Let AI be the asbestos of 2035!

O’Keefe was put into another vehicle with three agents. She says they started taunting and mocking her, and called her ugly. “The ICE agent who had pepper sprayed into the vents of my car said ‘you guys gotta stop obstructing us, that’s why that lesbian b—— is dead,’ verbatim, speaking of Renee Good. Which filled me with absolute rage and shock that you could say that to one of her neighbors,” she said. They were brought to the Whipple Building and released after eight hours. They weren’t charged for a crime. Sigüenza said he was brought to a room with agents from the Department of Homeland Security and asked to provide the names of people he knows that are undocumented or the names of protest organizers in exchange for money or legal protection.

We are so far beyond "show us your papers." They don't want to see the papers. We are now into the "give us the names" stage of the occupation.

Canadian officials say US health institutions no longer dependable for accurate information Misinformation from the Trump administration is cited as fuelling Canadians’ concerns over childhood vaccinations

Hi, my name is Emily and I'm on day 5 of Prednisone, please insert all your food

Cool

The day I'm home for a conference is the day my neighbors decide to replace their roof 😩🫠

hahahaha(help)haha

The new MDI (inhaler) and green house gases study that just came out is making people crazy and when you share the actual research to show that they aren't going to just take away meds, no one gives a shit.

This is why you can't combat stupidity, no one wants to learn 🫠😩

Not sure the extent of our activities but our hospital will try to celebrate and bring awareness in some fashion. We (my department) LOVE to talk about health literacy!

may I speak with the primary poster in your household?

Today in #HospitalLibraries

A lot of people would say that having regulars in my type of library would be depressing but I get to build the most meaningful relationships. I see patients grow and heal, I also see families grieve, and my colleagues are anchors in this tempest.

And I love them all.

It's nice of food companies to tell us when their product would be "best if used" by but assuming I'm going to forget it, you should also give me a "worst if used around" and then I can decide how close I am to that.

My sister got a new kitten and it immediately decided to loaf on a watermelon and bless us with this picture.

I am once again asking publishers to put which number a book is in the series either on the cover, spine, or title page/monograph.

My leader: It's annual eval time
Me: I've been keeping notes about what I've accomplished this year, I think I'm ready
Leader, gently: Emily, I appreciate all the thought and care that you put into your eval but maybe this year you don't need to write so much
Me: oh 🫠 well maybe I can tone it down

How's your Monday? Here's mine:

Am I the only one reading White House tweets in Bane’s voice in my head?

The more coverage a story gets, the more important readers think it is.

So it matters when the NYT inflates flimsy Dem ‘scandals’ while downplaying real, criminal ones from Trump and Republicans. It’s not just bad judgment — it shapes public perception.

They 👏 don't 👏 care 👏

But seriously, they are too afraid to actually do anything
