my little brother has started texting me asking for help with things and for advice (just little things) but the fact that he feels like he can turn to me for that has me 🥹😭😭😭

Truly remarkable how many people have told the Pope, in some way or another, to "shut up and dribble." Or corrected him on the Bible, despite their thin education on theology. Or told him to stay out of US affairs, despite him being a US citizen. The hubris is amazing.

IS THIS WHY I LOST MY HEALTHCARE

Crystal says I look like alt Miss Frizzle

My therapist is starting a new type of therapy session for her ADHD clients, I was the first one. I really struggle with staying organized and keeping up systems to keep my space free from clutter. She came to my house and we came up with an actual plan for how to start getting things done.

I got into a heated argument with a doctor who doesn’t even know anatomy today and tried to refuse to give referrals because he wouldn’t listen to concerns. He treated us like we’re stupid the entire time, so now I’m gonna have to go to his supervisor and a patient advocate.

Does anyone else find the Vitacore CAN99s to be very like.. fuzzy (?) inside? It’s like the fibers are coming apart and it’s tickling my nose and mouth and driving me absolutely nuts. This is only the third time I’ve worn this, so it’s not from being old and worn out.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

does anyone a clue how one would go about attaching lights to a respirator 👀 my SIL asked me to help her decorate a mask for a concert and she wants it to light up
