Listening to a recent podcast episode of @acidhorizon.bsky.social where Mars McDougall called ketamine "libertarian psychoanalysis" and I don't think anything more perfect could be said today.

It's literally impossible to run the National Weather Service without talking to foreign partners.
For example, the National Hurricane Center in Miami shares data with other nations in the Caribbean constantly to forecast storms. Everyone benefits.
Weather doesn't stop at the borders.

Speaking of who is falling behind in the story arms race.

I wish I could full explain just how much weight many disabled people bear when we watch systems supposed to support us dismantled or re-purposed. When talk of rights is bandied around as immutable law.

As I scoop cat litter from five boxes at 11pm after four days of having not done so due to insufficient time and energy of looking after a newborn, I wearily dab my nose of blood from the dry air and dry litter dust and reflect on the 6th house as the derived 2nd from the 5th house of children.

Hooked on this fall cocktail of scotch, apple cider, campari, and lemon. Calls for grapefruit peel as garnish but it creates a perfect illusion of grapefruit flavor even without it. www.thrillist.com/recipe/scotc...
