Non-precancerous polyps (hyperplastic) are little more than internal skin tags and don't usually cause concern. Adnomas are termed "pre-cancerous", although they often don't result in cancer. But producing polyps at all presents an increased risk of future polyps. Hence, more frequent exams.

SOA's last two episodes were a (small) breath of fresh air, and an overly-handy wrap up of plot loose ends.

Mayans and Sons of Anarchy. Both started well, but when the lead characters became just thugs like the rest of the gangs, it became boring. For the same reason, The Sopranos.

Scent of the day: Hearth. Sweet pipe tobacco, cherry wood, the warm, worn leather of an easy chair and a pleasant, subtle waft of fireplace smoke. #sotd #bpal #perfumesky

Scent of the day: Death Biting a Snake. BPAL’s sibilant Snake Oil (deep, rich, earthy notes swirled with vegetal musks, sugared vanilla bean, and dark spices) getting chomped by the pallor of white sandalwood, orris root, frankincense, ambrette seed, and rice powder. #bpal #sotd #perfumesky

Scent of the day: 'Tis Strange. Both bog and castle, moor and battlefield, chivalry and nightmare: scarred leather armor, moss-covered stone, shadows upon shadows, and billows of black incense. #bpal #sotd #perfumesky

If you are a fan of the notion of Total Theatre, you won’t do much better than the Met Opera’s Akhnaten. Saw it live in 2022, and you can find it on metopera.org. (They have a 7-day free trial.) Breathtaking Glass score. #theatresky #operasky #phillipglass

Scent of the day: Count Dracula. The essence of nobility, brutality and true Will made flesh and propelled through the eons by an ever-burning hatred: black patchouli, neroli, tonka, cinnamon, bitter clove, leather, black musk, coffin wood, and fiery ginger. #bpal #perfumesky #sotd

The Carnegie Foundation supported construction of hundreds of public libraries across the U.S. and Canada, and still grants money to them. (My local library just got a $10K grant from Carnegie!) Elon Musk can scarcely read.

Scent of the day: In Necessariis Unitas. "In essential things, unity." A perfume to strengthen our bonds to one another for support in trying times: sweet patchouli, oakmoss, red oud, guiac wood, mahogany, and honeyed vetiver. #perfumesky #bpal #sotd

I never lived in a world where the tip "used to be 10%" (and I've been in this world for awhile). The standard was 15%, and I've been tipping--in cash when possible--20-25% depending upon service quality. My bet is that this is AI slop.

"Public Service Announcement: the right to free speech means the government can't arrest you for what you say.
"It doesn't mean that anyone else has to listen to your bullshit, or host you while you share it.
"The 1st Amendment doesn't shield you from criticism or consequences.
"If you're yelled at, boycotted, have your show cancelled, or get banned from an internet community, your free speech rights aren't being violated.
"It's just that the people listening think you're an asshole and they're showing you the door."

On the flip side, the person that handed you that item is likely making sub-minimum wage. YOU try living on $2.15/hour. (For the math deficient, that's $4210/year before taxes, assuming that they are working a full 40 hours a week, which I would wager they're not.)
