Jeez, the momentary panic I had after hearing the sirens again for two days in a row until I realized it’s 11 am on Wednesday.

My husband should teach a masterclass on caring for disabled family. He patiently waits for me to put my words together and doesn’t interrupt. He notices when my hands are shaking from the pain before I do. And he just always gives his quiet unassuming support whenever I need it

Proud of myself! Asked for a wheelchair to sit through my mammogram instead of trying to stand through it.
First mammogram and had the results before I got home.. no abnormalities found!

Had to accompany my mother to the ER on Monday. She’s fine but I am worn down. I keep falling asleep and my pain is through the roof. I have 3 appointments between in the next 2 days for her, my son, and me but right now I don’t know how I am going to be able to do them

New Age types: I love you but for all that is good, stop suggesting turmeric to me after I tell you I’m on meds for my autoimmune disease

Kid “Why did you teabag that character?”
Me: “I didn’t teabag him! I crouched near him. Besides I lack the teabag to actually do anything like that. Oh that’s a good debate, if you have no balls can you really teabag?”
Kid: “Omg Mom, no. That’s not a debate”

In a million years, I would never had guess the reason the school is urging family discussions on ….

Not sticking paper clips into the electrical outlets

We’re doomed.

My 14 old son has been across state for a music festival. He got home and curled up in my arms. Kid is taller than me but still lets me snuggle with him. Even told me he missed me too and got me some honey for an early Mother’s Day gift.

Over $300k raised for that poor baby. As it should be. Our babies, all our babies, deserve love and compassion

My teen son and his buddies use “alpha male” as an insult. This is also the same kid who came home after his class on the stock market ranting about the evils of capitalism and wealth hoarding.

The kids are okay but that is due, in part, to teaching and raising them to be part of a community.

Even if one can tell them it‘s for a stockpile, there’s controlled scripts that will absolutely flag you.
“Stockpile RX’s” is really up there with “build your own farm” in terms of useless for most Americans.

I would have to pay cash to the tune $17k for an extra month. Seventeen thousand.
I keep seeing advice to stockpile meds. How?

My pharmacist would flag I am refilling to soon. I could say I lost all my meds, but that only gives an extra month.

Not that I could afford to stockpile on my budget.

She’s right! I wasn’t ovulating when I decided that I would have 1. Oh that’s right, it’s when I was pregnant so LOTS of baby making hormones. Conversely, I chose to come off the bc to have said pregnancy. That’s what reasonable people do when they can decide on pregnancies
Christian influencer Allie Beth Stuckey says the only reason you don't want to have a baby (many babies!) right now is that your evil birth control is taking over your brain. (About that: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...)

Just read a comic featuring a disabled character falling in love with an abled bodied photographer. It’s well loved. 1st volume is the photographer encouraging the disabled character to get expand his world and pursue his dreams of traveling and their relationship.

Fellas, is it gay to give your husband bedtime smooches?
I’m adding this to my tbr list after I feel closer to baseline
… guys, someone just commented this under my witch book 😭

like, yes, that was the intention with the cover of two men close together. it is in fact a love story. i could not be any more clear about the direction of my romance book about true love between two immortal men. the title is their names 😭

I hate prednisone so much! It’s 3:22 in the morning and I can’t sleep. I’m glad it’s just a short round so it shouldn’t be too bad with side effects (hopefully!)

With antibiotics, you are supposed to hold your immune suppressants. But without them, I feel sick and have many the same symptoms.
I’m just in a flux state of it’s infection or my own immune system making me feel so awful

Really suggest, if you aren’t already familiar, reading up the start of food regulations in the US. It was as important then as it is now. Even the wealthy were supportive
i realize the title is a bit counterintuitive but the answer is that you cannot as an individual guarantee your food is safe. we can, as a collective, push back HARD on dismantling food safety regulations, and put pressure on an unpopular administration to keep our food from killing us.

I’ve seen posts that just copy and paste their caption, emojis, and all in alt text that do nothing to actually describe the image. If you are going use it, put in effort. Takes a minute for the bare minimum.
maybe don’t use the alt text on photos as a second caption to your post…it’s an accessibility tool
