CMS and 37 states are launching a new quality initiative focused more on actual health outcomes—such as chronic-disease control, prevention and behavioral health—rather than paperwork and process measures

I don’t photograph things simply because they’re beautiful. I photograph the moments that make me pause the light falling across an old street, a fleeting expression, the quiet details most people walk past.📷✨

The Chehalis tribe of Washington State just south of Olympia have retaken possession of land along the I-5 corridor. This is how they repurposed the billboard facing the freeway.

I do not have children but I would like the lives of parents to be made easier with the abundance of wealth we have in this country because, say it with me now, we live in a society. Thank you.

Many people act like I'm a crazy Luddite for not using AI in my work, but honestly at this point I want to hear a really good argument for using it, at least in scholarly/creative work. The downsides just seem way too significant, and they appear to be growing day by day

well, it wasn't a climate problem, but this way of doing things has made it one and both need to be fixed (or in the case of the greed-based system, scrapped for one that is better and actually works indefinitely).

Old kitty found a roll of the terrible toilet paper that had been set aside for being so terrible. She did the cat thing and shredded it. I put the shredded TP in a box, she has barely left that box since.

I know there is a hell of a lot going on right now. But not all of it is bad. Some is astonishingly good - like the results of this study from June. Cervical cancer is a terribly cruel thing. This might, at long last, be the beginning of the end of it. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

While listening to council meetings in Montreal, local mayor Sue Montgomery decided to knit in red when men spoke and in green when women spoke, when similar numbers of both attended. Day 1 results.... #WomensArt

Don't forget the main reason DOGE shut down USAID: to stop investigations into Elon & his companies. That was DOGE's entire job- stop all 32 active investigations which Musk feared would put him in prison. Killing people was the collateral damage from saving his own ass: bsky.app/profile/robv...

Paper cuts can hurt intensely because they are usually superficial, affect highly sensitive areas, and receive repeated stimulation from movement, while tiny fibers may also contribute to local wound irritation around the wound over time.

I have a dear friend whose daughter has cancer & children. She was 2 months pregnant when the cancer was discovered. She & her husband made the hard choice to fight the cancer & terminate the pregnancy. THEY made the decision with her doctors. No politicians. So thankful to live in a blue state.

Todd Blanche now says "one-sided news" is a national security threat worth barring the press over. That's not a legal standard. It's a viewpoint test. I didn’t go to law school…and didn’t need to, to know that the First Amendment exists to STOP government from judging which coverage is balanced.

Every time I try to talk about deaf cats, my phone corrects it to "dead." It's getting quite awkward. "Have you got any dead cats that need a home?" "Would you consider adopting a dead cat?" "He can't live with kids, he's dead"
