Amazing!
Fictional Architecture
As special effects budgets continue to grow, the architectural wonders that TV, film and video game producers create seem to get more and more impressive.
From the castles of Westeros to the imaginative, colorful designs of Studio Ghibli, they compiled some of the most iconic and interesting architectural feats that they feel best represent six of their favorite fictional universes. In order to capture the finer details and the feel of each building, they’ve illustrated each one with a pen and paper – and they are pretty happy with the results!

NYU Medical School Plans Free Tuition For Those Studying To Be Doctors
In a move it said was to address the large cost of entering a career in medicine, New York University’s School of Medicine said Thursday that it will offer full scholarships to all current and future students in its doctor of medicine program.
NYU said it was the “only top 10-ranked” medical school in the U.S. to offer such a generous package.
“I’m proud to announce that as of right now, every student that we admit to New York University School of Medicine comes tuition-free,” Kenneth G. Langone, chair of the board of trustees, said in a video announcement Thursday. “And this includes the incoming class and the upperclassmen as well that are here right now — no more tuition.”

Impressive. It’s disheartening to see that african americans and latinx students still make up a such a small percentage of the med student population. More programs offering financial support like this may help address that, and the shortage in primary care.
can we all come together and agree that the saying “no one can truly love you until you love yourself” is trash. loving yourself takes time, and it isn’t always easy. Know that there are people out there who love you, even when you struggle to.

When Cayti Kane delivered a baby boy via cesarean section last year, her team of doctors was prepared.
Kane had been diagnosed with placenta accreta, a condition that increased the likelihood of a dangerous hemorrhage during delivery. When that happened, she had an emergency hysterectomy. Kane and her son went home healthy.
Complicated, high-risk deliveries in the United States often end tragically. An American woman is three times as likely to die from childbirth as a woman in Canada and six times as likely as a woman in Scandinavia. It’s a story NPR and ProPublica have heard repeatedly in the past year while investigating the startling rate of maternal death in America.
But despite her risk factors, Kane had something going for her that made her delivery less likely to go wrong: She lived – and gave birth – in California. The state is leading the charge to reverse the nationwide trend: Since 2006, California has cut its rate of women dying in childbirth by more than half. And it’s a state whose impact could make a big difference: One in eight infants born in the United States is born there.
About an hour east of Los Angeles, the hospital is one of the state’s largest birthing centers, delivering more than 7,000 babies a year.
Maria Hellen Rodriguez, the medical director of maternal-fetal medicine at the hospital, recently led a training drill for nurses and doctors on how to improve outcomes for women who hemorrhage during or after giving birth. Using a medical mannequin, a team practices a simulated hemorrhage.
“Every single woman is at risk for hemorrhage if they are going to deliver,” Rodriguez explains.
The idea that every woman is at risk is a new thought in the world of obstetrics. Preparing for the worst-case scenario, Rodriguez says, is key to saving mothers.
To Keep Women From Dying In Childbirth, Look To California

God is like a mirror. The mirror never changes, but everybody who looks at it sees something different.

I’m not very religious, but it gave me something to think about.
Instead of shutting him down, they helped him get a permit.
This is how you follow the law while also helping and supporting a community member.
What the fuck, your privilege is showing.
Depressed and skinnier or happy and fat?
So I’ve officially gained too much weight this year.
I’m not going by what the scale says or what doctor science people say I should weigh, I’m saying this because my feet and back hurt all the time, I feel tired and my clothes all feel too tight. I’m just at the point where I feel miserable and uncomfortable.
I think my depression pills aren’t helping with this. I feel better, but apparently happy Sandy is a very hungry Sandy. I am pretty much hungry ALL THE TIME on this medication. I’m even hungry in the morning, I never used to be hungry in the morning. I would be fine with the medicine making me hungry if it also got me motivated to work out or only crave nutritious protein packed meals. But it makes me crave pizza and chicken sandwiches.
So I can be depressed and less fat, or happy and fat. Weird.
I think the first step to getting to a more comfortable weight will be to make better food choices. I’m eating carbs all the time, swapping out carbs for better foods when I have the munchies is a decent start. Small steps. One of those fancy diet plans out there may also help, but I’ll have to be careful and not scare myself away with all the information out there. It can be overwhelming for a beginner.
I’ll start by looking into a couple of the diets out there. I know the general consensus out there is that fad diets are dumb because you gain all your weight back but at this point I don’t think it hurts to look around. If it’s not promoting unhealthy habits and it helps me fit back into my fat pants I might try it out. We’ll see.
Gardening goals. As soon as this heat wave ends we’ll work on the yard. Maybe!

A 2016 poem emerged soon after 17-year-old Antwon Rose was shot and killed by a police officer in East Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, more than two weeks ago.
Titled “I AM NOT WHAT YOU THINK!”, the poem was written by the teen for his 10th grade honors English class. The assignment was to write an “I am” poem about a topic or issue that pushed the students to take stock of the world around them. Rose wrote a poem that captured what it meant to be black in America, three times repeating the phrase, “I am confused and afraid.”
Rose’s words were intoned at his funeral last week, also appearing on the program, and read aloud by peaceful demonstrators at protests over his death.
Rose’s teacher, Laura Arthrell, 61, said she found the poem archived on an electronic grade book. Next to his name was a blue box that showed he submitted his assignment online — it was because he had turned it in late that she had actually been able to find it years later.
“I opened it up, and there it was looking at me,” Arthrell told the PBS NewsHour, adding that there was a well of feelings over the discovery.
“I don’t want to say it’s prophetic, but it is,” she added. “If you knew this kid, he was a really nice kid. It’s such a loss,” she said. He always had a big smile on his face.
On the June 19 deadly encounter with a white officer, Rose was shot three times.
Arthrell alerted the school district’s assistant superintendent of the Rose’s poem and asked to get in touch with his family. After getting the address, Arthrell printed up 10 copies and headed out for the Allegheny County home.
There, she read the poem to Rose’s family, including his mother, Michelle Kenney.
“She cried so hard,” Arthrell recalls of that moment. She remembers the mother saying, “He’s talking to us.”
Arthrell said Rose’s mother wanted everybody to hear the poem. He may have been speaking for himself, Arthrell said, but he was also writing for a lot of the kids that were growing up around him.
