The heck. I searched eBay for tshirts. This was the 3rd shirt that came up. I'm shocked @eBay.bluesky.com allows this based on their community standards.

Somedays I can't read any of the words, I can only look at the pictures #STRESS #DogsOfBluesky

For herd immunity against measles, 92-95% of the population must be vaccinated. As a live vaccine MMR can’t be given to pts who are immune suppressed (including pts receiving chemo/radiation or immunosuppression) And it’s not effective in newborns. So if you CAN get it, we REALLY need you to.

It's the end of #LabWeek when Laboratory professionals are supposed to be celebrated. Not a single peep from my organization's leadership. Nothing. We celebrate ourselves. We know our work is essential. We know we save lives. But a tiny bit of recognition would sure go a long way.

OK #Southwest. After decades of being a loyal customer, I'm done now. Not that you'll notice the loss of my little trips, but you're just like everyone else now. So why would I have any preference for your flights?

In 1940 Dr Charles Drew discovered that blood plasma could replace whole blood in transfusions, revolutionizing the storage & shipment of blood, creating the blood bank & saving countless lives in WWII, despite the impediments of segregation.

You sang it, right? 🎶 Or is it just me?? 😂

Oh gawd. Back to #DogsOfBluesky I go. Here's The Unphotogenic Labrador Retreiver for your viewing pleasure.

Some days, really every day now, I just want to run away from home. Every damn thing is going to hell in a hand basket. I'm too tired to fight, too old for any country to want me, too poor to just leave anyway. Been working my whole damn life, but will never be able to retire. FML.

So thankful for #DogsOfBluesky, a place to escape the sheer terror of daily life. Here's a Self-Rolled Baby Shark Burrito-Hound for extra escapism

Three critical elections tomorrow. Florida's 1st district. Florida's 6th district. Wisconsin Supreme Court seat. The oligarchs can buy presidents, senators, and CEO's. But they can't buy the people. America has saved us before, now we save America. Vote.

#dogsofbluesky Oldie but a goodie

@quiltlovinlisa.bsky.social Hey, Lisa! In the olden days I used to be Donate*Blood. Saw you left FB, Mona said you were here. I'm not here much, but I just deleted my twitter acct so I might be here more. Hope you and the fam are good.

Non medical translation: Inflammation and cell death in the brain. Bad bad stuff.

My mom, mother of 7, lover of dogs, happy despite dementia, died on Jan 27, just a few weeks shy of her 90th birthday. She knew all her kids and grands till the end, great-grands were a little harder. I am crushed. I know she lived a long and wonderful life, but I'm still crushed. 💔

BOOM! Bishop Mariann Budde has responded to her critics who told her to apologize to Donald Trump. “I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.” Smash that repost if you agree she owes Trump ZERO apologies!! 🦋

Was thinking about the possibility of a new pandemic and no communication from any governmental organizations plus all the social media owned by techbros that fell in line and all I gotta say is THANK GOD FOR BLUESKY because it may actually be our best hope for actual information dissemination.

She's only still when she's sleeping #HoundMix #DogsOfBluesky

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Many of RFK’s health views come down to a central theme: the belief that natural things are good for us, and unnatural things are bad. While marketing has burned this appeal to nature fallacy into our brains, it is not a viable healthcare strategy👇🏽 open.substack.com/pub/yourloca...

Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde Hero.

How can I not lose hope when all I want to do is throw up? 🤮😪

@oliviajulianna.bsky.social I agree with @gtconway.bsky.social - It's the only thing that's made me smile today. Thank you!

This is gold.

It's not like I didn't expect what's happened today. But the reality of it is completely demoralizing.

This is hysterical. The President of Mexico was spotted wearing a “Make America Mexicana Again.” 🤣

Today is the last day to sign up for subsidized (free or reduced cost) health insurance through the ACA Marketplace on Healthcare.gov My colleague @jaredortaliza.bsky.social looks back at recent record high signups and discusses what may come next www.kff.org/quick-take/a...

@ryanmarino.bsky.social Wondering if you have an ideal list of drugs that should be included in a urine drug screen. We discuss this where I work and just go round in circles...

To #Greenland, #Canada, and #Panama I am so so sorry.

Let's talk about Hep B. There are a lot of myths about this virus & the vaccine used to prevent it. Hep B is a contagious blood borne virus that can cause severe lifelong problems & the vaccine is proven to prevent infection complications including liver cancer (the vaccine prevents cancer!)

Bezos has really upped the ante for billionaires debasing themselves to gain favor with Trump.👇 Cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit the Washington Post because it refused to print a cartoon mocking tech and media billionaires for sucking up to Trump. anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-qui...

Sen. Ruben Gallego’s son told Kamala Harris he’s sorry she didn’t win the election. Here’s her response:

I just wanna be a hobbit in a cozy hobbit hole with only hobbit worries (which snack to eat first) and hobbit responsibilities (finishing my book). 📚💙

For the 1st time in my life, I watched the vote for Speaker of the House and the speeches afterward. Well, as much as I could tolerate anyhow. I couldn't sit through all of Speaker Johnson's speech. The dingleberry on the end of his nose was getting too big.

My lovely neighbors have been shooting off fireworks since sunset today. I gave my puppers some hemp treats to ward off some of their anxiety, but they're a mess. Poor babies. #DogsOfBluesky #HomeFireworksSuck

Just your regular reminder.

As a newly-minted voter in 1980, President Carter was my choice. I didn't understand the drastic change in trajectory our country would take in 1981. But Jimmy Carter sure did. He spent the rest of his life being the better person, the best person, the example for the whole world. Godspeed, sir.
