I thought I wanted to be President, but it turns out I just really like an Aaron Sorkin walk-n-talk. Script Sup (871), ADHD, Auntie, possibly three raccoons in a trench coat.

It took us 1 hour 20 minutes to film the master wide of a 12 page scene ONCE. We had so many start stops and resets. Torturous.

This is very funny. Reminder: he can do THIS because he is a very specific kind of White Man. But his comms team is (mostly? entirely?) women of color.

Scientific American has updated the figure, now grouped into swimmers, fliers, walkers/runners, and vehicles. A person on a bicycle remains the most efficient way to travel, compared to all forms of biological locomotion and mechanical transport.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Stop worrying about what happens if we let kids transition. Worry about what happens if we don’t. What’s so scary about a transgender child?

My friend with Tourettes shared β€œEven if you can’t help the tic, and its a disability, you still have to take responsibility for the action. It was hurtful, and that should have been acknowledged better.β€œ

Also, apparently there was a 2-hour broadcast delay and they chose not to bleep it.

I am suddenly very annoyed my old dance teacher never suggested I compete at All Irelands. I would have recalled in my soft shoe round for sure. Likely wouldve been top 10. That would have felt amazing.

Instead, she never asked me what my goals were. Never helped me set my sights on anything.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M, to detain 4k people of whom only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Plus two citizens murdered.

COVID-19 vaccination status during pregnancy and preeclampsia risk: the pandemic-era cohort of the INTERCOVID consortium COVID-19 vaccination with a booster reduces the odds of PE by 30% approaching 60% reduction among women with pre-existing morbidities.

Remember when RFK Jr. unilaterally decided that COVID19 vaccines should no longer be recommended during pregnancy?

Well, COVID19 increases the risk of preeclampsia.

And it turns out that getting boosted, either before or during pregnancy, significantly reduces the risk of preeclampsia.
