AFAICT, seems like #CVS, #Walgreens, #Walmart & #Target have all optimized their processes to insure maximum cross-patient exposure.

This is a pretty cynical take, but why set up a system that ensures sick people linger & mingle? More cross contamination leads to the more prescription sales, right?

So much room for improvement, just to get back to where they were.

Hell, even my chore-avoiding teens are quicker than where all the major US pharmacies are these days.

What’s the deal with how slow US pharmacies are these days? They used to be soooo much faster!

My doctor can β€œelectronically submit” a prescription to my pharmacy of choice. An hour later, they receive the prescription but then still take 30-120 minutes to pull the boxed item off their shelf.

The #Timberwolves have…

* Won 5 in a row
* Went 8-1 (.889) in last 9 games
* Went 13-4 (.765) in last 17 games
* Lost 5 in a row
* Went 15-9 (.625) in last 24 games

Not too shabby. Keep stacking β€˜em.

And lastly…

Go #Wolves!

Trump fires Kristi Noem as Homeland Security secretary Trump fired Kristi Noem as secretary of the Department of Homeland Security after lawmakers grilled her over an ad campaign that featured her.

ICE Barbie fired from her high profile cosplay gig.

As the new β€œspecial envoy for The Shield of the Americas” her new gig sounds a lot like a sales model/escort for car and gun shows.

β€˜Too expensive.’ Americans fret over gas prices as Iran war widens Crude oil prices began rising after Trump ordered the Iran attack. At gas pumps in several states, some drivers were worried about rising costs.

Inflation, here it comes!

Was $0.53 more a gallon this week at the pump. That β€œbump” is going to have large, ripple effects.

Sad times we live in when asking questions and reporting answers are now considered meddling.

Worse yet, not just law but executive actions, or interpretation of same.

The non-Rudy defensive minutes are about to improve substantially.

As an NBA fan, one of the hardest things to do is keep calm, remembering the season is a marathon. The goal is improvement, health and winning enough but not at-all-costs.

Too many fans & sportscasters lose that perspective, bringing misapplied all-in, do-or-die NFL energy.

Just finished reading Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. His best work yet, and that’s saying something give his brilliant, previous efforts.

Go Lawnmower go!

As a #Timberwolves fan, was bummed the former Wolf’s career with the #Wolves didn’t work out.

He’s got all the tools, but just couldn’t sustainably put them together all at once.

Still, seemingly good dude and a great interview.

I can think of $2.46B reasons why BSA rebranded as SA, added DEI and allowed girls.

Despite this, Hegseth wants to go back to the good β€˜ol days, when the BSA was openly gay-bashing while its leadership from and raped 82000 boys.

Start a war with #Iran to distract from the #Epstein Files. Then host a couple of quick fundraisers *before* those soon-to-be rising gas prices affect the donation pocketbooks.

Let’s call this what it is: malicious distraction theatre so we look away from the Epstein Files (TEF)…

TEF? DEI
TEF? Harvard
TEF? DOW
TEF? Vaccines
TEF? Kennedy Center
TEF? Venezuela
TEF? Ballroom
TEF? Bad Bunny
TEF? Minneapolis
TEF? Clinton’s
TEF? Anthropic
TEF? Boy Scouts

And now

TEF? Iran war

Excited for Kyle’s return. He’ll get those Finchy β€œbreak glass” minutes instead of Mike. Will make a big difference.

#Anthropic keeps crushing it. So many reasons to choose #Claude.

- No autonomous killing machines
- Don’t spy on American citizens

Other, existing great reasons are:

- No ads ( #OpenAI)
- Not a CSAM/porn social platform ( #Groc & #Meta)
- Not MechaHitler (Groc)
- Best-in-class code assistant

Love the #Timberwolves line-up on the floor right now. Might very well be next year’s starting five.

Ayo
Ant
Jaden
Naz
Rudy

Go #Wolves!

Am excited for an eventual #Timberwolves small-ball + energy line-up of:

PG - Ayo
SG - Donte
SF - Jaden
PF - Naz
C - Kyle

Finch, make it happen! And…

Go #Wolves !!!

Plus rebounder. Plus defender (both 1v1 and team). Play-making. Sounds like a small-ball 5 to me. πŸ˜‰. And we need it.

Hallelujah! SLO-MO appreciation here! Go #Wolves !!!

* 8th man, behind Naz and Ayo
* 3rd best defensive player
* Serviceable backup PG in half-court games
* Change-up to Ayo, Bones & TJ speedsters
* Has FU energy that Rudy, Ant & Jaden need to hear
* Less minutes for Mike
* Weirdly a back-up 5

Hard to fully buy into β€˜the future is now with AI’ hype from #Musk when that chickenshit is afraid to use Groc to actively flag CSAM on his #Twitter (X) platform because it’s not ready yet.

Which is it? Hypocrite!

Of course, that would mean #MechaHitler would have to flag its own posts and media.πŸ˜‰
