The prep isn't nearly as bad as it used to be, the surgery is the best nap you'll ever have, and the first meal after is a religious experience.
Just got a colonoscopy this week! Unlike poor Saavik here, prep was basically painless for me. Drink the goop, poop a lot, done. Really the whole thing was smooth & easy & not worth the dread lots of folks bring to it.
If you're nearing or above 50, do it!

Hello Bluesky user—are you, yes you, approaching 50?
Well, I have some bad news and some good news: you are at increased risk of dying a horrible painful death from colon cancer—BUT—there is something you can do to prevent it!
Yes, you should schedule your colonoscopy today!

Ohrdruf was the first concentration camp liberated by U.S. troops. It was the first time the U.S. Army became fully aware of the horrors of the Holocaust. The three highest ranking US officers in Europe - Eisenhower, Bradley, and Patton - all visited it to personally witness the horrors.
Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

the number of academics who were in touch with Epstein really puts the (elite) backlash to Title IX's enforcement against sexual violence into perspective.
DiChristina also invited Epstein to attend an editorial meeting for the Scientific American, where she worked as editor-in-chief.
Correspondence from 2010 also showed DiChristina on a guest list for a meeting on “the islands,” though it was not immediately clear what Epstein meant by “islands.”

Wow, this is a tremendous loss for getting (somewhat objective) factual information about other countries.
I’ve been using the CIA World Factbook online since I was a little kid. What a stupid, pointless desecration.
They closed the CIA World Factbook and deleted it entirely.

”Provocative” is like “intellectual.” If other people use it to describe you, maybe you are. If you use it to describe yourself, you’re more likely just an asshole.

My point here is that knee-jerk doomerism rests on not doing the actual analysis that needs to be done.
Might there be vulnerable-R seats with heavy Hispanic representation where targeted polling station patrols are likely to suppress D more than R? Maybe! But can't just assert the doom.

wait...they're using contract attorneys for this?
Some people have questioned whether this is real. First, Blume is a legit reporter who's covering the courts in earnest. Second, there's a MN-barred attorney named Julie Le whose address is literally the Whipple Building. Another attorney confirmed to me she's a private attorney contracting with DOJ
