I wrote this piece because I only learned about pelvic floors a few years ago, despite having had one all my life. And then it turned out to be where I store all my issues. And then that turned out to be true for a lot of people www.wired.com/story/the-pe...
The Pelvic Floor Is a Problem
Everyone’s suddenly obsessed with the pelvic floor—physical therapists, MAHA influencers, me. Could this deeply misunderstood body part really be the seat of so much modern dysfunction?

Yesterday 15% of charlotte students were absent now that ICE has invaded. The normal absentee rate is half that. So many children are missing out on their childhood’s because of racism

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

There are a bunch of people up at the top who have mistaken their insulation from the cruelties of life as a form of wisdom
seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

Still upset about no power of the purse language. You truly do hate to see it. The Trump admin undertook the most expansive set of illegal budgetary actions of any president in history, and broadcast as loudly as possible they’d keep doing it, and nothing. Budgetary lawlessness.

Oh you're trying to say the cost of living is skyrocketing?

Donald Trump can't hear you over the sound of bulldozers demolishing a wing of the White House to build a new grand ballroom.

Holy shit.

Game 7 between the Jays and the Mariners just ran an pro-free trade ad, targeted to American workers, decrying tariffs.

The twist being that, if you don't catch it beforehand, Ronald Reagan is revealed as the speaker in the closing seconds.

What PAC is this? The Province of Ontario.
Ronald Reagan narrates a new anti-tariff ad from Canada
The new commercial is part of a $75 million ad campaign by Ontario aimed at Republican voters.

Just realizing did Trump himself create that AI video? Because if he did, did he intend for the plane to shit all over the place? Imagine the prompt he would have put in to create that video. 😭😂

People with ME/CFS are the antithesis of quitters. To keep showing up and choosing life and trying to find ways to be more alive in the face of immense physical and societal challenges is courageous, disciplined, and heroic.
