Well, this should be interesting.

About me - 50s something with a full time job. Sarcastic AF. Takes no prisoners. Not very good at PC. Grew up in England and implanted into DC area. Can not and do not want to get rid of my accent as it seems to keep me out of trouble.

Come say hi!!

No one should die from gun violence.
And...
Violent protest is statistically less effective than peaceful protest.
And...
No one should be denied Healthcare because of greed and corporate profit.

Multiple things can be true. Stay safe out there friends.

AI is great for some things - but it is still sexist and racist. It also takes AI 9 minutes to recommend ER visit for chest pain. Medicine should not see AI as a fail safe replacement for healthcare just yet. www.euronews.com/health/2024/...
AI models think all nurses are women and senior doctors are men
While women were overrepresented as doctors in thousands of AI-generated stories, they were still subject to gender stereotypes, the analysis found.

CEOs scared of being gunned down get a hotline to call. School kids scared of being gunned get to call their moms and tell them they love them.

Presented a modern day Grinch type story at work and asked the team not to assume that people love the season. Try looking out for the "Grinch" as they be going through things right now.The amount of people who approached me after to say they were having a hard time was just sad. Take care out there

Flahoolick [fla-HOO-lik]

Used in a sentence:
“Oh sure he’s flahoolick, but the problem is that he never gives anyone anything they actually want.”

Pronounced in its original way in Ireland fla-hool-ock, flaithiúilach.

Want to know why health care is so expensive? The reason the cost is so expensive is becuase the amount of NON clinical people telling clinical people how to do their job and also finding ways to deny care. You're welcome

Virtually every question today at the WH Press briefing was about the Hunter pardon, as if that is the thing the American people care about most right now. The DC press is so disconnected from the American public and serves them poorly more often than not.

The Christmas songs are out in full force and I have a few faves. This one makes me happy and sad at the same time because of the amazing JOHN LEWIS christmas advert (look it up, you won't regret it) . What's your favorite song of the season and why? #christmassong #christmasmusic #johnlewis

1/ Appreciate that I chose to move from the UK to the US but for the love of God, someone please speak to whoever chooses the "international" aisle food at the grocery stores. Champagne marmalade? Barry's Tea? Jammie Dodgers ? And the absolute blasphemy of all blasphemies- low sugar Heinz Beans.
