Meanwhile, the entire country talks endlessly about the Epstein files instead of the men next door who are actually abusing, and trafficking, kids…
My 16 year old niece is dating a 20 something year old and trying to bring him to my house for Thanksgiving

And I can't go too hard because you can't tell nobody how to raise they kids
BUT NO!

Since they started charging for tests, ppl are not only NOT MASKING but they're also not testing.
But that doesn't make it go away 😭

I keep seeing posts about kids getting “weird colds” but it seems like the parents aren’t testing for COVID. The denial is maddening
Patient came in with sore throat. While waiting for rapid Strep test result we glanced back at the Covid-19 RAT result: positive. Reminder that masking in health care makes sense, if you don’t want everyone in your waiting room to go home sick, your staff to get sick, and physicians to get sick.

Train Songs: a compact, lyrical memoir about a kid, me, imagining escape from an unsafe home. It’s about trains & vastness. The horizon is a much greater distance away on the Canadian prairie than it is anywhere else. I wanted to get to the other side of it. open.substack.com/pub/geoffcor...
Train Songs
As a child on the Canadian prairie, I dreamed of escape by train - seeking safety and a way back to a past before loss.

I think the shortest version of why LLMs are an anti education technology is that education is fundamentally about making shared context to understand ourselves, each other, and the world
And by design LLMs destroy shared context

The continuous federal attacks against nursing and teaching are driven by misogyny. Fascists are further marginalizing these professions because they’re historically feminized.
