If you DM me for any reason, I will block you.
U*raine’s flower. T was invited to visit his friend P*tin and Z said he couldn’t guarantee the safety of any part of R*ssia.

I wish I understood - or that there were English translations.

I misspoke - I agree that loss of smell is a symptom of LC. But if that is all you experience (as does my husband), it is not soul-killing. The PEM, POTS, etc make living life painfully difficult. What we had with CFS far outweighed what he has now thankfully.

I can see why you’d want to avoid being lumped with CFS - it’s gotten zero respect. But LC is going to be a ‘thing’ until they continue fail to find a pharmaceutical solution (there won’t be) and then it will become psychological (in your head). And CFS’ers will be there waiting for the refugees.

The set of symptoms for CFS is long & varied - not everyone has all of them and some of them come and go. Loss of smell is not LC - my husband lost his smell from covid 8mo ago - but it is not the debilitating condition worth a global medical study. It’s not LC. It’s a breeze compared to CFS.

And even though I have rebooted my system from CFS, there are lingering issues with the heart - CFS/LC causes permanent damage to multiple organs.
April 21, 2025 at 9:53 AM
All of those other symptoms also occur in CFS. It’s not simply post-exertional malaise (the fatigue part). It’s POTS, brain fog, hormonal disruption, all of it. When the first cases of LC hit, the CFS community knew exactly how this would all go down. There is no difference between them.

I’m glad to see this. As someone who suffered from (& managed to recover from) chronic fatigue syndrome, I feel confident LC is nothing more than CFS triggered by COVID instead of EB (or any other significant viral load). CFS/LC will never be taken seriously -sadly. It’s a devastating condition.

The login problems I reported seem to be better. You guys are doing great!

I think you have cast too small a net. The enemy is everyone who wants what is happening now, from sycophants to voters to Fox News. Remove musk and the problem remains.

You are hereby appointed to be the Head of the DNC (Department of Natural Consequences). Congratulations.

It will be convicted criminals that folks will have a hard time defending. Think life in prison, sexual predators, mass murderers. Once he gets us calmed down about that and the precedent has been set, anyone is fair game for him, even if he has to manufacture false crimes to arrest them.

Thanks!

Never went to red note - this feels right.
April 2, 2025 at 12:00 AM
<snark> because I’m envious of your cleverness and want to participate in the only way I know how.

They may even announce a cooperative trade deal between our countries.

Tax the churches, corporations, and uber-wealthy and suddenly our schools would be well-funded, our healthcare would be free, and we’d find a solution for homelessness and poverty in America.

Since half the country supports what we would revolt against, it would be both.

They have as much power as Steele does because we didn’t give them any leverage. What the hell do you expect them to do?

We have to go through this, and do only what is realistic. To wage a battle that will fail every time is to invite ridicule and throw away all hope.

I can’t decide if he is just going to bully his way through his expansionist wet dreams or weaken us so that others attack, justifying retaliatory actions, resulting in blowing many things up and taking all the spoils.
February 15, 2025 at 12:32 PM
Same! My BIL once accused me of always needing to be right. I was stumped because I could not figure out why the alternative was something I should want to be instead.

60 years old and that still happens.

This is essentially what we all did before the election - not enough people cared then to prevent this.

Economic strike might work (2/28 from what I hear) but they will just laugh at everything else.
February 10, 2025 at 11:28 PM
Exactly. I’m waiting for someone to tell us what we can actually do to stop this disaster given that we failed to elect the Dems into any positions of power whatsoever.

My concern is that will be his cue to enact martial law and accelerate whatever his end game is.
