A drone pilot has captured incredible footage of a volcano erupting in Iceland.
Bjorn Steinbekk risked losing his FPV drone as he flew the camera directly over the lava as it continued to shoot and spill from the Fagradalsfjall volcano near Iceland's capital, Reykjavik.

THREAD FOR DICK HOYT
Dick Hoyt died today. He was so nice to me when I started writing about heroes. So here is his story: When Dick and Judy Hoyt’s son was born with cerebral palsy, unable to walk or talk, the doctors told them to just “put him away.”
No, they decided.

Rarely wear my hair out as I have been told many times it’s not professional. But with even the army allowing #letyourhairdown I was inspired today.
Also as an #Afrolatina neurosurgeon, I want to normalize seeing “big curly hair” on professionals for children

I once got a consult for nonsensical speech. She was from the Caribbean and spoke an English creole similar to my own Guyanese creole. Turns out no one could understand her and assumed she had a neurological problem.
This is why representation matters

865,000 women dropped out of the workforce in September when their kids went back to school. Everyone who has ever cared about the gender wage gap should be terrified by this - an economic crisis for women and families.
