"MAGA bodies" come in all shapes and sizes but if I had to generalize the typical male physique: it's what happens when you take steroids and then only work out chest and arms and also don't work out often enough

Narcan is cheap, easy to administer, low risk and incredibly effective. It saves countless lives.
There’s no logical reason to oppose it, other than cruelty and eugenics.
Add people who do drugs to the growing list of folks this regime is targeting.
Max Kennerly@maxkennerly.bsky.social
The only reason anyone would cut the Narcan program, a mere $56 million annually, is because they want people to die as punishment.

Bit of an odd story this one - the main analysis says women don't use AI because they lack STEM skills, confidence and value in the workplace. Yet the anecdotes suggest that women excel at communication, whether writing or interpersonal, and can spot ChatGPT's flaws www.bbc.co.uk/news/busines...

Happening now: A Texas rep is grilling the author of a bill that would ban "non-human behavior" in schools - a response to furry/cat litter myths.
Current debate: Is licking Cheetoh dust off your fingers the same as grooming yourself like a cat? Would the Attorney General would investigate that?

“Just say yes”.
The fascist who’s been convicted of sexual assault is called out for misinformation, and the only rebuttal he has is to demand a career journalist “say yes”.

This exchange is so very telling. Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this: "I never heard of you. I picked you. You’re not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"

When you’re chronically ill, your baseline means everything.
Maintaining whatever function, autonomy & independence you have left is crucial. It’s also incredibly hard to do.
The smallest of setbacks can wipe out months or years of progress.
My tips & tricks for maintaining a baseline:

Maintaining a Baseline Means Everything When You're Chronically Ill
So why is it so hard to do? And how can we make it a bit easier?

"He told the man who’d asked him to move, 'If I move out of the way and you do what you’re intending to do, who’s going to look after your family?'" Ooof. Gift link on this tough story.

Dudley Green stood in front of the driver in the Vancouver attack, and protected him from an angry, distraught crowd. “He needs to die,” one of the men said. “I don’t disagree,” Mr. Green told him. “But now is not the time.” www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/7232de0...

We must normalize masks as a public health tool before it’s too late.
If you care about social justice, disability rights, fighting fascism or your health… you should be wearing a mask. Ideally an N95 or better.
The more of us wearing them, the harder they will be to ban.

Therapists have to follow certain codes of conduct and ethical standards.
AI does not. You can’t sue or reprimand AI.
It’s wildly dangerous to let AI replace trained mental health professionals.
Dr. Amy, PsyD@dramypsyd.rmh-therapy.com
“You don’t like AI therapists because they’re a threat to your income” No, I don’t like AI therapists because they are harmful!
