Many non-profit orgs are a lifeline for our most vulnerable citizens. Our administration’s grant freeze has paralyzed these services, so it’s a great time to support your favorite non-profit with a private donation if you can 😸

No country pays more on healthcare to receive the worst possible results.

A uniquely American tragedy.

Hoping my parents’ hard-earned Social Security, & hence their peaceful Pennsylvania lives, remain intact🤞. But if the worst happens… perhaps they wouldn’t mind the California Sweater Weather when they are forced to move in with me 😹💙

Trump in August: "From the day I take the oath of office, we’ll rapidly drive prices down, and make America affordable again. Prices will come down. You just watch. They’ll come down and they’ll come down fast."

Trump now: “It's hard to bring things down once they're up. You know, it's very hard."

When “cranky” from fasting 😖turns into “Yippie!” because you didn’t even feel the phlebotomy needle🥳. If you or a friend is due for annual bloodwork please let’s take care of each other & nag & get it done while health insurance is still A Thing😸.

While out riding with @redeyedvireo.bsky.social today, I said “It’s kind of cool to see Trudeau stand up to our president-elect. Maybe he can talk sense into him.” Then I posted this totally unrelated clip so.

It’s important more than ever to take care of our bodies & minds. A 50-mile Turkey Day bike ride in the CA ☀️ with @redeyedvireo.bsky.social helped break post-election doldrums & build physical & emotional health 💙

Cycling is expensive. I am grateful for the education I received with much help & sacrifice from my parents - a rare opportunity/outcome within a coal mining family. I often think of them while out frolicking on my bike in the CA ☀️ during my time off work💙 with @redeyedvireo.bsky.social

What I love most about Shingrix, the 2-dose shingles vaccine, is that after the 2nd dose most adults are conferred with higher than 90% lifelong effectiveness🤯🥳.
