A Dialysis Day with Dave

Image
Just wanted to run you through an average dialysis day for me and so many others. ----------------------------------------- The alarm shrieks, cutting through the dawn quiet at 7:30 AM, sharp and insistent.

For instance, in early 2025, Meta reported that 97.4% of content removed for hate speech on Instagram was handled by AI, though this dropped slightly for bullying and harassment on Facebook. The company has also moved toward automat...

Hello again

 It has been nearly 12 years since I last made an entry in this blog. Life interferes and God directs again that I start this over.  This blog will be used to present homilies of a sort on things that I believe God is speaking to you me about and that I need to let the world know what's going on.  I hope that this will be a place of learning and study for us all.  We started anew tomorrow
