Hi from urgent care. I’m here for heart reasons and while my monitor is only making concerning noises occasionally, I am seeing some readings that my initial searching says is impossible?

I have things to do today but so far it’s been really hard not to get sucked down the rabbit hole of learning O Holy Night in the original French and trying to find an English translation that both goes as hard as the original and is singable

I heard there was a Cohen song,
And all the Christians got it wrong,
But you don’t really get the meaning do ya?
‘Cause you see its about getting laid,
It’s sex, and love, and Jewish faith,
But all the gentiles heard was “hallelujah!”

Someone in the ward managed to make last-minute music changes for their kid’s homecoming talk without telling me (the chorister), the organist, or the bishop before we all showed up today and now my watch is giving me a high heart rate warning

Important PSA!
Charcoal is a natural absorbent. Unfortunately it's quite liberal when it comes to WHAT it absorbs, meaning: it absorbs ANYTHING that goes into your stomach and gut.
That includes all the active substances from ANY kind of medication you take (incl. contraceptives, vitamins et al).

Friends, Spooky season is upon us.
Remember... foods dyed black with charcoal can interfere with medications. Don't eat them if you have an Rx

The Department of Homeland Security is reportedly barring states and organizations that receive government funds from helping undocumented immigrants.
This will make it harder for the most vulnerable people to get help in the aftermath of disasters.
It was always about cruelty.

I need to put more jazz and classical back into my classroom playlist. I just spotted one of my 7th graders jamming when Take 5 came on.

So you hear a lot of "we're losing states b/c everyone moves to blue cities!" and not a lot of "why do people with options run to the most expensive places in the US instead of staying near home and families?" and this is one example of why.
I’m just thinking about pew finding that
77% of LGBTQ in urban areas described where they lived as accepting
Vs
45% of LGBTQ in rural areas describing where they lived as accepting

I’m going on a cruise in Alaska with my family this month and I’m excited for a lot of reasons, but this morning I’m just sitting with the realization that my first time in Canada will only be a few hours long (we leave from Vancouver)

My ward does that thing where the youth take over primary so the primary folk can go to relief society and I hate it! We have two sacrament meetings to sing in and you’re really going to send me away from my only kids?

personally i think if you have to assure people that the very much alive activist bigot who owns the property you're adapting won't be allowed to insert her bigotry into the adaptation it's a sign that you shouldn't be adapting it but i suppose that's why i'm not being paid to destroy the hbo brand

Happy Hitler Shoots Himself In The Head day to all who celebrate. The 80th anniversary. May his ignominious end, with his body doused in petrol and burned by his last remaining loyalists, be a model for all tyrants.
