If it’s any consolation I am seeing bridged account for Mastodon over there. I think people will get more exposure to the wider Fedverse while they’re there.

Hospitals abuse the fuck out of H1B visas.

"The reasoning for bringing in AI tools to monitor patients is always that it will make life easier for us, but in my experience, technology in healthcare rarely makes things better. It usually just speeds up the factory floor, squeezing more out of us, so they can ultimately hire fewer of us. " - yup and there’s not much we can do about it without harming a lot of people.

Same boat my friend. Never ever had a xitter account but I made a Bluesky account last week to check things out. My husband deleted his Twitter account quite a while back and has been sorely missing seeing people he followed. I tried getting him here but he really doesn’t understand the whole set up. So I’m trying to convince him to join Bluesky. I have no idea what I’m doing over there but the folks there are much like we were here in the beginning in that everyone is helping each other learn. I do think that the platform will serve as a good bridge to get people learning about Federated platforms. We all have to start somewhere.

I feel like Fantasy Life did this the best though. I absolutely loved this game and wish it would get a port to PC.

The election coverage I saw on AP this week confirms that they are compromised as well. They are dead to me.

I just want to say that baby’s turkey costume is using dish gloves for the “feet” and it’s so derpy that I love it.

Just adding this article here from the ACOG about how tenuous the definition of viability is and how few babies actually make it when delivered in the 20-25 week mark. We love to focus on those miracle babies who do make it this early but it is definitely not the norm.

I will never stop wanting a remake of Eternal Darkness. All the other horror games got decent remakes/updates but where’s the love for Eternal Darkness?

This is fucking barbaric. The hospital let her sit for 40 hours with a fetus hanging out of her uterus. Just take a moment to imagine what that alone must have felt like aside from the emotional horror of losing a pregnancy. We wouldn’t even imagine treating pets or livestock this way but it’s clear that these repugnant forced-birthers don’t consider women to be people. One little pill to speed up the labor that her body already decided was needed was all that was required to keep this woman alive. What’s the point of even having healthcare when we can’t rely on it.

Oh that poor baby. Growing back new feathers sucks, especially all at once. I did find this article on how to safely use Lantern Fly tape Incase any one is interested.

Is this one new fad I don’t know about because I have a neighbor who’s done this exact same thing?

This is straight up medical negligence. You seriously mean to tell me at no point did any of these doctors just order up simple lab work to confirm that there was nothing wrong while placating the mother? Every hospital I’ve ever worked in has an unwritten policy that if you come into the ER you’re getting basic blood work and a urinalysis if only to prevent malpractice suits. I truly believe that COVID irreparably broke the already disfunctional for-profit healthcare system here in the US and with every story like this I lose hope that it will ever be fixed.

I’ve been buying the crushed Chaos boxes for MTG cards at my local Walmart this year. These things have probably been sitting in storage forever instead of being sent back but I grab them when I see them. They’ve been real good to me. I pulled a Rhystic Study, Ragavan, Ao the sky dawn, and a Junji the Midnight Sky out of them this summer.

Yea getting up and about after surgery sucks but it’s the best way to prevent blood clots. Very glad to hear you made it to the hospital in time!

I know that this one is practicing killing but the derpiness is too strong. 🥰

Omg when I bought my new Civic the first thing I asked the dealer was how to turn off braking assistance. He immediately doubled down and tried to make me feel like a “dumb woman” and then when I told him only an idiot would rely on that shit in heavy rain or snow he changed his tune. It still pisses me off that it turns itself back on every time you start the car.

Planet Crafter Humble DLC and TCG Card Shop Simulator. The Humble DLC is still a bit buggy but it’s nice having a new planet to explore. I’ve paused playing Card Shop Simulator until the developers smooth out the XP grind a bit more.

This is my go to pattern for baby blankets. It’s a super simple pattern that’s really quick to doand it’s really easy to modify. I did one for a friend where I made it look like a sunset over the mountains just by adjusting the row heights for each color swatch. Chevron pattern

I don’t blame him for not wanting to do entire soundtracks anymore and I’m glad he’s going to keep making music.
