Can’t even handle seasonings. Tho garlic powder, savoury, and salt are all safe. Can’t even habe black pepper tho!

Unfortunately new diagnosis, which was a relief to get as it explains the excruciating stomach pain and gastrointestinal symptoms has also revealed that I’m allergic to like… everything.
Pickles and berries are both out right now. Most good food is. I‘m living on rice, potatoes, cottage cheese…

Yes cause the Cass review was a fucking witchhunt and a farce akin to Wakefield’s. This is great news!

Thanks Vicky
It’s been rough and now a new diagnosis too and lots of financial hardship
Hard staying positive but knowing there’s people like you in the world helps.

IT’S WORKING!!!! KEEP SHOWING UP, MAKING YOUR VOICES HEARD!!!

This just in from local university:
Modern American Fiction is no longer run by the Literature Department. It will now be a Political Science credit.

What kind of feces? Was he just walking around with buckets of feces or was this a crime of oppordoody? Where did he get the feces? What's the protocol for the victims?

I want Democrats to propose a work requirements bill for rich tax subsidies. The rich need to pass tests to prove they're working. Being wealthy doesn't count. Dividends from stocks and interest from savings don't count. Rent doesn't count. Gotta prove you're working and not just sitting on beaches.

I can't feel the least sympathy for any of these "I voted for him because of *this policy* which would benefit me, but now I see I was wrong," folks. They were willing to sacrifice others for their own gain. And the only reason they regret it is because they didn't gain.

Health insurance companies were satisfied with a 12% flat annual profit.

Public college was nearly free.

You could raise any size family on a single income including buying a house and a car.

You could afford big vacations every year.

There were bad things though. Women had zero financial power.

Request for Action: Elon Musk is seeking access to Fort Knox’s gold reserves. Congressional oversight is requested to ensure transparency during the audit, with bipartisan participation. Fort Knox gold reserves undergo annual audits.

You've done it well. Love the combination of education and resistance.

US joins Russia to vote against UN resolution condemning Russia’s war against Ukraine | CNN Politics The United States joined Russia to vote against a UN General Assembly resolution condemning Russia’s war against Ukraine Monday in a stunning shift from years of US policy.

For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

This is a nerdily delightful and social justicey inspiring thread.

Having a deathly allergy to squid they are always impossible to swallow for me. 🤣 (tho I know I'm not the expected predator here)
Curious now how many species of squid are actually eaten by humans and how many are toxic/too much trouble etc.

Over on X, Chris Rufo is out with a series of leaked internal chats between trans intelligence analysts at NSA, where they talked about things like coming out, bottom surgery, and their sex lives. So yeah, employees should be afraid of things like that even if they’re not fired.

One of the purposes of DOGE is to give a sheen of respectability to lies about government. A 10 minute conversation with someone who understands Social Security data - or just Cobol - would have debunked this, but the lie is more valuable to their goals than the truth.

I think they are the richest because of not having those things. American is definitely one of the most if not the number one capitalist country in the world. Capitalism doesn't call for any government funded social programming.
However they could change so easily - as we've seen.

At least if Trump leaves NATO it’ll be easier for us to call on our NATO allies to defend against him? 🤷🏻‍♀️
I don’t know, it’s all surreal.

A sign over the wall at confed that reads long term mental healthcare needs to be more accessible!

hey @govnl.bsky.social this is your 220th reminder that long term mental healthcare needs to be more accessible! Sincerely, those of us who fell on the ice several times while demonstrating this morning.

It has a Grok watermark. It's AI from Musk's own AI generator.

Hilarious that you're supporting Musk by using a Grok AI image to bolster this post.
Agree with you on all points, but not on the use of AI.

The “no cost too great to protect Canadian sovereignty” talk makes me damn resentful of those who say it and will not suffer the costs.
It’s great rhetoric, but there are costs too great. The ppl who will suffer them are suffering now.
I’d rather they drop the talk & prove why we’re worth defending.

It feels like nothing will be done about it.
The global unrest and economic consequences of Trump, Musk, Putin and other bad actors has consequences far beyond war and recession. The health consequences of a globe in conflict are huge too. And world peace won’t save the already disabled.

And that’s if I can even do it at all, cause a lot of times even if my brain is cooperating, my body or energy levels aren’t.

It’s all hopeless and tragic and with the state of the world and peoples’ attitudes towards this virus, this massive disabling event is happening on a global scale and…
