I was a test patient for one of the first measles vaccine. Although I had no agency in this, I am rather pleased to have helped to nearly remove the threat of this dangerous disease. Please, wherever you are, don't let the stupidists kill any more children. Get the vaccine.

The US just voted alongside Russia, Belarus and North Korea against a UN resolution to support Ukraine. This is a wake-up call for all those cheerleading Trump in our country.

Some news from rural Kansas -- A local solar company (SEK Solar) is going to "run out of work in about two weeks" due to federal funding freezes. They received a grant from the USDA for rural energy and have had to freeze their planned hiring of new staff. www.iolaregister.com/news/local-n...

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

This is just awful..."A significant number of Haskell Indian Nations University employees were laid off Friday pursuant to an order by President Donald Trump to cut the federal work force, the Journal-World has learned." The newspaper says 38 of 150 employees fired.

Slow improvement...but still a long ways to go. I walked for 1.6k on a cold and windy day (5F and 20 MPH wind). I'm still a long ways from being able to jog or orienteer. But feeling and moving a little bit better each day. youtu.be/umzFSdk9nBQ?...

People mistake leadership and management with power and control. When it's really about the opposite, autonomy. If you are leading, your goal is to actually give away control. You want to guide and empower your team to not be dependent on you.
