Does classification of fentanyl as a WMD affect the ability to use it in hospitals?

This is insane. Patients are people who by definition are in need of medical help. The healthcare system should be "in the business" of aiding patients. Not selling them medical products.
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

This is why hating and mocking AI relentlessly and publicly is vital work.

I said it before, will say it again -- generative AI fetishizes "ideas" while sneering at effort, execution, and education. That, despite Gen-AI being built on and out of other people's effort, execution and education.
A.I. and the Fetishization Of Ideas
In writing and in dispensing my (very dubious, probably shady) writing advice, I am often keen to note that ideas are bullshit. Most writers treat them like precious gems when really, ideas are lik…

This is not an improvement in any way over non-AI generated Christmas ads.

My first impression? This sounds depressed. The AI voices are so hollow, it sounds like every character is suppressing their emotions. There's zero chance I'd be interested in watching this. The pacing and emotions are so off. What a waste.
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Goodreads Choice awards... some 'drama', but honestly, readers did it to ourselves by shelving books - both for total number shelved and by what they're calling those shelves (e.g., romantasy). I do think the "most popular" and "favorite" language needs some fine-tuning.

So. All's Fair. What... the heck? Women representing other women in divorces sounds fine as a premise. But the way women *are* in this show? Not fine. Not fine, friends.

Saw Predator last night, really enjoyed it. Would be okay with an alien/aliens adjacent movie not having a yellow lifter reference in it.

Measuring everyone's sick status by how much toast they eat for breakfast and how many tissues they go through..both pieces consumed and only three tissues? Off to school we go!

First Christmas movie of 2025 in the bag. A Royal Montana Christmas, from Hallmark. So many unanswered questions. Lots of Christmas decor, lots of ranch-themed activities. This one averaged 3 stars on the enjoyment & Christmas movie tropes scales.

The LAPD's behaviour towards fans after the Dodgers won the World Series makes me even sadder that the Jays lost.

So proud of everything the Jays accomplished this season. They were a fun team to watch play and they went farther than most people thought they could. Obviously, we wanted it all, but there's always next year. 💙

So worried for Springer. I want him in the lineup, but also don't want him to do even more damage to himself. :-/

Finally finished the fabric cutting/pinning/handsewing portion of my son's costume. Did I do an *amazing* job? No. But given how minimal my sewing experience has been previously, I'm pretty gosh darned proud of myself.

How does Scientology continue to exist? We've heard about the hard labor that *children* are punished with, about the interrogations, isolation, and punishments. Why hasn't it been dismantled due to the abuse?
