I work in the digital healthcare space and the guys working in ONC are quite open that their goal is that a PCP will be for the top 10% and everyone else will be 'monetized' with a shitty AI app. Look up HTI-5
I was one of Alex's nursing faculty at MCTC. This is simply devastating. He was a good student and I knew he'd be a good nurse. Im so sorry for you and his VA family. May his memory be a blessing and an example of what a nurse is.
I can confirm this from the civil rights movement. They knew some of them would be hurt, arrested or even killed. They did it anyway.
In the Portland Oregon protests last year, if I recall, it kept the medics from being assaulted but some were still tear gassed. I think a medic in LA was shot with a less-than-lethal projectile. π€·π»ββοΈ
I feel triumphant. I got my maga cousin to donate to World Central Kitchen by telling her they were helping people affected by flooding in my area, Washington state. Her daughter and grandkids live here too. It wasn't until she'd donated that their story on their Gaza efforts popped up.
Another thing I'm feeling nostalgic about is Rubio reminding us why the Cuban revolution happened.
I've been feeling nostalgic today and thinking of the time I thought Mitt Romney was too corrupt to be president. I was so naive back then.
Reached out to the White House and the Pentagon to ask what they know about the death toll of their strikes in Venezuela.
The White House referred us to the Pentagon.
And the Pentagon referred us to the White House.

Brown U kids who survived USA 389th mass shooting of 2025 will now pay out of pocket for their healthcare, because USA guarantees guns but not health.
Australians who survived the 1st mass shooting in 29 years will pay nothing for healthcare because Australia guarantees health & regulates guns.
Why not both until the equinox?

A thing that surprised me the most about Edgar Wright's reimagining of Stephen King's "The Running Man" was that the hero's wife knit sweaters, socks & baby clothes from thrifted yarns. π± π§Ά
I really liked the movie. I think better than the original and I loved the original. Sorry, Arnold. π«ΆπΌ
Isn't it interesting that most of the occupations that the Trump regime no longer considered "professions" and not eligible for #studentloans are the same ones that many #H1B visas are issued for? Just an observation.
My local city election results are in. 5 of the 7 city council positions were up for the vote. 4 of the 5 encumbants lost. Those 4 were all Republicans. The 5th was a Democrat.
I am shocked my Red city flipped Blue. I did not see that coming.
I deposited my ballot into the drop box at my local city hall.
The local election is November 4th (tomorrow) but there was a line of people at 3 pm today at City Hall dropping off their ballots. No Federal candidates at all and there was a line. Amazing. πΊπ²
Just curious, but now that Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has had his Princehood removed, can he be prosecuted for SA?
100% They are fine with collateral damage, even if it takes out their own voters.
This is going to be like abortion. Are boob jobs "gender affirming"? Removals to cure or prevent cancer? Penile reconstruction? Almost all of the surgeries aren't just for the Trans community.
There are so few trans people, just leave them alone.
I stand corrected. Thank you for the information.
I always vote for somebody, even if it is The Owl Party candidate. I'm thinking of the low engagement voters where any effort is too much.
We haven't even heard a "You go, Greta!" from her. Does she only exist when it's time to campaign for the next presidential election?
Maybe they should put a "I hate all y'all" option on the ballot so perhaps they vote down ticket or for referendums?

Today I was thinking that for the first time I finally understand the way Romans felt when Julius Caesar declared himself emperor, ending the Republic. Yeah, that is how my brain works.
The president himself has marveled at his own ability to move forward, telling donors to the ballroom about a conversation he had with officials involved with the project. βThey said, βSir, you can start tonight,β β Trump recalled during a recent dinner at the White House. βI said, βWhat are you talking about?β β βYou have zero zoning conditions. Youβre the president.β βI said, βYou got to be kidding.β β
One thing that is clear from the kicker to this excellent WSJ story on the WH ballroom is that Trump himself can't believe how easy it is to run roughshod over rules and traditions.
There's probably a metaphor in there somewhere.
