I refuse to respond to Skrmetti by breaking up our community. It doesn't matter if you medically transition, socially transition, both, or neither. It doesn't matter if you're binary or nonbinary or genderqueer or agender. I see you. I love you. We will get through this. And we will undo this.

I don't like linking wapo these days but the story of how this guy is probably going to die because the idiots have cut the staff at NIH and his CAR-T is locked up in a freezer somewhere is beyond the pale.

I also think the guys are keeping track of the weird/off color shit I say bc I said "They need to stop being a fucking pussy and have a conversation not an email." and 20 min later it was a new quote for the board that came out of the miasma

Listen to Black women got real optional

Had to explain how concentrations work to a fellow last night. I am begging you to stop using AI and ChatGPT for everything. It may not be the actual cause of this issue but it feels root cause in a lot of academic settings

“It’s a lovely rest from having to think about the time I was 11 and congratulated a family friend on a pregnancy that turned out to be a food baby. Or the day I tried to join in a thing called ‘banter’ and made Ryan Wilkins cry so hard his mum had to come and get him from sixth form.”

Random question but why don't streaming services release bonus DVD type material? I loved a good directors commentary or a behind the scenes look at some of the art that goes into creating certain films. I feel like it would be low cost to make and a lot of people might watch it 🤷‍♀️

This Squid Games for aid thing is so fucking awful

doctor treating kristi noem taking a long, hard look at a bottle of sodium pentobarbital, then muttering the Hippocratic oath through clenched teeth

If I hated this anymore my head would explode: One of the first things that's actually made me seriously consider leaving this godforsaken state. I can't believe they're just going to let the oil companies poison the rivers/water supply. Nobody wants fracking water coming out of their faucets.

“Mark Cuban: our next billionaire president?”

The thing I liked about Kevin Can F*** Himself is that it knew the limited potential of its premise and wrapped everything up nicely in two seasons. Very inventive and clever mixing of TV genres to convey character motivations. Also the titular Kevin is too convincing as a sitcom meathead.

I’m not spam I’m a real person with unimaginable story NPR spoke with me and shared my story I lost my six kids my parents, my siblings I was the only one who made it out alive from our home Me and my baby need your support Please help us and follow my new account🙏🏻 gofund.me/b4901a75

A local ER nurse was shot and nearly blinded at a Portland ICE protest by a projectile that federal officers fired into the crowd.  He still demands to be heard.

I’m seeing a lot of people posting about how sick they are with a “summer flu” Main complaints? Fatigue, extremely sore throat, fever and loss of smell. It’s Covid. The Nimbus variant is here & appears to be more transmissible. It’s time to wear a respirator, clean the air & stay home when sick!

Adriana Smith did not give birth to a baby. She was used as an incubator, cut open, and a baby was taken out of her lifeless body. A Black woman was used as a science experiment.

“i asked chat gpt” “i asked grok” Jeeves would kill you where you stand

Apparently the NYT is about to publish a story that suggests Planned Parenthood might stop providing abortions in order to preserve federal funding. President Alexis McGill Johnson says that’s never going to happen and “any claims to the contrary are an outright lie.”

There should be calls for congressional hearings about this: “innocent American killed by Trump’s pointless birthday party” www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

A Muslim candidate for mayor of the nation's largest city, defending the rights of a Jewish candidate for mayor, who was arrested for defending the rights of immigrants not to face detention without warrants. This is the kind of solidarity Trump and his goons fear.

People fear disability Capitalism and ableism teaches folks that disabled people are “less than” Doomed to be left by the wayside “Better off dead” As a result the general public is terrified of becoming “one of us”. We are a minority group you can join at any time. Support disability rights!

Under no circumstances can New Yorkers let Zohran Mamdani become mayor of Israel.

My partner & I were trying to ID a bird we heard while walking and the guy who had stopped his car to let us pass got out and was like "it's a frog, actually. Cope's Gray. I do frog surveys... Sorry" And then got in his car without a word and drove off. Absolute king

JFC. Even after what the Trump regime has done to LA, the state of California, both Schiff & Padilla (!!) decided to vote with Republicans to give Trump a massive gift on crypto. Same goes for Gillibrand and NY. Also shame on Booker, Kim & Warnock. A disgraceful list - especially this week.

like, the fact that there wasn't a shelter in place for the cities is pretty bad. I get why they didn't, but shutting down a nearby suburb and not the cities reachable by freeway from around there immediately? While conducting searches around his home in a majority Black neighborhood? Come on.

I don't have words for the cruelty of this. On everyone. I can't even begin to verbalize my thoughts on this bc it's too close to things that traumatized me but my first 3 years of practice were in a NICU hospital. The youngest babies that survived were 23-24 weeks and most of those were rough.
