We have a patient at my clinic who does 3D printing for fun, and makes all kinds of random stuff for us as gifts.

So yesterday he was telling me how he found a new filament that's soft and flexible and skin-safe...you see where this is going.

What's your favorite wall calendar art? I still need one for my kitchen and I haven't seen anything that inspires me yet this year.

Brings all new meaning to ACAB.
In 1999, a woman named Jessica Gonzales sought and obtained an order of protection against her physically abusive husband ("AH"), who had repeatedly threatened to kill her and their three children. The order included language specifically limiting when and where AH was allowed to see the children.

Northern lights from my front porch last night, first time I've been able to see them. I feel like these shots are delightfully creepy somehow.

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

My almost-80-year-old mother is freaking out because they just had a town hall in their retirement community where they were informed they're not allowed to have candles 🤣

No one. No one is on our side. Not Rs, not Ds.

The politics game in Washington is so fucking disconnected from reality they don’t even know what their job is supposed to be.
Shaheen: "I think we can get a bipartisan bill out of the Senate that will address this [healthcare] issue. And if not, we know that the voters are going to know who's on their side and who's going to hold them accountable."

This is something I've always believed. I've never been a purist when it comes to adaptations, because what's the point of adapting something if it's exactly like what came before?

Be true to the themes, the vibe, to something - but show me something new.
Book accuracy matters a lot less to me than “is the current adaptation doing what it is trying to do well”

You know that feeling when you finally start reading a book that you've been looking forward to for a long time and from the very start it's everything you'd been hoping for and you just feel all tingly excited?

If you’re wondering what a “least weasel” is, they absolutely live up to the name. This is the least amount of animal you can have that can still meet the bar for “is weasel”

It's phenomenal and I will hear no slander
I love Bram Stoker's Dracula. I've seen people accuse it of being "style over substance," but the whole film is about love cascading over the ages like a river of blood. Why not be emotionally charged to the brim? Why not be luscious in form? Its the treatment this particular film deserves.
