Finally, another new episode.
Between the end of a semester & overcoming the debilitating ennui of our nation careening into fascism, we understandably got behind.
The interview with
@mazjobrani.bsky.social
and Xan's piece on Bisexual Erasure in Media are excellent.

It's more than an age range, it's a lifestyle! If you're jaded, sarcastic, and quick-witted, you're Gen Z.
If you're one of those little sihts on TikTok being banal and childish and making us look bad, you're a Zoomer.
And if you're left out of demographic charts entirely, you're Gen X!
Un-Furking-Believable and yet not.
They left out #GenX. AGAIN!!!
@nytimes.com y'all suck.
Oh, and PS - Older Gen Zeds HAAATE being called Zoomers.
Especially the ones raised by a #GenXparent.

But of course! When one patient is dead from self-serve MAGA poisoning, the medics need to treat patients that still intend to survive! Basic triage in action.
There's now a critical mass of #medical professionals engaging on the site.

Many #physicians told @medpagetoday.bsky.social that Bluesky resembles X (formerly Twitter) in its early days, when they considered it a place for sharing and discussing medical #science.

Upon closer inspection, I was a bit disappointed to see that these weren't the Plague Inc. infection icons.

It'd be the most perfect fit since Republican asylum patients and ice pick lobotomies.
