The ICU where Alex Pretti worked had a little ceremony to honor him.

Yeah seriously, I was trying to find info on Minneapolis today and it was so oddly sparse. Like what?

You're a union, reach out to your sister orgs and call for a general strike. Be the labor leaders we know you can be and lead us. Please.

Thanks for reminding us to lean into community when everything sucks so bad. Donated.

Opinion | Endless Gossipy Chatter About Epstein. One Glaring Omission.

Their names have been redacted but the people he abused haven't been; they've stood up and told their stories and we should be listening closer, even if it is uncomfortable to do so.

I've been in North Carolina so this is the kinda shit I've been on lately

Empty podiums and rooms for some good talks at the Collaborative Family Healthcare Association conference because many VA clinicians, researchers, and educators were either furloughed or not funded for travel. Thanks legislative branch, you suck (you too executive branch, tbh).

Climate refugees need official designation as such and additional federal and international aid accordingly. We all made this problem and it's going to get worse.

Don't threaten us with a good time!

The martini is dry but the plants are wet

Screenshot of text that reads: "DuckDuckGo has introduced a new feature allowing users to filter out Al-generated images from search results, addressing growing concerns over synthetic content overwhelming authentic visuals online. The filter can be activated through a dropdown in the Images tab, search settings, or by using a dedicated Al-free domain: noai.duckduckgo.com. The system relies on curated blocklists, including uBlockOrigin's Huge Al Blocklist, to detect and suppress Al-generated imagery. While not perfect, it significantly reduces synthetic content visibility. This move sets DuckDuckGo apart from competitors like Google and Bing by giving users direct control over their exposure to Al-generated material. Source: TechCrunch".

And hey, if you hadn't heard yet, duckduckgo allows you to turn off AI search results and now allows users to filter out AI image results:

I love it when evolution considers aesthetics

I mean, same tho

Senators Susan Collins and Mitch McConnell looking like ancient feral ghouls whispering to each other.

A picture's worth a thousand years.

"log off" I see what you did there

This really is a crisis for rural America.

*prays for organized national general strike in solidarity*

Hell yeah... In a world of Toby Keiths, be a Woody Guthrie 🙌🏻

Love a vet who takes their oath seriously; we took an oath to the Constitution, not some petty clothes-less emperor.

It helps that use of hyperbaric chambers for wound care has a mountain of peer-reviewed research behind it. Pretty much every other use of them does not. And don't get me wrong, the peer review system is broke as hell but it is probably the best we can do right now.

My God, a Garth Marenghi meme, this is like citing the old magic; I love it.

Well I'm a huge baby because that kiss from his wife made me sob. Fucking good for them 🥹

Aw, so sweet of you, I get it, I really do. I'm irrationally pissed too. Those of us on the left here in AK have tolerated Lisa for a long time because she is one of the only kinda reasonable voices in the GOP and better than most alternatives up here. But this is too far. We're so done with her.

More than half of us are just as pissed as you. Js

Screenshot of an article with Lisa Murkowski scowling like the spineless coward she is with the title "GOP Senator Clara Trump's Bill Moments After Voting For It."

The face of spineless cowardice. Double dealing, fence-sitting, heartless cowardice. It all makes me sick. I wish her all the worst.

Article with the title "Chief Justice Roberts warns against heated political words about judges" and a picture of him holding his hands up to demonstrate how he likes to play with Trump's balls because he's a coward of a judge.

So, he thinks it's ok that masked men are pulling our neighbors off the street & deporting them to countries they aren't even from, but bitching about the judges who allowed it is too far?

How's this, him and his buddies are fascist enabling fucking cowards and I wish them the worst.

All kinds of terrible accusations against these two; chief among them from their adopted son.

Die Antwoord who abused their adopted son? 😬

It really is what it is. I feel like grief is like a physiological process; you can't rush your way through regular sleep or do it once and that's it forever. Sleep comes, runs its course, and mellows until next time, just like grief.

So real
