    Yup. If she really wanted to make a difference she could could go be a family medicine doc in an underserved area, but of course she’s way too special for that. Developing an app in LA and Hawaii is how you really help people.

    Casey Means is an interesting one. She graduated from Stanford Medical School and then went to do an ENT residency but dropped out when she was close to being done- she claimed she got disillusioned with the medical system that incentivizes procedures done on sick people for profit versus...

    The Music Thread

    Saw The Acacia Strain last night in Greensboro. Incredibly fun show. Metal shows are normally total sausage fests, but there was a noticeably high number of normal-looking women there, even though The Acacia Strain is one of the angriest/heaviest bands around right now.

    I have been wondering lately what will happen as the large language models continue to train on an internet which is made up of an ever-increasing proportion of AI-generated content. Can only imagine the quality will get worse and further degrade the user experience of both the AI models and the...

    Off-Topic Car Brands

    I think it’s time for us to buy a minivan. We have a Subaru Outback but it’s still cramped with a 7 and 3 year old, especially when carpooling and when my wife picks up our 1 year old niece. Seems like the Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna are the clear leaders, any reason to choose one over the...

    That’s a fun conspiracy rabbit hole to go down. Some people believe there are aliens in the sites as well (the Dulce base in New Mexico). There are massive underground government bunkers in Pennsylvania, Virginia and Colorado: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raven_Rock_Mountain_Complex

    Off-Topic The Lonely Dogs (and Cats) Thread

    This is Honey. My wife and I adopted her and another cat the week after we got back from our honeymoon. They came from a severe hoarding situation- 200 cats in an 800 square foot house. I’ll try to find the news article about it. The healthy cats were spread to shelters across the state, and we...

    Between this and the movie tariff tweet, he clearly watched The Rock last night. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0117500/

    The Music Thread

    Beato’s fine and obviously knows a lot but is kind of overly serious for me. Yes, I get it, Led Zeppelin and the Beatles are the best to ever do it. Thanks for making another video about how great their chord progressions are. It’s a different lane, but Pat Finnerty has a series of videos...

    Politics Tariffs Catch-All

    The tweet or whatever it’s called reads like he’s having an actual sundowning episode.

    That is maybe the most insane thing a cabinet level official has ever said out loud. Amazing how he can have such strong opinions on something and clearly not have the faintest fucking clue how they’re made, tested or regulated.

    It’s essential for those scam pharmacies to make a boatload of money. The pill mills in Florida have transitioned from narcotics to ivermectin and other stuff for preppers. The one in the ad sells a “bunker bundle” for $2000 with antibiotics, corticosteroids, prescription strength NSAIDs and...

    Blows my mind that inflation got them elected and they’re doing the one thing that has a 100% chance of raising prices.
