Am I the only one who can't log any final day of grace period CM credits or did someone make a goof on the backend? @APA_Planning

@moej4prez Wrapping around a flower garland?

[Amy O @ajacobi5]

@ReadtheMeade Probably a little longer since it requires some capacity for independent thought, but yeah. By the end of Jr year of college, I could write a 20 page paper in 24 hours. Never used my laptop in class for notes.

On the downside, a #gastax holiday would accelerate the insolvency of the imperiled highway trust fund.

On the upside, drivers would save somewhere between $4.79 and $14.31 over three months.

Don't spend it all in one place!

@erind90 Usually if you call and ask, they will take it off your record if it's the first time, especially if you're like "oh I thought that X would count"

@LeahLibresco Also my parents are 3+ hours away. Inlaws are 30 minutes but even that isn't super convenient as the ~10 my parents lived from their parents when my oldest brother was born.

[Amy O @ajacobi5]

@LeahLibresco Agree. My parents are already in their mid-70s with their 4th grandchild on the way. They might be able to muster energy for a weekend or support for a week with us parents, but they just don't have the gas in the tank. My inlaws are mid 60s and their stamina is a little higher.

@juliefalbo What are you playing it on? I've been trying to track this game down for ages to play on PS

[Amy O @ajacobi5]

@moej4prez Absolutely. My husband literally did every chore, played with our child if she wasn't feeding or sleeping, and tried his best to encourage things like my hygiene for well over a year, maybe closer to 2. Didn't complain once.

@1goodtern My midwife acted like I was nuts for wearing a respirator to a routine pregnancy appt. the other day. It was so disappointing.

She assumed I was sick (not sure why I would be in a flomask if I was) and then when I said I always wear it in public, her face was telling...

[Amy O @ajacobi5]

Truly a new low. I was already writing emails to my coworkers with clients as go betweens, but having AI respond to things is somehow even more sad?

[Amy O @ajacobi5]

Saw a client today just... Copy/paste the AI summary from a meeting and present it as their own in an email to their boss and further up the hierarchy Didn't even bother to change references to themselves from "Last, First (Org)" format to anything pretending to be natural.

[Amy O @ajacobi5]

This same person also asked earlier in the day if something creative my team did had been run through [AI tool] yet and if we asked the tool about making it a podcast (instead of videos).

[Amy O @ajacobi5]

I am SO MAD that I didn't get to keep mine. I'd probably wear it around my neck ala Turk Wendell.

Zack Wheeler kept the rib that was removed as part of the thoracic outlet surgery and it’s sitting in a closet in his house.

Highly recommend watching the IMSA Rolex 24 race on Peacock instead of doom scrolling right now.

It's OK to take a break from being outraged and disgusted by our government's violent and lawless "LEOs".

[Amy O @ajacobi5]

@JohnDeMarsico @MonSportsNet hire him!

@VaRailExpress PID monitors at L'Enfant are all showing Google instead of info

The increased number of people in their 30s-50s getting diagnosed with ALS is not a mystery, y'all. Mask up.

[Amy O @ajacobi5]

And yet, I was in the very small minority masking at a busy conference this week. "Oh you're just being cautious!"

"No, I am protecting my brain and other organs."

[tern @1goodtern]

I tried and tried to warn people.

"This is among the first studies to suggest that a virus (Covid) may contribute to abnormal tau production (a key protein in Alzheimer's pathology) over time".

@jdflynn Started praying for increases in vocations to priesthood and religious life with 3 yr old.

3: What's a vocation?
It's when God calls you to do something. But you have to say Yes.
3: So you can say no?
Correct, but he might keep calling you until you say Yes. 😂
