Here for all things migraine, POTS, mushing, & huskies. Everything is awful but I hope my dog makes you smile. Disabled not disposable. #UglyDogs. She/her. Unsolicited advice will get you shot into the sun.

Kieran & I were listening to the Hymn to Aten (Egyptian sun deity) by Erika Mermuse. And then the sun came out.

Sit with us a minute & breathe 💜

If you don't hear from me, it's because I'm recovering from an attack of deadly dog farts. 🤢

What's the scientific basis for why dogs always angle their butts at their human's face when they have the worst swamp rot flatulence?

Would you like to see a husky in snow? Music by Ulf Söderberg & the snow in the wind. #UglyDogs

Side note to the main points, obviously but...

The example in the article of ultra processed manufacturing is that a cheese puff is unrecognizable from its corn meal base. But even whole grain or sourdough bread is unrecognizable from fucking yeast so 🤷‍♀️

We're due to get our heaviest bands of lake effect snow today but at least Kieran got something this morning! #UglyDogs

Thought my weather app was glitching but nope, it's the winter storm that's drunk.

Kieran keeps hoping the snow he smells on the air will be on the ground every time he goes outside. At least the wind chill is in the 20s now. #UglyDogs

All of this is confirming my belief that Republicans never learn from a loss and Democrats never learn from a win
“People are blaming republicans for food prices and flight cancellations and health insurance costs and are furious about gilded ballrooms and Gatsby parties and the president is falling asleep on tv and is the most deeply unpopular president in history, time to cave” is a hell of an argument

JFC. If Dems don't realize this is just a different way to screw poor disabled people + start killing the ACA, they're dumber than I thought.

Fwiw, my current medical expenses avg $6000/month. And that's my maintenance care. A trump FSA would pay for 8 pills of Nurtec. Fuck this shit
"A development that appeared to break the logjam: Republicans proposed that healthcare funding be provided directly to households rather than used to pay for a 1-year extension of ACA subsidies. That involves sending federal money into FSAs instead of insurance companies" www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
Republicans Pitch Alternative to ACA Extension to End Government Shutdown
A proposal by GOP senators to send money directly to consumers’ health accounts rather than to insurance companies showed signs of breaking a stalemate on negotiations.

I just relearned the perils of skimming headlines too quickly. The alert in small print at the top of the homepage was a death announcement but it was above a photo of Cyndi Lauper & my GenX heart nearly stopped.

She's fine. She's at the Rock Hall induction ceremony. But jeez.

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets.
no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

Y'all. We may be getting 6-10" of snow from Sun-Tues!

Naturally, I have to get from the snowbelt to downtown for a Dr appt very early Tues. But I'm not going to borrow stress on that right now. My street full of huskies, berners, pyrs, and sheepdogs will be so damned happy!

Head's up there is a Bluesky ban scam going around. This account just joined 40 mins ago and send me this DM.

DO NOT CLICK THE LINK.

Bluesky would NEVER send a DM like this and make you scared. This would come through email and would have a more professional email than this.

Stay safe!

Y'all have to hear this husky's voice. She's one of those shelter dogs that sounds like she's been kicking back shots of whiskey & smoking a pack of Marlboro reds a day. I love her. #UglyDogs

Tis the time of year for turf wars of horny deer. Last night began with our yearling buck running scared, followed shortly thereafter by a 4 point buck walking briskly through the yard. Then 20 minutes later, the big guy who's run this neighborhood for years strut by and hung out for a bit.

Listen #UglyDogs we have someone in our midst whom has worked hard to sustain Jasper and themselves.

Charlie is at bird boarding so I can skeet without being punished!

Time to update you on my BIG THING that I have been working on.

I work in an old junior high school. We have a lot of green space that doesn't get used much and a fenced in asphalt pad that was going to be a playground...

It will never not be funny to me when Kieran bursts into whatever room I'm in like he's the Kool Aid man & I immediately get a notification on my phone that he hit his step goal for the day. #UglyDogs

It was @goodboyfinley.bsky.social who inspired this Chewy purchase. Kieran would like him to know that his namesake treats are delicious!

This is just for generic Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine dimesylate) manufactured by Sun Pharmaceuticals. If yours is made by Sun, check the lot number.

Brand name Vyvanse has a different manufacturer, and there are generic lisdexamfetamine dimesylate capsules made by other manufacturers.
