I was up all night in pain. I called my nurse case manager and as a result I am heading back to the private hospital in Alvor to a. Get more powerful pain killers or b. Be admitted for 3-5 days of IV pain killers. We agree that I can’t go on like this.

Donald Trump is trying to shutter the Department of Education, which will make it very difficult for students to know the last time America was grate.

Elon Musk just said he can't think of a single reason to dislike him. Interesting: I can think of enough that I'm beginning to alphabetize them and catalog them by topic.

When DOGE cuts aviation safety and planes crash, when Medicaid is demolished and your community hospital closes, when trans care is banned through pulling funding, when Musk subverts democracy…

I am so sorry for my friends who work for the federal govt, but shutting down the govt is the only option left for dems in the Senate.

People are wondering why the United States doesn’t demand Benjamin Netanyahu say thank you, or why we’re not shaking down Israel for the money we give them.

The answer is simple: Donald Trump is a Russian asset. Not a Palestinian asset.

Glad to clear that up.

I was awakened suddenly at 3 am by a gout attack in my left foot. The pain is excruciating. I’m on the couch now, in tears, with an ice pack on my elevated foot questioning the viability of my continued existence.

Will things get better or is that just something we tell people to keep them from unaliving themselves?

Why do I even try? Another day, another heartbreaking disappointment. I’ll be in bed the rest of the day.
