Hi, I have diagnosed c-PTSD and this is true and if you suck at tetris, any bright coloured fast game requiring rapid eye movement and decision making will do! it also helps if you witness something triggering and are trying to stave off an episode

Today’s military strikes on Iran β€” carried out by the United States and Israel β€” mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.

Anyone know how to remove your papers without making an account? I'm not on there, but in the publicly available part of their search it looks like my papers all are.

The intense #SaharanDust plume over the North Atlantic is predicted to reach western Europe in the coming days in the #CopernicusAtmosphere forecast. These episodes are not uncommon at this time of the year, particularly impacting air quality and visibility in Canary Islands and Madeira.

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

On 2 February 2026, a major landslide occurred on a cut slope on the Ionian motorway between Arta and Amfilochia in Greece. This failure appears to have occurred on a slope reinforced with rockbolts. No-one was harmed.

This is one of my favorite optical illusions, because even when you know specifically HOW IT WORKS, it's still hard to make your brain believe it.

The image below is real-world video, but you're being tricked into believing it's an elaborate miniature by the DIORAMA EFFECT.

Let's talk about it.

I caught TB in the Bay Area in the early 90’s when I was in high school. I’ve got nerve damage because of it. Not something to mess with, even with early treatment.

Over 50 latent tuberculosis cases detected at SF high school amid outbreak Health officials warned physicians to be aware of potential TB symptoms.

Damn. Tuberculosis cases are occasionally reported in the U.S., but an outbreak of 50 cases in San Francisco is extraordinary. There's no good TB vaccine -- BCG is used in some countries, but it's not very effective.
