If you want a straight line, you have to put a single penny in the bed of the truck. The weight is enough to cause it to pop a wheelie!

First Eastern Black Swallowtail of the season. Eastern Black Swallowtails are all females. They sport an alternate coloration from the yellow & black Eastern Tiger Swallowtails.

This black coloration is not considered ideal for mating chances, but it does help these ladies live longer & avoid predators.

“What’s your mutation? Teleportation? Laser Eyes? Weaponized Tornadoes?”

“…I… I can smell ants... how about yours?”

“Oh… well… my mutation is that cilantro tastes like chalk to me.”

Luke, a golden doodle, finally caught some shut eye after the assholes down the street quit with the fireworks.

Happy Memorial Day!

I didn’t commit suicide.

I had a plan, had it all laid out, and knew when I was ready.

Proceeded to get life saving-ly drunk & passed out. Woke up with a knife in my hand the next morning & knew I need to go to the hospital.

Cleaned myself up, called in sick to work, & went to UCLA Med.

Still here today thankfully. And as much as I appreciate what bourbon did for me that night, I have slowed my consumption significantly & have my head on straight.

Not until the fifth panel is drawn. Until the fifth panel drawn it is impossible to know whether they died or fused grotesquely into a single festering green-goopy figure who becomes a local superhero, and, overtime, earns the moniker of Toxic Avenger, thus rebooting the greatest franchise of all time.

It’s 50/50.

It’s also pretty FUCKED UP that she was cleared for the procedure by one judge, giving her a glimmer of relief, only to have that snatched back by the Texas Supreme Court like 2 days later.

This whole situation & every lawmaker involved is proper fucked.

Here it is:

Ever since I was young. I expressed interest in healthcare and becoming a nurse, so I began my study I gave my heart, my body, and my mind to you My long days and hours dedicated and giving you my all. There were times that working in the emergency room were extremely difficult, but also extremely rewarding. I have cried with my patients, with their families, and for them. They have even been there for me, and emotionally supported me during my hard times. The hands of all the patients and families that I have held, hold mine with me everyday of my nursing career encouraging me and showing me why I do what I do. I thought that would be all I needed to be able to care for them, and I know I had told you I would be with you to the end.

Told you I would be there through the good and the bad but you have taken my heart and slowly crushed the goodness it had.

You love bombed me with affection, because I knew I was going into something that matters. You made me feel comfortable, despite the rumors of your abusive past that I didn't want to believe. The compliments, pizzas, and thank you letters began to slowly have less meaning. The staff I had to help began to go away. They were unnecessary, in your eyes but so necessary for the patients and nurses to provide what you advertise as "quality care". When I thought it couldn't get worse you proved me very wrong when you started gaslighting and manipulating us.

You go around asking my colleagues and I what we need to help patients and improve satisfaction scores but when we tell you the truth you instead send us online courses saying we need to smile more and be friendlier. I remember the first time I heard about nurses getting hit and how you asked them what they did to get hurt or didn't do to prevent someone else from hurting them. Remember, you cant try to protect yourself by fighting back just lay there with your hands over your head during the minutes it takes for security to come. You started blaming us for things out of our control. Started criminally charging my colleagues, for things that were from what you are doing. As you know, the law doesn't care for the Swiss Cheese Model." I no longer feel like you care about me or the people you say you serve. I sit at my front desk just waiting for someone to come in and shoot my patients and I, just because of your lack of care for our protection You haven't even given us metal detectors or proper security to promptly keep us safe. You are only using and exploiting us to line your pocket with the common citizen's money for overcharged healthcare You don't care about anyone because you have a narcissistic personality.

If you say you cared, why don't you listen while we beg on our hands and knees. You say that we do so much and that we put up with so much When we think we are finally going to get the love and support we deserve, we only walk in to get free pizza and pens for the "healthcare heroes". Truth is you only care about your personal greed.

I want so desperately to continue to help people, but I cannot stay in this abusive relationship. You have asked me to do more with less every day, beating me to the point that my body and mind feel like they are black, bruised, and bleeding out. I'm only sorry to my colleagues and patients, you deserve so much better.

But my abusive partner is relentless, and if I stay, I will only lose my sanity and possibly my life forever.

Seriously, the last line of the article, which is buried beneath the collage of ads, stated that the mom actually had to pay $250 to get her rights to her own son’s body back…

Holy fuck, indeed.
