I am a medical laboratory scientist, I assure you we can tell by looking at your blood how lipemic (lipids- triglycerides) your blood is by eye- it looks like Crisco in centrifuged blood (we even have ultracentrifuge that spins out the floating fats, unspun blood looks like strawberry smoothy). I apologize if I ruined foods.

The more conservatives do, the more convinced I am that they're just communists in christian clothing. I had one conservative consplain* to me that childless couples are flouting tax laws by not having children and they should be fined and heavily taxed. Nicolae Ceaușescu, Romanian communist dictator, did exactly that. He also banned abortions. Conservatives ban books. China renames territories and redraws country boarders on their official maps. An interesting read: https://www.newsweek.com/republicans-trump-compared-communism-democrats-viral-1941019 It makes me thing that conservatives are just self-loathers. * Conservatives tell me things.

So I was once asked on the phone— when I was a civilian employee dispatcher — if it was ‘legally allowed to shoot Bigfoot’. I reply ‘it’s not legal to shoot at things you can’t see properly, sir. Either you’re shooting at a bear out of season or you’re shooting at a dude.’ Then he handed me the straight line of straight lines. ‘Yes, but what if I think it’s Bigfoot?’ ‘Still murder, sir.’

Cecil - Good post with options for non-google services. Time to de-Google! https://imgur.com/gallery/balg0GA

Apple has a lot of the same services as Google. Most are free. iCloud for storage and email. There’s also Pages, Numbers, and Keynote have web versions similar to Docs, Sheets, and Presentations. iCloud+ you can even have your own domain email (I have my email eric@erickenney.com running through Apple’s services). This is an additional cost, but I think it is cheaper than Google Workspace.

This is the episode I needed this week. Thank you for saving my sanity one episode at a time.
