Covid-19 pandemic magnifies workforce crisis in veterinary field – CNN

Her work was already grueling before the Covid-19 pandemic. But the pandemic sparked a dramatic increase in pet adoptions, "Covid puppies and kittens," as Vollbracht calls them, as well as a rise in inquiries about pet care, which greatly increased the workload. Also, the mandatory lockdowns forced many people out of work, which meant some owners could no longer afford care for their pets, and in some cases, had to surrender or euthanize them. The effects of the pandemic took a toll on Vollbracht. The vet tech says she "had more anxiety and depression than joy from the job," even after changing clinics. "There were a couple of days where everything was dying," she says. "And it was around Christmastime. It was my first Christmas working emergency and it also happened (during) the pandem...

Steve wouldn’t be pleased to hear about this. Bindi Irwin, the late Steve’s daughter, is making some unsettling allegations against her grandfather, Bob Irwin.

Nina Simones family blames Kamala Harris for taking away singers estate – New York Post

Nina Simone’s granddaughter has accused Vice President Kamala Harris of “taking away” the legendary singer’s estate and handing it over “to white people” — leaving her so poor she is considering “stripping to pay my bills.” “My family doesn’t run her estate anymore. It was taken away from us & given to white people,” RéAnna Simone Kelly tweeted Saturday, with her mother later saying she supported her “1,000 percent” in “speaking the truth of our family.” “Our family name was DRAGGED in the media. We get NO royalties, nothing,” Simone’s 22-year-old granddaughter said of a 2013 legal battle over the estate’s handling when Harris was California’s attorney general. “Wanna hold someone accountable? Ask Kamala Harris why she came for my family,” Simone Kel...
