I have crazy respect for nurses ♥️. Broken down, nursing is a majority female profession…now we limit this group access to levels of education…
I heard teachers will be included in this list, too. Misogynist agenda. What BS.

I was a front line nurse during Covid.
Wearing trash bags, wet masks, NO adequate PPE to protect me.
I worked a 60 day stretch over the holidays because staff were sick or had died.
I pronounced more people dead than I can count.
Donald Trump didn't give a damn if we lived or died.
Now THIS?

So, yes, ICE/CPB have descended upon Charlotte. One possible danger I'll be watching about for: North Carolina allows open-carry of guns without a permit, with no limits on weapon caliber size or magazine capacity. Pray for peace.

Pastors arrested and shot with chemical weapons by secret police every single week.
Take a good, long look.
Let it sink in.

What everyone should understand is that Donald Trump could just pay SNAP benefits so people don't go hungry.
He's choosing not to. He is choosing to appeal to SCOTUS. He is choosing cruelty.

Was told today that everyone is fatigued by me. That’s incredibly painful to hear and certainly confirms the fact that I am unloved and unlovable.

So immature…Graham says at the end of the clip that he won’t speak to Mark Kelly while the government is shut down. So, it’s not the Democrats! It’s the immature men in charge. I’m taking my toys and going home.

This, from @sophiegilbert.bsky.social, is a great review of a show I was surprised to like as much as I do. She points out the main thing, though, which is Tom Pelphrey, who is dropping, truly, an all-timer TV performance every Sunday. www.theatlantic.com/culture/arch...

I think it says quite a bit about the education system that when test scores go up, it tends to benefit adults more than students.
Way more.
Way more.

I’ve seen my therapist and I’m a little less angry at some things, but just as angry about some others. Now, for the weekend!

Now we should make a "Tylenol Party"

Let's be clear: no one should be taking medical advice from the man who told Americans to inject bleach.
To moms worried about the Tylenol they took while pregnant: you deserve better than being RFK Jr's scapegoat.
And to the autism community: you are loved exactly as you are.

In this video it is stated that the intent of this Autism announcement is "to stop the Autism Fever". (9:30-10:38)
What does this mean? Autism fever is a medical term used to describe those with ASD whose behavioral/cognitive difficulties improve during a fever.

Autism is so personal to my family and this announcement is just dumb.
Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.
Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.
Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.
Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.
