Looking for community in these dark days
I’ve always disliked Target and I lived in MN for years. Have never forgiven them for ruining Marshall Fields. Over the years attempted to avoid them. Now, totally done with them.

There is concern this is a set up by bad actors. I’d stay away.

I met him once at a fundraiser. Thought he was thoughtful & smart. Good for him. Hope others follow.

This may sound trite but truly every day is the unknown. Just doesn’t seem that way because mostly for many people bad things don’t happen and every day has a sameness. Now we’re on edge waiting for the proverbial shoe and feeling helpless.

They will tell you that is fraud. That doesn’t matter in this case. You can shut down your accounts and open new ones. Maybe if enough people talk to their banks, the banks will take this seriously as a threat.

Had this same discussion with a clergy friend this morning.

Yes. I pulled it off the shelf a few weeks ago for such a time as this.

The checks for anyone who started collecting prior to 1997 go out tomorrow, 2/3. We’ll see. Also, all SS is done by direct deposit so they have checking account info. I don’t keep a lot of money in my checking account, but still.

“Deaths of child figure skaters” would be better. I told my GOP senator’s voice mail that the GOP had killed children who figure skate.

Called my incompetent Ohio congresspeople calling for immediate investigation. Both Senators mailboxes are full. Hope that is a good sign on many fronts.

True. The Medicaid portals are coming back on line, but glitchy.

Caring for someone with dementia is not fun. I speak from experience.

Don’t forget Medicaid also pays for Assisted Living/Memory Care. As someone who just spent 10 years caring for mom with dementia - it will be a rude awakening when these patients come back home. Memory Care can be $70,000 or more a year. Pay that MAGA!
