Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

DH, along with his fellow colleagues are all alarmed by the latest from his school. The administration had to issue a statement that the school could not block ICE enforcement on school property. Understandably a large number of parents won’t let their children go to school now. It doesn’t matter if they are citizens or have other legal status. They won’t risk kids disappearing The level of fear and stress is crushing.
No sign of stroke is good! Hoping you get continued good news.
Sending all the -ma msbelle. Both for your mom and calming vibes to you.
Tests look clear. They are having her stay overnight for observation.
I went out and broke up and threw chunks of ice. If my physical body is exhausted my brain has fewer weasels.

Hooray for clear tests! That has to be a relief.
Sending love, msbelle

That’s terrible, Laura. I have been worried about your friends and B’s basketball kids. I hope they can stay safe.
That's promising, msbelle, for sure.
Laura, it's horrible. Totally understandable that they're keeping their kids at home. This is just horrific -- physically, psychologically, and emotionally unbearable, and this regime knows that and revels in the suffering and damage it is inflicting across the board. Zero shame or conscience.

This! Very much this.
I’m still vaguely sickly. I don’t have a lot of energy reserves and I’m still coughing up gunk. Today is the last day of my second round of antibiotics, which I’d hoped would take care of everything.
I’m frustrated with work because our c-level team has enthusiastically drank the AI Kool-Aide, to the point that AI usage is going to be a factor in our annual reviews. Not that there’s been any explanation on how that’s going to work, of course. And the owner of the company is offering a prize to whoever uses AI the best to increase their productivity; a four day trip to wherever in the continental US the winner wants to go, all expenses paid, with the owner tagging along. (In my daydream about winning, I can’t decide between Disneyland or the new Dark Universe park at Universal Studios Florida.)
If I never hear the term “vibe coding” again it will be too soon.
“vibe coding”
Makes actual testing, at all levels, even more important -- but it's hard to get management to budget for or spend the additional resources, because testing isn't sexy.
Failures and rollback/reversions are embarrassing and expensive, though.
