This week in crone-ism (not to be confused w/cronyism): learned I've aged into "sorry you can't get in to see that OB/GYN for a breast lump assessment because you're too old" (i.e. > 50, even tho still bleeding).

Jacob Soboroff@jacobsoboroff.bsky.social · 3d agoMinnesota’s Superior National Forest received a $10 million grant in 2024 to cover wildfire prevention efforts, then DOGE delayed funding. now, parts of that area are burning.
