I wish I had better recommendations than I do, but Ex survives Crohn's via Soylent drinks. Blended/blender soups may be the way to go, especially if served over mashed potatoes for caloric density.

If they hadn't just redesigned the logo, I'd suggest this. Because COME ON.

I LOVE how @propublica.org dealt with official comment here, editorially and stylistically.
The Trump administration says none of this is happening. 

"DHS is NOT arresting U.S. citizens by mistake." "There are no 'indiscriminate' stops." Allegations of "racial profiling are disgusting, reckless and categorically FALSE." "The pattern is NOT of law enforcement using force." "ICE does not zip tie or restrain children." 

But that is precisely what is happening, and at a far larger scale than previously reported.

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

Between my poor grip, poor depth perception in left eye, and just general clumsiness, I fear *I'd* end up looking like a crime scene.

Yeah, I just have a Pelikan Twist that uses short cartridges -- I'm too accident prone for a *nice* one that uses real ink. 😅 Nice grip for arthritic/disabled hands, though!

By raking in $2.2 billion last year, President Trump made the equivalent of a presidential salary about every two hours. And he made the median American's annual income about every 10 minutes.

I've only just started the book (obviously), but you capture Astarion's voice so beautifully. I'm going to do read #1 as physical book, and then I will definitely track down Neil's audio.

Agreed. Congress's abdication of duty has actively permitted Trump regime crimes. Dems forcing votes, forcing Republicans to go on record on very unpopular things, and doing investigations with subpoenas that have actual consequences for ignoring is a start.

Brings back non-fond memories of the men getting offended that women would choose the bear. There's something very, deeply wrong with cishet male culture in the United States.

William Penn Foundation offers funding to keep Academy of Natural Sciences museum open
A Drexel spokesperson did not say whether the school had declined the offer, but said, “No proposal has been presented that would provide a permanent, sustainable path forward" for the museum.

I know "narcissist" has somehow come to mean "my ex-boyfriend", but now that one's been President for what seems like eternity, can we just take account of the damage that a real one can do? The man has a sense of self and literally nothing else. It would be fascinating if it didn't also kill people
