Just watched “the Stepford wives“ the first time I’ve seen it even though I knew the plot. What happened to the kids? Did they get lobotomized or robotized or were they just intimidated by the new android Mom?

Watching “Little Girl Who Lived Down The Lane” (somehow for the first time ) Struck by how dark it is and shocked by the nudity, even as brief as it was (she was 13). Ms Foster is force!

I went ahead and opened up a cottage kitchen!

If you are in the Austin area and have wanted to taste the yummies, now you can!

Right now, I'm just scheduling around the Elgin area, but drop me a dm or a comment if you're anywhere in the Austin area.

🧵Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:

A small human (3?) in a sparkly blue dress with sparkly red shoes is cycling a tiny tricycle as FAST as she can go!
A big placid dog (Staffy cross snuggle?) is trotting at her side. Two friends off on an adventure.

This is some damning stuff on Ken Paxton, especially in the wake of the Cornell situation.

These high school athletes raped their teammates and weren't punished at all.

Anybody else captivated by the Dungeon Crawler Carl series? New genre of Lit RPG is a lot of fun. I'm on book 3, listening via Audiobook which adds a lot I think. Where are my #IDSky Crawlers?!

New bro code:
"Protect women. Respect women. Believe women."

The code is accountability, human decency, human kindness, respect. It has to be.

The Mayor of Ithaca, NY (in which Cornell is located) is taking decisive action against the college.

What Cornell's administration has done is unforgiveable. Every single person involved in that decision should be held to account.

An insurance company is apparently trying to provide palliative care to my patients without any care coordination and well outside of the scope of the practioners. Has anyone heard about this? Is there a healthcare journalist interested in looking into this more with me? #pedpc #hapc
