’t seen it “trendy” to shoplift in a long time. These two caught in PDX on camera & by the owner. “I’m sorry” on repeat as they gave it all back.

Talk to your kids. Small business owners can’t afford this shit.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

#hrt birth control psa…. If your estrogen patches don’t stay on your skin either, Lexcam adhesives that go over stelo/dexcom/blood sugar monitors work really well. I tried everything: the blow dryer trick, sock glue, KT tape. Lexcam is the best.

We’ve already militarized the domestic police force. If the military can just be called in for any reason, why do cops need military weapons? They should give those back.

I hope they never stop tweeting. My god.

SEIU California | SEIU California President David Huerta Injured, Detained at ICE Raid in Los Angeles We are proud of President Huerta’s righteous participation as a community observer, in keeping with his long history of advocating for immigrant workers and with the highest values of our movement…

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing.

ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him.

Has anyone yet started clocking the sheer amount of time Cheeto has had protests & violent police responses under his times in office compared to other presidents?

Post to the subreddit r/AskHistorians: What was navigation like for vehicle drivers in the United States before the internet and GPS? Before GPS devices and smartphones/cellular internet networks were a thing (Garmin company was founded 1989), millions of Americans were already getting around driving without the use of those inventions. How did they navigate? Did everyone need stacks of maps? Were drivers frequently lost? Did everyone have to understand the interstate system and use intuition to guide them? How burdensome was driving before GPS? Did drivers pay people to calculate an optimal route for them?
