Here in Vegas, you can get busted by the water police for washing your car in your driveway. It's a huge waste of water. We're aware out here that the car wash places recapture and reuse their water. Maybe it's time for the rest of the country to learn to think about water they way we have to.

Seymour is 4.5 months old. So far, the 🎄has stayed upright & only a few shatterproof ornaments have taken a beating.

She has a really interesting history. She spoke 5 languages. She was educated in San Francisco because her grandfather, Truckee, saw the need to make allies of white people. She was the first indigenous woman to write an autobiography.

Try Calibre. I use it to side load PDFs on my Kobo. It's easier than trying to get a library book onto a Kindle

I found Karen Kelsey's resources really helpful when I left & got back into higher Ed. I'm fortunate that I can work clinically, but that's not the case for everyone.

My national association had an excellent summary here:https://www.asha.org/news/2025/proposed-definition-of-professional-degree-programs-would-exclude-audiology-and-speech-language-pathology/

I'm a speech-language pathologist & I also very much consider myself a professional. The change has to do with student loans & the max amount students will be able to take out starting in 2026. Considering our degrees not 'professional' means students won't be able to take out as much in loans

They're not stripping us of our degrees or our licenses. They are making this change so we're not eligible to take out as much in student loans.

That change is going to affect people of color and/or people from lower income environments.

I can't believe she's only 36. She looks rode hard and put up wet to me. I will say at least she hasn't gone full MAGA face.

For further clarification, the Ph.D. is the original doctorate. Scientists were earning their Ph.D. degrees in the hard sciences when medical 'doctors' were bleeding & leeching people to align their 'humours.'
