Al Expectation We are reviewing claim #& submitted on 09/28/2025. Our records indicate the claim was filed under diagnosis code F32.9 (Depressive disorder, unspecified), while the corresponding prescription and referral history list treatment for lumbar disc herniation (back pain). Re: Incorrect Diagnosis in Record Hi Thank you for reaching out. We have reviewed your visit documentation and can confirm that the notes in question were generated using our Al scribe system. It appears the Al tool assigned diagnosis code F32.9 (Depressive disorder, unspecified), while your visit notes and treatment plan reference lumbar disc herniation (back pain). Per compliance policy, certain Al-generated fields cannot be manually updated by clinic staff and require vendor correction. We have escalated this to our vendor support team and opened ticket # . We'll notify you once we receive confirmation or correction from the vendor.

The best thing about Frankenstein discourse is that it's really cemented how much I don't care about other people's opinions on art. "Frankenstein is too much of a villain." "Inland Empire doesn't make sense." "Cat People isn't scary enough." If I love a movie I just don't care if you don't like it.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.

Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

every time one of these wastrel losers opens their mouth to whine and wheedle that men simply naturally "need" to be the boss of women and fathers simply "need" to be the masters of the home it only further convinces me that capital-F Fathers and Fatherhood must be totally abolished as a concept.
In “Of Boys and Men,” Reeves, a fellow at the Brookings Institution, draws on the work of the late British sociologist Geoff Dench, who posited that the “fundamental weakness of feminist analysis” is its failure “to see that men may need the status of the main provider role to give them a sufficient reason to become fully involved, and stay involved, in the longer-term draggy business of family life.” And Reeves co-signs the supply-side economist George Gilder’s hypothesis that, once wives become “both provider and procreator,” their husbands become “exiles” in their own homes. Reeves mostly rejects Gilder and Dench’s line of revanchist patriarchy, but he credits them for correctly diagnosing “the dangers of anomie and detachment among men stripped of their traditional role.” In an age when two out of every five households have a female primary breadwinner, no one seems to know “what fathers are for,”

I feel like "WHat you just have made here is a list of shit that is good," has potential as a new dril idiom.

rather taken with these little wooden cross stitch frames I got in a craft supply swap. I don't count so it's a little wonky but I like the effect.
a wooden star shape with a grid of punctures for cross stitching. it holds a pattern of green leaves and pink blossoms.
