This first story is my worst nightmare come to life.

Thank.

We’ve had a banner batch of Baltimore Orioles this year.
.

They disappear when the temperatures rise but a cool spring has made for beautiful bursts of backyard color.

Ordering a drink with that name is not my idea of spreading love.

A rare bird sighting at Casa River.
.
.
A gorgeous Scarlet Bunting.

I don’t need to know anything, and certainly not five things.
This makes me very glad I’m old (er) and not actively dating.

Those shock value drink names always seem to be derogatory toward women. So misogynistic.
And I’m with you on the AI hospital. Death might be preferable. Of course, waking up from your state of unconsciousness and seeing one of those “faces” peering down at you might just cause death from shock.

If you hadn’t mentioned the drink name, I wouldn’t have looked at it because the drink looks pretty good actually. So now we need to create our own recipe and name it something more appropriate. 🥴
I love the bird pictures. We have two Cardinals who sing all day around here and sometimes I see them too even though I don’t have a bird feeder out now with all the Bunkie construction. But next year…

Oddly enough diagnosis by AI was more accurate than by by human doctors. Personality-wise – probably no difference.

I worked in a hospital for >20 years. I always figured my job couldn’t be done remotely. I think it will be a while before they make a robot that could do it. Surgery, maybe; but not therapy or nursing.

What happened to cocktail names like, Sex on the Beach? I mean seriously, so annoying. As for those AI doctors or should I say entire hospital, I’m right there with you. It’s the Terminator come to life, imagine waking up from anesthesia and looking straight into that?! Oh hell no! As someone who worked in a medical school, I can tell you every OBGYN says your not suppose to use anything but mild soap down there, let alone bleach.

Long drink names are usually shoryhand for their ingredients… but I’ve got no idea what any of those would be!
I’m 50/50 on the AI medical care… it would be nice to actually get an appt and, in theory, no human doc should lower prices in the US. Then again, there was just a report of multiple AIs defying direct orders to shut off, which concerned even the developers.
The birdies are gorgeous!!

Christianity is a mindset. If you believe in what your preachers are giving you, you will believe anything. Trump is an idiot, but he says he is a Christian, so they believe him. The thing is, THEY WANT YO BELIEVE HE IS WHAT HE SAYS HE IS. It doesn’t matter to them every word that comes 9ut of his mouth is a lie!

I could see an an algorithm managing a diagnosis–it’s just hunting for symptoms. But I could do that myself. Treatment on the other hand? I’d like a doctor who has treated other patients and seen various outcomes personally.
