The amount of sick kids in the doctor’s office was overwhelming. The amount of coughing in the grocery store made me cringe. Then the line at the pharmacy with empty shelves where the covid/flu tests would be, made me want to bathe in hand sanitizer. 😬 It is really bad. 2/2

Can confirm. 😔 My teen son tested positive today for Flu A (in NY). He had the vaccine in the fall. The doctor said they can easily tell which kids have had the vaccine or not. The ones without it are much sicker. I knew as soon as I saw the high fever we had to go in. He started Tamiflu today. 🤞🏻1/2

Nothing has convinced me that Trump is seriously ill more than his frenzy to have theaters, websites and battleships named after him. (Well, also his ankles and IV bruise.) I'd love to see 60 Minutes report on it, although Bari Weiss would doubtless say, "We need to give equal time to immortality."

Me too! I had the same thought in the kitchen. The whole house is designed for someone who does not do any of the cleaning themselves. All those dust magnets. 😬

I was getting twitchy from the pics. I would pass out from overstimulation if I were in those rooms. 😬 And why are there so many mirrors?? I would be jump scaring at my own reflection walking around there.

People do not use information to determine their social identities; they use their social identities to determine what counts as information. The climate fight is, and has always been, an identity fight. Gonna talk with @samuel-bagg.bsky.social about this soon.
