"I got really blocked up after eating too much hominy, and while I was in the hospital, that's when I learned I was pregnant with you!" Cornileus regretted asking his mother about his namesake.

Never forget that Fascists are so bad at making art Kim Jong il had to kidnap a South Korean film director and his actress wife just so he could make a Godzilla ripoff.

the reason 101 dalmations looks like that is because disney incorporated xerography (ie early photocopying technology) into the animation process. rough pencils (by mostly male animators) were copied onto the cels so that disney could fire the (mostly female) inkers. remember that art can lie to you

This is how the NRA gained so much political influence for relatively cheap; they sponsored local events, distributed newsletters, announced calls to action... they are visible in communities that broadly support them. They see the value of the individual, even if it's only as a disposable tool.

What a perfect impersonation of Satya.

So now the’re death camps.

It's frustrating how often US healthcare systems disregard employee health and safety in favor of not having to enforce rules with uncooperative HCPs, patients, and visitors. (to say nothing of how we still give far too many passes to the assault and harassment of nurses, specifically)

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen *Everyone has stories like this*

I get to do this a little bit. I was trying to warn a colleague off investing in a cryptocurrency that was almost certainly a pump and dump scheme, and I convinced him by asking him how his old NFT and metaverse investments were doing.

Discworld QOTD, from Maskerade “Nanny Ogg was basically a law-abiding person when she had no reason to break the law, and therefore had that kind of person’s attitude to law-enforcement officers, which was one of deep and permanent distrust.”

Gears of Warfarin

If someone tried to tell me my full-term healthy 3 month old couldn't get the RSV shot, I would've thrown such a huge fit. Heck no. I've been an ER doctor for 10 years, and the number of babies we used to have to admit for RSV then vs now is stunning.

One day we'll have good research to explain why so many economists and physicists feel compelled to make declarations about subjects they have no expertise in that are so diametrically contrary to available evidence.

If Democrats can't win on "the administration is full of and covering for kiddie rapers and they're using your tax money to invade Venezuela and pay fat Nazis to shoot your neighbors" then GET THE FUCK OUT OF POLITICS

Telling isn't it that all the "protect our girls" people are still on X despite what Grok is doing.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

The only error here is that it wound up being more honest than they planned.

I hate that just after the US did another massive war crime my feed is, instead, full of discourse that basically boils down to how easily social media users are mobilized against randos over petty bullshit.

I can’t fully articulate the way my stomach dropped when I saw this headline. Please know the evidence has not changed. The people in charge have changed, and they did not consult any relevant experts or the public. “This new policy has not been vetted with pediatricians, the public, or the ACIP”

"This is a man drunk on repulsive levels of executive pay and global power, whose brain has been turned to mush by Linkedin and executive self-improvement podcast speak to the point where he writes shit like this down..."

Rarely do you read news this positive these days. Other US cities should seriously consider implementing congestion pricing.

wow this is bar after bar of straight fire I do not have the subject matter expertise to know the veracity of Petro’s claims but I do know that the cited history of armed struggle of Bolivian Latin America runs deep across scores of countries and is a tradition Trump tramples on at his own peril

Love this from Guillermo del Toro

Days after his third dementia screening in six months the president of the United States, who is an open pedophile, abducts a foreign head of state

I think it's important to keep reminding ourselves that congressional inertia is not normal

Historically, signs of collapse in an empire include desperate, meandering resource campaigns, spiraling debt, and civil unrest. Debt is exacerbated by severe political corruption and endless wars for assets (oil/natural gas) When social safety nets fail and inflation rises, people eventually revolt

My New Year’s resolution: To warn that medical institutions like University of California, San Francisco, ushered Dr. Vinnay Prasad to the highest levels of government while firing those advocating for science-based medicine. Do not support. Do not apply. This institution is beneath you.

Another attack on mail-in ballots.

This is too pure.

You can very clearly see why someone whose job it is to protect war criminals would need this pulled from the airwaves: It’s visible proof the Trump administration is operating concentration camps.

I know it won’t matter because democrats are useless and even if they take back power they’ll just have some limpdick reconciliation message, but this is literally going to kill people and RFK Jr should spend the remainder of his life in a cell in a just world, just as Musk should.

Subutex implies the existence of domutex

One of my coworkers took a photo of me and immediately used some AI tool to turn it into a cartoon abomination and I can't express how much it makes my skin crawl. I can't stop randos from taking my photo, but I damn sure ain't consenting to having my picture taken for the foreseeable future.

Hospital Holiday Songs Countdown #11: It's the Most Wellbutrin Time of the Year

I will be so disappointed if the eventual US govt AI bailout doesn't get branded "Cash for Clankers".

Who knew there was such a vas deferens in pricing between the dick and balls

Hospital Holiday Song Countdown #10: Frosty the SNOMED (this is for all you informaticists out there)

People should have pushed back harder against gambling mechanics in games. It started with horse armor and now you've got sports games where people will buy $500 in in-game currency just to play a team's full roster. This is exactly the time to respond aggressively before it's normalized.
