I want to make sure everyone in the city is aware that SUNY Downstate operates a large and extremely skilled LGBTQ and gender affirming care clinic, and we have repeatedly reiterated our intention to go to jail before we stop.
BREAKING: The U.S. Department of Justice announced on Friday that it reached an “agreement” with Mount Sinai Health System in which it will “cease providing” gender-affirming medical care to minors and dedicate $2 million to providing care to those “suffering harmful consequences” of such care.

Exploding diarrhea is the term my veterinarian wife has always used, so I assume it's actually the medical term.
Ok serious question:
Why “explosive” diarrhea?
Why not “severe” or “acute” or “persistent”? Why are we all using one of the grossest words possible for this?

And finally: it’s not complicated. Paint peel. Water green.
Complex, partisan issues where not only is everyone worried about factual accuracy and all the “to be sure”s and “are we being fair”s? Those constipate The Discourse.
This? Easy and nonpartisan.

@wordloaf Will Breaducation help those of us in the swamp?
It reminds me of one of something I keep meaning to mention, which is that none of my many sourdough books were written with a swamp land climate like Houston in mind.

Some notes now that I’ve seen the transcript of the hearing, thanks to @lizdye.bsky.social .
First: the government dismissed the felony count in an effort to convince the judge not to make them produce full transcripts, knowing they showed serious misconduct.

They can't just leave everything to "talk to your doctor". They are "America's doctor" and need to take some damn stands to protect America's health. /fin

A quite readable article about the difference between Danish and US health care
Denmark’s vaccine schedule is the most minimalist in the developed world. So why is HHS trying to adopt it?

Why Denmark's vaccine schedule works for Denmark — but not for the United States
With its vaccine schedule, “Denmark has made a values choice to accept preventable hospitalizations and illnesses that other countries have chosen to prevent.”

Aside from the actual facts, I just feel like when announcing that you have the biggest armada, history might not be on your side. What's the one armada that anyone knows about?
I’d also like to point out that you cannot surround Venezuela with an armada.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."
