they've all started flying now. They're still around: I saw all the chicks in the nest this morning before they flew off while I was cleaning their poop away. Not sure when they'll migrate away again: I think they left last time because their chicks had all died.

they're flying! I just walked out to see them taking off. one's still in the nest though--playing it cautious, I guess

Hey, law-stodon & therapsids, I have a question I may need a lawyer to answer, but I don't know what kind or how to find them. I am okay with paying money for the answer, if only I could figure out whom to offer it to.

The question is this: I am a therapist (LMHC) in Massachusetts. My nice malpractice insurance company offers a package deal where they throw in general liability coverage too. This was a splendid idea when I had a physical office and was exposed to the risk of - canonical example - somebody slipping and falling on the front step and suing me over it. But now I am wholly practicing by telehealth. I don't have a front step to slip and fall on. Do I even *have* any general liability to cover any more??? (The GL policy doesn't cover Bad Internet Things like data compromise - they have a different add-on policy for "Cyber" coverage.)

The GL coverage triples my bill, so I'd rather not.

Super cool article from @arstechnica! Among scientific advancements, artificial womb development is among the just exciting to me, particularly when the apparatus is amenable to instrumentation and measurement of the developing embryo.

uh, yeah... "cool"

for pride I asked a bunch of friends what being queer means to them… 

…so far no one has given me a straight answer :BlobCat_Paw:

They grow up so fast! All four are still looking healthy: eyes opened and alert. And they're so big! Can't wait to see these babies fly

of the smaller prime numbers, somehow I don't often think of 29. perfectly good prime, but if I'm recounting primes from memory, I could easily still right past it if I'm not attentive.

@clayrivers
I'm somewhat confused: your article briefly mentioned some neo-nazis, gestures towards the broader institutional threats to various groups, then recounts how caring and effective your mother's treatment is. that doesn't sound worse than what I thought about Florida. the former is well known, while the latter just demonstrates that there are good folks in the state too.

Sometimes I think Strang tries to be funny, but he just ends up being confusing.

@at it's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it
