It's a tactic known as surveillance pricing.

Scores of journalists with access to the Pentagon handed in their press passes on Wednesday rather than sign on to new rules that sharply restrict access and raise the prospect of punishment for simply requesting information on matters of public interest. Here is what the new rules say.

📲Imágenes y textos online representan a las mujeres como menos experimentadas que los hombres en todas las profesiones

Chicas de mi TL. Leed a Carme Valls, si no fuera por ella y por otros médicos que hacen seguimiento de enfermedades como Endometriosis, y nos apoyan día a día, estaríamos muy solas. De lo que dice @cronopia.bsky.social, aún recuerdo el día que llamé a una ambulancia y me dieron una buscapina.
Ya es casualidad que la misma semana que empiezo Mujeres invisibles para la medicina, de @capitanswing.bsky.social (gran libro, mejores personas), una familiara muy cercana a la que el médico despachó hace 6 meses con Astenolit, resulta que está peor y que tiene que ir pitando al cardiólogo.

Writers, keep writing. Do not buy into the hype train telling you your job will be replaced in a few years. Those using AI are literally atrophying their brains ability to be creative. The future will need your words, your creativity, to function well.
