Maui death toll is a lot higher than official numbers, residents believe. If you watch the videos where the local government talks to reports, it's so clear that the mayor is an thug, and seems to be making excuses for all the blunders.

Kelowna, B.C. is in flames. Even worse than Lahaina, it looks like the Eagle Creek fire of 2017. There are so many fires, Wikipedia already has a page about this.

ChatGPT is left-wing. No surprise, since Silicon Valley is mostly left-wing.

Shit-life syndrome. There's a name for this:
"The phrase seemed to denote a level of long-standing poverty, family breakdown, lack of stability, unemployment and potential risk factors common to many of the predominately young, working class patients referred to the [psychotherapeutic] service" for shit is "something that we continually reject, get rid of or hide. At the same time it is something we cannot completely repudiate, it is part of us, something we need" and that the individuals with SLS have problems so "terrible, so untouchable" that they "quite literally cannot be thought about, cannot be handled by the service", yet a therapeutic organisation is "obliged to do so"

X/Twitter has deleted all images and link posted between 2011 and 2014. It's still not clear if this was intentional. (Hmm, what was Hunter Biden doing during this time?)
There's a clinic in France serving 5000 patients, with only nurses and no doctors. An interesting real-life experiment. In the Pacific NW, all we hear about are nursing shortages, not doctor shortages, and clearly there are both. But a doctor shortage just means you can't grow local healthcare, as long as you maintain your current pool of doctors. You can't function at all without enough nurses. Having a bunch of nurse without a doctor is like a headless ant colony. It can sort of function, but there is no direction, and everything is just on automatic. There is no longitudinal care, unless a dedicated nurses decides to take your case on. But nursing work is shift work. As the physician becomes more of a commodity in today's medicine, either the doctor will need to re-invent the discipline, or be resigned to be content with just being a cog in the healthcare wheel.
Edit: Lines are indeed blurring between nurse and doctor. As nurses are developing skills to do patient care on their own, it's going to take more for physicians to distinguish themselves as being worth their extra pay.
