i still can't manage to find a geneticist that takes my insurance. the closest one is an hour and a half away. like what??? surely other people have congenital defects they need chromosomal testing for. one thing i detest is how agonizingly slow the investigation of physical health issues is

actually it's really not similar to the original series at all. it takes place in the middle of season 1 and season 2. nancy and steve aren't relevant. they add a completely new character to the friend group who feels like someone's self insert character. but? i like it and i support animation 👀

i think it's funny and sad that they just dropped the 2nd season of the animated stranger things series and i haven't seen people talk about it. the art style is similar to arcane's painted art style and the voice actors sound the same. they even canonically made hawkins an old mining town. lore

I think the "debate" about bringing iced coffee to job interviews is effective at distracting people from the really bad job market, the high unemployment rate for Black women, ongoing mass layoffs in tech and media, and how Gen Z workers are refusing to adopt many toxic aspects of corp work culture

These are not normal times. Your internalized expectations of what you *should* be able to accomplish right now are likely not calibrated for the kind of distress we're all experiencing. Forgive yourself for struggling, forgive your colleagues and friends and family and strangers for struggling.

mamdani's free pre-k initiative is so incredibly helpful for parents when pre-k can cost families in indiana, a low COL state, $240-$300 a week. can't even imagine what it would cost in NYC 😱 this is something parents need in order to work and its something a lot ofpeople have to put on credit cards

Three panel comic. Panel 1: Genghis khan is sitting in a throne room. His advisor enters with a fruity drink in hand. The advisor proclaims, “Genghis Khan! I bring a gift from a faraway land!” Panel 2: he continues, “a ‘strawberry margarita.’” Genghis takes a delicate yet generous sip. Panel 3: Genghis and his advisor exchange smiles. Genghis says, “yeeooo that’s fire”

AITA for leaving these train tracks out that the 3 year old i nanny for built because he insisted i leave them out? he was adamant 😭 don't want to seem like i'm overly catering to the kid and ignoring my job responsibilities of reseting his play room but i also think his wishes should be respected

how about some good news: new cat just dropped!!!!
a photo of a small, spotted wild cat, with orange fur and brown circular markings, staring up with big golden eyes.Meet the First New Cat Species Discovered in 100 Years

A small, spotted tiger cat from Bolivia may just be the beginning of a wave of new small cat species.

This 10-year-old male tiger cat is the first of his species (named Leopardus tilcayo) known to science. He is approximately 18 inches from head to end of body and weighs only 3 pounds, making him smaller than the average domestic cat. This video was captured at the Senda Verde Animal Refuge in Bolivia’s Yungas region, where he currently resides.

well the good thing is it's not like we live in the most car-brained society in the world and all our infrastructure wasn't built around driving and parking and everything is walkable and we have lots of efficient and dependable public transportation. at least there's that

This story buries the lede, but if you pull out a calculator and do the math, AAA found that the average American spends $15,031 a year for a single car! www.cnbc.com/2026/09/14/c...
cnbc.com
Car ownership costs an average of $5,851 a year on top of auto loan payments, analysis finds
The cost of insurance, gas, and maintenance or repairs can add thousands of dollars a year to the price of owning a car.

i just really try not to look at my private loan statements because i was a dumb 18 year old and chose variable interest rates not knowing that private loan companies are evil. it genuinely makes me sick sometimes looking at my statements.

man my student loan payments are paused because of the big storms we received, and cool, but it won't even show me what i owe. i think this unfortunately highly benefits private loan companies because it allows the loans to further skyrocket out of control because of predatory private loan rates
