Well this is terrifying…..

Polio, measles, small pox, COVID, bird flu all seeing RFK Jr. getting confirmed to lead HHS

CALL YOUR SENATORS AND REP! I know it's hard and awkward. I hate doing it. But we're in the midst of a constitutional crisis and they need to hear from their bosses (that would be we the people)! 5calls.org

The news is so stressful, maybe I’ll try to take my mind off it with my favorite candy — AW FUCK

From author Laura McKowen: 1) It is not your fault. 2) It is your responsibility. 3) It is unfair that this is your thing. 4) This is your thing. 5) This will never stop being your thing until you face it. 6) You cannot do it alone. 7) Only you can do it. 1/2

Standing desk! Also ordered a walking pad.

Husband went to ER for some symptoms he was having. He was there for 3 hours. They did a chest X-ray, EKG, blood work, and IV fluids. He’s fine, everything clear so they send him home. Total bill? $15408. Our healthcare system is broken.

Where my sober moms at? #recovery #sobermom 5.5 years here.

Saw Gutenberg! at the Denver Center on Sunday and let me tell you - way too many dead babies, rats, and feces. 🐀💩 10/10 would see it again.
