    There are apparently a couple of #directprimarycare or #dpc practices on two of the islands. None listed on Kauai but sometimes these maps and listings aren't up to date so it might be worth calling one listed to see if they have colleagues on your island now.
    DPC is a simpler, more affordable way of making the $$ work in primary care (typically about 1/5 of your old doc's new price)

  3. @brianvastag Global man-made climate-change disasters urgently require immediate remedial response!

    The heat waves, droughts, floodings, hurricanes we're seeing... are not a drill!

    It's a war we started against a superior force, and it's in our hands to stop it & pay tribute to nature, which has been so merciful with & trustful towards us through countless millennia, that we seem to have forgotten to show our gratitude & loving care to preserve it as carefully as it guaranteed our survival.

    Sadly the storm rather petered out here in the #keweenaw Only about 6 inches in the past few days.

  7. RE: mas.to/@brianvastag/1165985792

    This feels like a great idea, and something that other than the cost of the screen (and you could probably even use a lower res version), the power impact would be effectively zero.

  8. Journalism arrives in many forms, and one of them is a 20-year-old blog in the District of Columbia that documents the most local of happenings. 'Prince of Petworth' started in 2006 and its founder and lone employee, Dan Silverman, made it his full-time job in 2009. It's still going.

    People can and have debated whether what he's doing is journalism, but he is documenting the city on a very granular level...I think that counts.

  9. This Messi guy is pretty good.

    Hat trick today against Cincinnati.

  10. United is now charging $50 for a checked bag, also known as one of our society's many disability taxes.

  11. So I can request a wheelchair when I make a reservation but I still have to pay the bag fee...or I guess I can ask the underpaid wheelchair pusher to also push my bag, which kind of feels like a dick move.

  12. Snoring male elephant #seal at Ano Nuevo State Park in #California yesterday. They look so lazy because they swim thousands of miles before hauling out for the winter.

  13. A day with a Hawaiian monk seal is better than a day without. I'll take any dollop of joy I can get these days. Grief is a heavy veil.

  14. The cats at the sanctuary keep mutating into dinosaurs.

  15. Any volunteers to replace the USB-C port on my eReader? I just watched a video on how to do it and....hard pass.

  16. NIH's RECOVER program to find treatments for long covid has frustrated patients and its first three clinical trials have all failed to show efficacy.

  17. Turns out a moka pot with no water does not produce coffee.

  18. I don't really rewatch shows. A few movies, sure. Occasionally an older show I've seen.

    But I did just rewatch the Battlestar Galactica miniseries (how many cautionary tales do we have about the dangers of building thinking robots???).

    Holds up great EXCEPT for one element...yes, the shaky faux handheld camera. It now feels very dated and it gives me some vertigo.

    I'm sure someone is working on an AIed de-shaken version.

  23. Welp today I learned that in July, the black interior of the vehicle I drive gets hotter than the melting point of naproxen capsules.

  24. High school surf competition today. The horn just blew to start a heat.

  25. Pretty comprehensive report on the cesspool problem in #Hawaii. The state has mandated owners remove them but offers no funding. A few communities are trying to build small community sewage treatment systems.

  26. The nice Canon DSLR we had stopped working (grit or corrosion in the SD card reader slot I think) and I miss it sometimes. I'm very much an amateur photographer but a 250mm lens still got me some nice shots.

  27. Scored a stash of ancho from a market but I don't have many ideas for what to do with them beyond throwing a few in some chili.

    Ideas?
