Photo of a page with the following Poem: TO AN AGED BEAR Hold hard this infirmity. It defines you. You are old. Now fix yourself in summer, In thickets of ripe berries, And venture toward the ridge Where you were born. Await there The setting sun. Be alive To that old conflagration One more time. Mortality Is your shadow and your shade. Translate yourself to spirit; Be present on your journey. Keep to the trees and waters. Be the singing of the soil. N Scott Momaday

So now it looks like my physical therapy degree is not considered “professional” by this administration?

But a theology degree is?

Hope the theologian comes in handy after your total knee replacement.

relatable.

Screenshot of a page: “which must be true otherwise I'd have to consider myself a fuckup. I write about myself all the time which makes me sort of a narcissistic asshole but also an admittedly ignorant sort so to appear less ignorant do not venture beyond my own parameter”
