Elon Musk said DOGE made a mistake by cutting USAID’s Ebola prevention but it had been “restored.” That’s not true, current and former officials told me and @johnphudson.bsky.social. “There have been no efforts to ‘turn on’” Ebola prevention, said Nidhi Bouri, who oversaw team until January.

Got some calming treats for Shayera to see if they can help her anxiety. Only gave her three, as that's about as much as the instructions said she should have. After closing the container and not giving her any more treats, I would NOT describe her demeanor as "calm"

My apologies to Netflix TV show "The Åre Murders" because every time I glance at your name I just think it's just THE most straight-forward murder mystery title of all time "There Are Murders" but that is decidedly not correct

The most irrational and farfetched fantasy I have rn is the government calling a press conference that they start with saying "AAAAAAND scene!" and then they explain that this was just a really long fascism drill and boy did we get a failing grade, kids, let's try again

NGL part of me wonders, after years of social media being very normal for many people to use, if these tech billionaires collected a BUNCH of dirt on Republican politicians and their families and now it's why a Republican Congress is quietly approving of their power being ripped away by a dictator

My cat Shayera sometimes does a chirp in her half-sleep that means I'm laughing too loud. She's never done it before for a laugh from the speakers, until just now, where I found out Griffin McElroy also needs to quiet down and let her sleep

this canonical #BG3 quote from #Astarion happened in my first #Durge (resist) playthrough RIGHT in the middle of a bad week for me and it made me laugh SO much (with love) and I had to draw my out-loud in-real-life reaction to what he said (and WAY overdo it on details because it was fun)

Cowards all: Biden signs bills with anti-trans laws, Meta allows anti-trans rhetoric, Walmart and McDonald’s ditch DEI, Disney cuts trans stories. All this & Trump’s not even in office yet. Not surprising, but it shows how quickly they cede in advance because they only ever care for money & power.
