Saw this article on the other platform and wanted to share. "How long does COVID-19 linger in your body?" Published: May 20, 2022 Some patients hold COVID-19 viral remnants for months after symptoms end. One study found the virus in the appendix and breast tissues 175 and 462 days post-infection.

It’s vascular and airborne. It became mild and handwashy.

I ordered some glass crystal knobs for cabinets in my home to add a bit if bling. $12 for 10. Loved them so much I bought another box to replace the remaining knobs on my home& bought 2 boxes for a friend as a housewarming gift. Knobs are like jewelery for your cabinets. Hope she likes them.

Hopefully a #librarian on here can help me. Back in the 1930s my great grandfather had his poems printed in book for by a vanity press. Don’t know the name of the press or title of his book; however, his nom de plume was B. C. Dranim.

Protip: To cut down the time it takes to caramelize onions, to facilitate the “sweating” stage, pop the slice or diced onion in the microwave with a tablespoon of water and cook for 3 min on high, then add to your hot pan with oil. YMMV.

88 days until my surgery & start a special diet 2 wks before, so I have 148 more lunches/dinners to enjoy until my “social season” ends earlier than normal. I’m enjoying whatever I want & I’m making a peanut butter pie for Mem Day lunch on the balcony w/friends & I’m day dreaming about this pie.

@tallulahbunkbed.bsky.social Hey you!!I have another box of yarn for you (new), and I have a gently used afghan I want to send you to frog and use for your kitty endeavor.I can tell you more about the afghan if you’re interested (and it should frog very easily). HMU!

Mixed up some jerk seasoning & mango chutney in ground turkey to become jerked turkey meatballs, then I realized it is Tuesday, so maybe I’ll use it as filling for tacos.

Spring must finally be here, as the mud daubers have finally emerged.

YOU: please act normal you need these people to like you Me: ok! People: hi Me: Oh yes retirement is splendid. I spend my days researching burial records & have a side quest of ensuring the maiden names of married dead women do not get lost to history to ensure their legacy. **crickets**

Hard truth intended to help: Many of the illnesses are tied together and it’s in the air, in people’s exhalations. Mask up anywhere you can get or spread it. #COVID

Finally got a surgery date for my bypass revision, repair of 2 hernias & clean up the current state of my “junk drawer” (what I told my gastro I call my abdomen). Considering that I will be on liquids & soft food during recovery, I’m thinking about getting a Ninja Creami…

And in other news, look at how much more money I’d have to spend on a $6 item to get “free” shipping. I am sure it is a glitch but damn!!

Tired of my husband’s routine of tossing out birdseed, only for it to make a moderate mess & the seed ending up in my potted garden on the balcony, I bought him a lovely birdfeeder with about a 2-3 lb capacity. They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions…

Day 2 after a cluneal nerve block—dare I hope this will be life changing?

At this point, I’m eating what I want, buying what I want, seeing what I want and posting what I want. It’s the end of days. Do what you want. Just don’t hurt anyone.

Hey friends, for anyone interested, I’ll be doing a TedEx talk in DC this Saturday, 4/25, about (you guessed it) the importance of the rule of law. Below is a link for tickets for anyone who would like to attend. www.tedxfoggybottom.org

What's the best compliment you've ever received? After taking 1 bite of food I made for her, my m-i-l from so. India informed me she had zero to teach me. After my dad died in ‘08 I was told that he looked forward to meals at my home as he never knew what I’d make but always loved everything🥰❤️🥰

California makes this list many times. Surprised to not see NYC area or North Jersey on the list. However we failed here in Philly. Most Polluted Places to Live | State of the Air | American Lung Association www.lung.org/research/sot...

I could watch this on an endless loop all day.

Canada: "Hospitalization rates for illnesses like COVID, flu have doubled since pre-pandemic, report finds" “People assume that COVID-19 is done … but what our data is showing is that it’s still having a big impact on our hospitals” Source: archive.md/jmZg5

Today we replaced the 1st hepa uv air filter we bought in 2020–the one I dutifully kept at my desk, turned on 24/7 until I retired in July 2020. We have others in the house, but finally replaced this one which served me so well. I highly recommend everyone gets one. 🦠🦠🦠

Everything has an end, but a sausage has two.

As is my annual tradition, I listen to my mom’s last voicemail to me, informing me #covid19 was detected at her nursing home. Her birthday was 3/1, and death day 5/4. But 4/9 hits me different than either of the other 2 dates. 🦠🦠🦠

Protip: For those who miss Blockbuster, go visit your local thrift stores to scope out their dvd selections. Oftentimes they charge about $2 per dvd (ymmv), and if you decide after watching the movie you don’t want to keep it, you can donate it back to the thrift store.

Schrödinger’s President is both dead and alive until someone near Walter Reed rolls up in there and asks a receptionist.

DAMN IT *screams in half a decade of warnings* "Experts warned that the virus could spread more easily than previous variants and even evade immunity in people previously infected or vaccinated against COVID, due to a mutation that allows it to avoid antibodies." 😷✌🏻 www.kare11.com/article/news...

Trying to fight through “feeling some kind of way” after a challenging week & dreary-ish weather. Going to drive to Jersey to drop off my cousin’s Easter basket.

😭😭😭

Post something random or you will have an awful April.

My aunt, the doctor, told me a new joke. She asked: Did you hear that the CDC is pausing testing for rabies, smallpox, and monkeypox? And when I asked for the punchline she just replied: No, this is real it’s not an April Fool’s joke. And then neither of us laughed.

This is the latest BMJ report from 2026! Covid is vascular, it’s not mild. www.bmj.com/content/392/...

I’ve been thinking a lot about the Radium Girls who worked at US Radium from 1917-1826 in particular. My family is from that area & I cannot help but wonder if any relatives worked there. What they endured was gruesome & tragic, with the tragedy being compounded by the fact that there isn’t…

My aunt, the doctor, told me a new joke. She asked: Why do they call the BA.3.2. Covid variant “Cicada”? I said I did not know. So she replied: Because being in this pandemic’s 7th year makes you want to go outside and scream. And then, neither of us laughed.

I keep hearing it said that the spread of AI is causing many to feel that they can no longer trust other people, and that may be, but I must confess what caused me to feel that I could no longer trust other people was seeing them act like this pandemic is over.

Finished this today! #crochet #yarn 🧶🧶🧶

So apparently Coca Cola is part of the surveillance state. As reported by Fortune, their “freestyle” machines have little cameras which are “embedded with future capability for motion sense and facial recognition.” Add one more corporation to boycott.
