It's the little things that erode trust in society.
According to the law, police must at least try to locate the owner of a vehicle before wrecking it.
In practice, they just show up and tow.
And they expect us to trust them?
We need to stop accepting these infringes as norm

In 1935, two American doctors examined seven women's ovaries and saw small lumps. They called them cysts and named the disease after them. They were wrong. It took 91 years to fix.
What we called PCOS is now Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS), announced today in The Lancet by an international panel of doctors and patients. The renaming followed more than a decade of consensus work and 22,000 patient and clinician survey responses.
The lumps Stein and Leventhal saw were never cysts. Modern imaging shows they were follicles, the tiny sacs inside the ovary that grow and release an egg each month, frozen partway through by a hormonal imbalance. PMOS is a multi-system disorder centered in the endocrine system, the body's network of glands that produces hormones like insulin (controls blood sugar), cortisol (the stress hormone), and thyroid hormones (set the body's metabolism). The ovary trouble flows downstream from there.
The naming choice is not academic. When doctors hear "ovary" in a diagnosis, they look at the ovary. "Metabolic" and "endocrine" send them to the whole body.
PMOS affects roughly 1 in 8 women worldwide, more than 170 million people. The WHO estimates 70% have never been diagnosed. Among those who do, 1 in 3 wait more than 2 years, and nearly half see 3 or more doctors first. The CDC reports more than half of women with PMOS develop type 2 diabetes by age 40, a risk 5 to 10 times higher than women without the condition. Around 37% have clinically significant depression, compared with 14% in women without it. Anxiety runs at 42% versus 8.5%.
A label born from a 1935 look at seven ovaries is finally going away. The new diagnostic guidelines roll out fully in 2028. By then, a woman walking into a clinic with these symptoms should hear questions about her blood sugar and her mood alongside her cycle. Those are the parts of the disease the old name hid for 91 years.
A girl just said she tried to get rejected 1000 times in 2025 and ended up being cast in plays, winning pageants, securing hella paid brand deals, and appearing in commercials.This is your sign to chase rejection to the point of "accidental" success. You'll be surprised.
Find audacity. There is nothing that will help you more in this life than audacity, find it, let it push you to do things , to silence the noise , to go back to school, to leave the country, to start a business, to do things . To fight for your life.
I toasted mine and had one slice with butter & another with homemade olive tapenade - it was delicious. It may not have been what I was expecting for a focaccia but I quite enjoyed the taste & flavour. I hope you offer it again soon - as a focaccia or bake - I just want more ๐
"But as it turns out, making one focaccia is not quite the same as making fifty-something focaccia. I thought I could โjust scale up the recipeโ and use large bins to stretch/fold and bulk ferment the dough. Boy was I wrong". - @buhdahwee - Post "Pop-Up" Blog.

@republicbanktt when are you going to fix your mobile app?
It used to be very reliable but it's now incredibly unreliable and inconvenient. I have to try multiple times to sign in, it freezes, it glitches. A transaction that should take less than 5 minutes is taking >15 mins.
Sending me voice notes as a main way of communication is a sure way of me ignoring that message until I feel like listening to it.
And, they also taking up precious storage space on my phone.
Omggg. I liked one tweet about being single on Valentines day and now my whole feed is about being single on valentines ๐ฉ here is really an echo chamber fr fr
