Sharing some good news: I got a call yesterday with reassuring pathology: uterine biopsy non-malignant. I will proceed with surgery (given my risks).
Bottom line: Seek medical care for post-menopausal vaginal bleeding. It is endometrial cancer until proven otherwise, the most common gyne cancer.

Remember when the UK govt said Rafah was a red line and Israel flattened it and we did nothing?
Hind Khoudary reports that Israel plans to do the same to Gaza City as it did to Rafah.

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all:
“If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.”
Israel just killed him.

Do you value your library?
Trump just ordered the dismantling of the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the key source of federal support for libraries.
Libraries are vital social infrastructure, the foundations of an open, democratic society. Gutting them means gutting our own communities.

Trump Orders Gutting of 7 Agencies, Including Voice of America’s Parent
The order targeting the agencies, largely obscure entities that address issues like labor mediation and homelessness prevention, appeared to test the bounds of the president’s power.

Gerrymandering undermines the power of marginalized communities by manipulating district boundaries to weaken their collective voice. For Black, Latino, Indigenous, immigrant, low-income, and other disenfranchised groups, this often means remaining unheard in the places where decisions are made.

I’m a librarian in a film. I wear rimmed eyeglasses, pearls, and an oversized wool cardigan. I read books at the front desk, shush people, and put books back on shelves. But at night, when I release my long hair out of its usual tight bun, RAWR!
I’m a physician in a film. I practice every kind of medicine and never need to ask for help from other physicians. I’m also extremely attractive and live life like I work a 9 to 5 job with all evenings and weekends off.
I’m a programmer in a film. I can “hack” into any “database” in the world by typing extremely quickly. The more difficult the database the faster I have to type. If a photograph of any sort is involved in the plot I can decipher crucial details by “enhancing the lower right quadrant” of it.
