Why no prints? It costs about $350 for scanning & colour correction at this size. Plus the cost of the prints themselves. The last 5 paintings I've had scanned have sold a total of 12 of all of them. For a loss of around $1500 and while I still have the prints, I have about 450 in stock prints
fuck this country. if you're uninsured, a goodrx coupon will bring the flu shot down to about $30 to $40. (you'll have to match the coupon to the particular flu vaccine that pharmacy has). many pharmacies will not proactively offer to look for a coupon for you, some will. 🧵

In my latest @nejm.org Voices column, I reflect on the ways @profkori.bsky.social's concept of Know Your Place Aggression helps makes sense of a time a patient with sepsis was almost given the wrong care voices.nejm.org/doi/full/10....
Know-Your-Place Aggression Is a Threat to Patient Safety
Racism and sexism are a risk to good patient care and safety.

Anyway Ash just cost me $1,200 so not to be manipulative or anything but it would be a great day to buy a book! Already have one? Get one for a friend! Have no money? Beat someone up and take their wallet (j/k please order from your library).

Hang on why the fuck is anybody selling any kind of sprouts and anybody buying them?? In my wretched youth you could get alfalfa sprouts (they're delicious) and then a massive salmonella outbreak happened and it turns out there's no safe way to grow microgreens on an industrial scale and no more.
Broccoli sprouts grown by a company in Idaho are being recalled after they were linked to a salmonella outbreak, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration.
WATCH: Billions of gallons of toxic oil field wastewater are injected below Oklahoma each year. Some of it is spreading uncontrollably and blasting out of old wells. Our documentary with @readfrontier.bsky.social exposes what regulators knew — and how they did little about the risks.

We have a standardized interview question about how diversity improves our learning and training experiences. No one has answered this question in terms of disability, though. It's always been about race, ethnicity, culture, etc.
These people can all get fucked. People with disabilities offer an incredible amount to the workplace. Trust me when I say you likely have no idea of how much harder they are working than others. And yet, people tend to view others’ accommodations like they are personally being robbed.
A new meta-analysis (of 22 studies) has found that “Toilet flushing can propel aerosols into bathroom air at adult breathing height,” which is yet another reason to put the lid down, and which is yet another reason to keep wearing a mask.
