Switching to the Dexcom g7 and Omnipod has so far been miserable. Changing 2 sensors and 3pods in one day. G6 I never had these issues.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:
-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.
-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

Black music protesting white political terror in registers they never hear; reminiscent of ancestral spirituals embedded with instructions for runaways
All this in New Orleans... What a moment

Remember the Hippocratic Oath, doctor. Do no harm. No is a complete answer.
This should not be a difficult decision for Cassidy. He must be reminded of the Square One Fallacy Kennedy used when answering him.
Bill Cassidy’s decision on RFK Jr. could jeopardize his Senate career
As a doctor, Cassidy is troubled by RFK Jr. As a politician, he has reason to support him anyway.

Apple has opted iOS and MacOS users into an AI photo scanning feature which tries to extract landmarks from your photos called Enhanced Visual Search by default with little notice.

The head of Pasadena Humane says that they're taking names of people who are willing to foster animals that are coming into the shelter that are displaced from the Eaton Fire.
She says that the main thing they need is money.

I guarantee that my in-laws will hand me juice at Christmas brunch and I will have to explain for the billionth time I only drink juice when my blood sugar is low.

This is the 3rd year now that my MIL cooks the exact same meal for Christmas day that my family cooks for Christmas eve down to the dessert. I feel like I shouldn’t have to change our tradition. Then she always comments how we are eating the same meal again.

I put on a new Dexcom g6 sensor. Started the 2hr. warm up and within 8 minutes I got a low reading. I’m not low.

I don’t understand why us lefty folks are always expected to listen, debate, appease, compromise, and make space for right wingers, when the same isn’t expected of them. I mean, I DO understand why that happens, I just can’t stand it.
That’s the stuff of abusive relationships.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: if the House Ethics report exonerated Matt Gaetz, they would have released that shit immediately.
ALSO, why are we normalizing the sleaziest people for the highest positions in the country?
You can't pick someone who's not a fucking sex offender???

It bears repeating: Anyone who voted for a convicted sexual predator and is sitting silent as FOUR people accused of sexual violence or COVERING UP sexual violence have been nominated to cabinet positions BY THAT SEXUAL PREDATOR, in has ZERO interest in protecting women.

Close. The price gouging occurred by the three insulin manufacturers. 2-3 price increases per year for 20 years, in lockstep, of 25-year old insulin formulations.
Insurance companies suck, but they do not control the PRICE of insulin. The insulin makers do.
