An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government. DOGE is not a real government agency. DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions. DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law. DOGE’s conduct cannot be allowed to stand.

I always feel like death for a day or two after a booster. This time I'm trying tips from @rahaeli.bsky.social with front loading cetirizine. Due to CKD, I can only take 10mg at a time and it functions like I've taken 20mg. Will it be enough? Probably not, but let's find out.
