And yes, it has been scientifically proven.

Good thoughts for an 80+ woman who fell and hit her head today. 😔Now she has a small brain bleed. She's being monitored in hospital. Awake, but not alert. I don't have further details.

Cassidy: "If she goes and gets 2 types of shampoo & one is a dollar cheaper, she'll get the cheaper one & the other lowers their price. Once you give her the power of making the decision, she's gonna shop -- that begins to save her money and squeezes waste out of the healthcare system."

Remember the 800 times I’ve said you cannot contain the “let er rip” attitude to just covid? Humans don’t think like that. This was always an obvious consequence, and it’s their own damn fault.

NEW investigation from me!
Did some organizations that got Ontario government grants for job training go on to raise salaries for people at the top?
Exec pay rises for Skills Development Fund recipients, including one tied to ‘adult entertainment club’

Yesterday me & M cleaned up the yard and put stuff in the shed. I realized that we had a bunch of stuff that needed to go to the dump directly because we have the $mall bin for regular pick up. So we did that today. I'm tired but we need to eat & I need to bring mom more Bailey's.

I'm really sorry. I realize now that I should not have chosen to be born into a family with a history of skin cancer and a high risk for psoriatic arthritis. I'm sorry that I didn't make healthier choices before I existed. I'll do better next time.
Markwayne Mullin: "Reward people for being healthy. Think about this. Healthcare is the only industry that you're not rewarded for taking care of your responsibility. If you think about homeowners insurance, if you're within 500 feet of a fire hydrant, your insurance goes down."

Side note: It's hard to express how big a deal this is, especially for me personally. I hope this is the first of many dominoes.

Women win two governorships earlier this month. Female voters bolster said candidates. Sexual assault survivors force the president and the speaker of the House to tap out to uncover the truth about the most notorious pedophile. Women's anger can be a powerful tool.

IN FACT one of my consistent notes early on in SGU was "every bullet you fire is one you don't have for later," because the conceit of the show was they were entirely cut off from supply restock. Likewise, fewer people died over the series run because of me, but a lot more got survivably injured.
in my head I was crediting you with "all the redshirts got killed off in episode 1" and ammo counting.
