It's time for my yearly disclaimer - unless you are a member of my immediate family or a coworker at my day job, I no longer exist until after Christmas! My DMs and inbox are open, but they are black holes where messages go to die.

So a family physician friend of mine spent part of her Friday looking up treatment algorithms for what happens when a child from a daycare with a ?rubella outbreak comes home with a rash to a mom who is pregnant with another child.
Yes, this is in Saskatchewan. In 2024.

(This is not a tech support question, by the way, this is a request for @googlechrome to return a feature that they completely disabled in the latest update. I'm not the only person frustrated over this: https://t.co/S6LHpMX2UP)

[Stephonee | PoorerThanYou @stephonee]

What do I have to do to get @googlechrome to give me back the downloads bar? Completely disrupting my workflow for my "day" job to have my downloads go up into that little bubble thing.

ISU has been silent for 54 hours after apparently doing only half the math on the re-ordering of the 2022 Olympic team bronze medal. It subtracted 20 pts from ROC for the Valieva DQ, but failed to add a point each (SP and LP) to the remaining women. Just trying to help here. 😉

Looking for a freelance YouTube video editor

Projects need to be edited this week for additional capacity, fast turnaround

Videos are simple enough, more educational style, so animations needed for intro and probably not much else on rest of video

DM me

Amber Glenn skated a dazzling and clean short program at #PrevagenUSChamps 🇺🇸 to Heads will Roll and received a standing ovation. She got a PB 74.98 points for her effort which included a triple flip-triple toe combo and all level four spins.
“I just had a really good time, especially in the step sequence,” she said. “I really felt the crowd behind me and I just had an overall enjoyable experience.”
“When I go out there and I see the signs and the flags and how excited people are, I just feel them with me in the performance,” Amber said. “And sometimes that does add a bit extra pressure but I feel like it also lifts me up at the same time.”

@AnnaHelhoski We didn't get help from parents but did get help from the government in the form of a first time homebuyer program where the price was set by the county to make it affordable for families earning <70% of area median income.

It blows my mind that the Dependent Care FSA limit is $5,000.

That covers less than 2 months of daycare.

The craziest part?! The $5k limit was established in 1986 and hasn't moved since!

What a joke.

It was so great to see @Dracogen back on Desert Bus! I couldn't say anything during because chat isn't working on my phone (😭) but it was a joy to hear Steve's stories and see some of the cool video game stuff he's been making happen. #db2023

[Desert Bus for Hope @DesertBus]

This is a reminder that we are talking with a friend of the bus Steve Dengler @Dracogen. Hear about all the fantastic and riduculous adventures and projects he has been up to!

I've seen enough: Democrats win control of the Virginia House of Delegates, flipping the GOP majority and giving them control of both chambers.
