Thinking of you @… while you wait, brave and undaunted, for the arrival of The Plumber. Seriously darling, it will be worth the trauma to get it finally fixed. You may sigh with relief as much as you wish and crumple a little after it's over but it will still be better than doing nothing about the plumbing problems. 🫶

Meanwhile, the Israeli genocide in Gaza against Palestinians continues...
"Israel kills 59 Palestinians in Gaza, many while trying to get aid
Thirteen starving Palestinians are killed as they tried to get food near the Netzarim Corridor and in Rafah’s al-Mawasi area."

At a topline glance, Trump's Big Budget Bill is an outrage:
large tax cuts for the rich and millions kicked off health insurance,
almost a parody of what an apparently fragile coalition of contemporary conservatives might abide
(if also a bill that raised the eyebrows of a few debt scolds, including Musk).
But because it is also a one-stop legislative omnibus,
rushed so quickly through the House that Republican representatives are now protesting they didn…

Relief, utter relief, rolling off my shoulders and out of my body.

Random Batch Methods for Discretized PDEs on Graphs
Gas transport and other complex real-world challenges often require solving and controlling partial differential equations (PDEs) defined on graph structures, which typically demand substantial memory and computational resources. The Random Batch Method (RBM) offers significant relief from these demands by enabling the simulation of large-scale systems with reduced computational cost. In this paper, we analyze the application of RBM for solving PDEs on one-dimensional graphs, specifically con…

On the grounds that I don't have a good way to crosspost everything, your regularly scheduled #eurovision "tweeting"/posting/whatever will be on Bluesky only. Sorry if you were expecting that, probably relief if you weren't.

Pretty boring route this morning but I got in 9.5 miles which is a lot for a weekday morning... I then did some relief prints and got ready for work so that was the "relaxing" part of the day I guess.

Why is school lunch debt a thing? There's got to be a better way to handle it than to take a kid's lunch away from them. If the school can afford to give them an "alternative meal," why can't they afford to give them the original meal?

❝We humans are stability-seeking creatures. Getting accustomed to what used to seem unthinkable can feel like an accomplishment. And when the unthinkable recedes at least a bit…it’s easy to mistake it for proof that the dark times are ending.
But these comparatively small victories don’t alter the direction of our transformation — they don’t even slow it down measurably — even while they appeal to our deep need to normalize.…And so just when we most need to act — while there is indeed room for action and some momentum to the resistance — we tend to be lulled into complacency by the sense of relief on the one hand and boredom on the other.❞

Did I just submerge my feet in the lake? Perhaps.
Did I enjoy a short relief? Surely.

FEMA head told staff he was previously unaware US has a hurricane season
Staff at the Federal Emergency Management Agency were caught off-guard and left bewildered when the disaster relief agency’s new acting head David Richardson told personnel that he was previously unaware that the United States has a hurricane season, which started Sunday.

There are days on which the news is a relief.

Final episode of #Andor's 2nd season was the one I liked most. That droid looks amazing and is the comic relief that I needed. There's also a feeling that the clock is running out. This is something the season has lacked in my opinion. Every other episode starts with "One Year Later"...
VFX were consistently great except for some reason I didn't like the corn field plane…

Not only can French motorists breathe a sigh of relief, they can also breath more particulate matter and NOx, increasing the need to continue protesting against raising the retirement age as there are fewer years left.

MSF operations in Gaza
Last updated on May 14, 2025Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has been working in Gaza for decades and our teams have been providing lifesaving medical aid throughout the devastating war. With both local Palestinian staff and international teams operating throughout Gaza, MSF is providing medical care and humanitarian relief at a time of unimaginable suffering.

Got my first IgE inhibitor shot this afternoon.
It has only been an hour and a half, no side major effects, good nor bad. Just one large non-itchy hive, and a lump on the side of my arm where it got the shot. Needles don't usually bug me, but seeing the spring loader on it after was, interesting, to say the least.
Hoping for some relief or reduction in allergies, asthma, and upper respiratory distress I've been having with

It’s exhilarating to hear Bernie Sanders speak to a crowd:
his zeal is reflected back in their faces,
his moral clarity is such a relief,
set against the cynicism and resignation of most of the Democratic party’s opposition to Trump and his administration.
Class war is as old as time, but it’s a peculiarity of this age that you rarely hear a politician name it.
“I do,” he tells me. “There is a class war going on. The people on top are waging that war.”

How extreme heat affects America's most vulnerable
Last August, residents of New Orleans endured a spate of extreme heat alerts, warning of successive days with temperatures in the triple digits and little relief after sundown.

Today in the Capitalist Climate Catastrophe, Scott Moe, chief apologist of Saskatchewan (and Premier) for the Fossil Fuel criminals, wants a "National Firefighting Force”.
(note: I would not be opposed to this... but the fact this asshole is suggesting it while he demands more help getting his world-burning fossil fuels out of the ground is just too much.)
