Beta blockers are fine, but I'd prefer an alpha blocker.

@Alice Does that make a Beta Blocker a "Cuck Block?"

"UN chief says world is on ‘highway to climate hell’" via CNN article.

Well, that about sums it up.

The Heat Dome over the Western United States will cause temperatures to soar 20 to 25 degrees F above normal today. https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/05/climate/12-months-record-heat-un-speech/index.html

This is terrible news not on!y because the virus is evolving, but also because right when surveillance would be really helpful, there is significant resistance. https://www.ucdavis.edu/health/news/h5n1-increasingly-adapting-mammals#:~:text=The%20study%E2%80%99s%20genomic%20analysis%20showed%20the%20virus%20is,transmission%20could%20jump%20to%20other%20species%2C%20including%20people.

99.9% of jobs do not require urgency of any kind, really they don't. We've all had a boss who acts like someone will die if we don't hit some made up deadline by people who don't even do the job. No one needs their meal 1 minute faster or the paperwork before tomorrow morning. Your time off actually doesn't need to wait. Sometimes I think about how legitimately bad most businesses are at time management and hiring, and I wonder how they manage to exist at all.

Mountain Dew has a history of picking some "interesting" colors for their beverages, but why Side Of The Highway Pee Bottle?

@RickiTarr right? I saw it and thought the same thing. Plus, ya know, 72 grams of sugar.

I seem to have hurt my ankle doing an easy run on my normal route in my normal running shoes. How??

kimlockhartga,
@kimlockhartga@beige.party avatar

@purplepadma what running shoes do you wear? I'm sorry about your ankle. Have you ever hurt it before?

kimlockhartga,
@kimlockhartga@beige.party avatar

@purplepadma I just got my first pair of Brooks! My foot orthotic guy recommended them. Those are quality kicks.

kimlockhartga,
@kimlockhartga@beige.party avatar

@QueenOfCoffee @purplepadma It feels like you aren't wearing shoes, kinda like walking on air. I've never had so much room for my toes.

The first cases were restricted to troubling, but isolated, eye infections. Now, the latest H5N1 infected farm worker has respiratory symptoms.

Our wearable art tank tops arrived, just in time, because it's going to be a HOT girl summer. :awesome:

I selected the seahorse, and J chose the whimsical cows "Milly and Miley." These works of art are the creations of Lisa Baker: https://1-lisas-baker.pixels.com/

@LisaSBaker

Gorgeous multi/rainbow colored seahorse. The seahorse appears to be kicking up color with the motion of its body and fins. That is what makes it especially enigmatic.

This website provides significant information for the benefit of scientists, epidemiologists, and their lay counterparts. It is a global assessment regarding the prevalence and spread of HPAI. The data is clade-specific and detailed. I found it to be comprehensive and helpful. It's interesting to see that some countries are administering prophylactic vaccines to their livestock. Also, I knew about dairy cows, seals, foxes, coyotes, raccoons, of course birds, and even at least one dolphin, but I had not heard about HPAI H5N1 in goats. Goats are very popular (as well as chickens) among backyard small farm enthusiasts in my state.

There should be sympathy cards for more occasions:

Sorry you still have a crappy boyfriend.

Sympathies on the impending visit of your snooty in-laws.

Condolences on your ruined white couch. Perhaps, in the future, serve only white wine at book club?

Sorry, I genuinely thought your Volkswagen would float.

I was wrong. I should not have called your spouse "literally the worst. " There must be someone on the planet more insufferable.

Apologies for skinny dipping in your pool. How was I to know your priest was coming over to bless the house?

Sorry I gave your kids all those espressos after they trash talked my basketball skillz.

I want to hear reporters asking Republican politicians: how does a potential president with felony convictions expect to receive classified briefings?

In the continuing quest to boost my mom's nutrition, the nurse said to get her some supplemental protein drinks. Is there a brand that is both sound nutritionally, and tastes good, in Yall's experience? She doesn't really care for Ensure or Boost, but so far, she does like the Owyn chocolate and she especially likes the Atkin's Chai Latte.
