annoyed about the shitty "patient education" I received when I was initially diagnosed with Fatty Liver Disease

so rather than seething, I'm going to share some of the info I've gotten from reading scientific articles

Y’alllllllll.

I have a signed copy of my RENT Broadway Tour playbill. Anthony Rapp didn’t hit up the stage door that night and my completionist self was sad.

This was FIFTEEN YEARS AGO.

So I decided to be cheeky and pay $65 for him to sign it.

#StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy no-spoilers review:

UGLY. CRYING. I mean grab-the-tissues, ruined-my-makeup sobbing.

Sometimes I don’t realize how very special and important these characters are to me, until I do. (I am referring to [HUGE FUCKING SPOILER] here)

Y’all. I am working on graphics for the Star Trek Cruise door deco contest and you are NOT prepared

I am very proud of myself 😂

I've occasionally been too generous or some people thought I was a pushover, but I've never regretted being kind, which is different from being nice.

Isaac Chotiner: the man, the myth, the legend has again appeared to methodically dissect an idiot that thought it would be a great idea to take an interview with Isaac Chotiner

I keep saying I have a thread in me about Starfleet Academy and neurodiversity but I didn’t pick up on this most excellent point.

Anyways I guess it’s time to write that thread!
I don't think they're *bad* at communicating, they're just a high context communication culture and Jay-Den may be a bit Klingon-autistic.

#startrek #starfleetacademy non-spoiler review time!

The next Starfleet Academy is named Species Acclimation Mil and I am SO excited

Wait, we are talking about THIS episode, which was Vox In Excelso. Which I correctly translated and now I am apparently fluent in Latin. (I am not fluent in Latin)

I remember sitting around in college watching my friends fuck around on 2chan, the Japanese message board 4chan is based on. It was like, a message board about anime and porn and anime porn. It was not taking down nations.
If I had a Time Machine, Past Me would never have believed Current Me
The most important thing in today's Epstein files may involve 4chan. In 2011, Epstein met with 4chan creator Christopher "moot" Poole; that same day, Poole launched the /pol/ board that 3 years later would be the heart of Gamergate. And Gamergate was the start of the movements that led to Jan 6. 1/
he also appears to have met moot the same day /pol/ was (re)launched (not my image)

This is a really bad day to earn something called a CP but HEY I DID IT

It’s that time again when the Chicago mom in me is itching to post “how to survive this weather” posts

What weather? All of it. We get all the weather here.

I'll add to this:
-REMEMBER TO DRIP YOUR FAUCETS SO YOUR PIPES DON'T FREEZE & BURST! Keep the cupboards under them open too so heat can circulate & keep them warm!

-If you don't have curtains (like on a sliding glass door), hang a blanket over it with some thumbtacks. It'll help keep the cold out.
Things I learned in the '21 TX freeze:

- looser clothing keeps you warmer (sweatpants > yoga pants)
- put a sheet OVER your comforter on your bed
- drape a sheet around drafty doors, roll a towel on thresholds
- keep curtains and blinds closed
- use one or two rooms, close up rest of your home
Hi, for those of you unfamiliar with this sort of weather

-if the power goes out, trying to heat your home with the clay pot + candle method is not a great idea, try personal warmth (ie blankets) and blocking and sealing drafty areas instead if you can

incredible work by the Forward who found the one Jew in Greenland so they could work the Jewish angle on the Greenland story

(spoiler alert: he does not want Trump to take over Greenland)
Greenland’s only Jew hears a familiar pattern in Trump’s annexation talk
Paul Cohen, Greenland’s only Jew, explains how Jewish history shapes his response to Trump’s renewed talk of annexing the island.

I would like to note that last year, in my city, ICE stole two parents from a minivan and left their baby in the backseat.

It was up to protestors to care for him, to contact authorities, and to find relatives

(I will look up a source when I am not exhausted)
