- My doctor, the equipment supplier, and the manufacturer tell me to change my CPAP mask cushion every 2 weeks for safe and effective therapy. Insurance will give me *1* per 6 MONTHS. No one at any part of the process can do anything about it. Our health system is so broken and I feel so defeated.
- @berniew.bsky.social as the emcee of NYC's mayoral inauguration is a perfect choice! 💟 🚋

- Also, this link is to a website that has cloned the gmail inbox and made it so it looks like you're logged in as Jeffrey Epstein, lol
- Cold-emailing Noam Chomsky with *just this* gives me a better idea of who Jeffrey Epstein was than anything else I've seen or read. #linguistics "we dont teach children to see. they have a visual grammar built in. why wouldnt we expect some mutation of that system to allow auditory grammar."
- My first reading of this post and sub-headline was that the judge put a limit on the lawful number of troops in the city at 2,000 - so that many is ok, but no more. #quantifiers #linguistics

- "[If] Justice Jackson suspected that at least 5 justices would grant temporary relief to the Trump admin if she didn’t, the way she structured the stay [enables her] to try to control the timing of the forthcoming review & create pressure for it to happen faster." www.stevevladeck.com/p/190-snap-wtf
- The above quote is slightly altered by me to fit the whole idea into one skeet.
