That's only part of the problem. We're also seeing the first climate refugees, coming in because drought or flooding have destroyed food sources where they've always lived. It's move or starve, and watch their children starve. And that part is only going to get worse.
Tomorrow is the beginning of #BlackHistoryMonth and this Friday is my birthday, so I'm engaging in some shameless self-promotion!

Selfish reasons why you, a US person who doesn't have #adhd should care about the ADHD meds shortage in the US right now:
- We are your employees who were making money for you but are suddenly unproductive
- We are the irate customer who can't calm down and isn't hearing what you're saying
- We are driving on the same roads as you and your loved ones and we're not texting while driving but we might as well be
Unselfish reason: when untreated, this disorder makes us miserable.

Always a great feeling: this year, I did not even miss any tipples. Why? No more knee pain: no need to self-medicate to simply move or fall asleep. Wish I'd swapped out that knee years ago. ππ₯°π #DryJanuary

Realizing my experience is not universal is what did it for me.
U.S. border officials copy the contents of up to 10,000 phones and computers every year and save them to a big database for 15 years, as we first reported in September: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/09/15/government-surveillance-database-dhs/
Following pressure from Sen. Wyden, the agency, CBP, now says it's considering shrinking that 15-year save time and plans to give people more details about what they're doing: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/01/31/abraham-accords-expand-with-cybersecurity-collaboration/
Sunsets, skate boarding & his positive nature were all things Tyre Nichols was known for.
When Nichols was murdered by cops, he was on his way home from taking sunset photos at a park.
He was 100 yards away from his parents' house when he was stopped by cops who killed him.
Nichols is survived by his 4 y/o son.
He loved being a father & loved his son.
When he wasn't working, Nichols headed to Shelby Farms Park to skateboard, something he'd been doing since he was 6 y/o.

My imaginary friends had me served with a restraining order.
Had a great idea for a cooking show where two cooks walk around forests cooking various wild animals.
But they wonβt let me call it the Beary Hikers.

Just been for an evening walk with Jean Paul which is always delightful as itβs basically a whole load of this π
Published in 2016, this brilliant comic by artist Joe Dater somehow feels even more timely in 2023. #art
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
