I’ve heard it said
that 2022 was the year
of “the Covid Olympics,”
but considering
that so many athletes
are masking up and
taking precautions
at this year’s games,
it seems quite clear
that so long
as this virus is with us
every Olympics
will be a Covid Olympics.

He'll always be my favorite president. 😭😭😭
This made me ugly cry 😭
I will never claim that he was perfect…every president in my lifetime has pissed me off for one reason or another.
But…dammit, I’m so tired of the constant feeling of uneasiness and uncertainty 😔

that change can be difficult,

will require you

A second ICE "agent" has been arrested for child sex trafficking and if you are surprised by this, I really don't know what to say to you. They are the worst of the worst. No decent person would take that job. Every journalist and congressperson should be asking trump and ICE/CBP/DHS about this.

Another case of WWM. (White Woman Missing.) If this was a poor single mom or a WOC, we wouldn't be hearing a word about it and no urgency or special resources would be deployed to finding her. Never forget that. Some animals are more equal than others.
I can’t help comparing the massive effort to find Nancy Guthrie and her kidnapper to the total lack of interest shown by various authorities when Native and Black women and girls disappear and are murdered.

They are not deporting millions, they're putting the thousands they kidnap into concentrations camps. And I thought MAGAs were lined up to take those jobs, so why would the numbers suck? There should be no net change, right? Only the unemployment number should drop.
Peter Navarro: "The jobs report comes out tomorrow. We have to revise our expectations down significantly for what a monthly job number should look like ... Wall Street has to adjust for the fact that we're deporting millions of illegals out of the job market."

Another excellent reason to always wear a respirator. If you've cared for parents you know you want to do everything and anything not to develop that condition. In the later years of the disease you have zero quality of life and go broke paying for care. It's awful for your family, too. 😷🧠😷

Again, we've known this for years, so replication confirms. Also, for every American diagnosed with long COVID, there are nine more who are undiagnosed due to doctors' ignorance about long COVID looking for alternate explanations before sending you off to a psychiatrist who also cannot help you.
