Brian Kilmeade endorses euthanizing homeless people: "Involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill them."

Just a reminder for any member of Congress who seems to have forgotten...

Agree to all of those things.

PMI doesn't cover much - generally yard maintenance and the cost to sell it. Banks are not profiting via PMI

Having a $700 car pmt is preventing a lot of people from buying a home. What's more important, a 3 yr old car or a house? Most people don't earn enough to do both.

Banks do not want those homes. Foreclosed homes are a huge expense.

I'm a mortgage underwriter and people are drowning in credit card and ridiculous auto debt. Almost every file I decline has a car payment above $700 when they make less than $100k.

@therickwilson.bsky.social your backyard sounded so serene and peaceful with all the birds in your video today. I had to watch it twice because I was distracted by the lovely sounds.

Oh and fuck musk. #birders #genxbirdwatching #fdt

Call your dept of health to see if they offer it.

CVS. I'm scheduled tomorrow.

💯 but that's where we are at in this modern hellscape of late stage capitalism

My doc requested them as I had no childhood medical records. Insurance paid for it along with normal blood work for my annual physical.

I'm getting the MMR shot tomorrow.

I'm getting my MMR tomorrow. No mumps protection after a titers test.

I have no problem traveling to Mexico or anyplace else if I have to in order to get a life saving vaccine.

I just scheduled an MMR vax appt for tomorrow. I had titer testing and have no mumps protection. You can absolutely get another MMR with no issues if you are concerned. While it's supposed to last for life, it doesn't always.

3/3 with this outbreak appearing to be ready to pop off, I'm getting boosters at age 53.

The vaccine protection isnt lifetime for everyone. Getting a booster doesn't hurt even if you have immunity.

Go get tested or boosted to protect yourself and loved ones.

2/ ?

My Dr ordered titers tests about 2 yrs ago. Titer testing will reveal the efficacy of vaccinations. My mumps was non existent, measles low and rubella (German measles) was ok ish.

I had mumps as a kid and assumed that protected me. Apparently I just don't have that ability.

I live in Texas, and I just scheduled an MMR vaccination for tomorrow.

Short version: grew up in poverty, didn't have a lot of medical visits as a child and no childhood medical records.

Ready Fire Aim is a lousy way to govern.

What's wild is how many people commented on articles about the outbreak with how measles is just a normal childhood disease no biggie. None of them are posting their BS on the article about a child's death. Strangely silent all of a sudden.

Happy Wednesday!

How are you coping with this general fuckery that is our new normal? I've been working on my genealogy research, cross stitching and podcasts.

My mother was on SSI and Medicaid. I'm thankful she passed in December before the cuts and general everything killed her from worry and stress.

Here's the website John Oliver wants everyone to go to so Zuckerberg makes less money! LOL

Which is perfect. The message went out to those who needed to hear it and understand it.

It's not like a song is gonna change his black shriveled up heart anyways

Gorgeous stitching

@bonnie-swan-hair.bsky.social is an absolute hair wizard. If you're in the DFW area and need some hair care, Bonnie is best!

Currently disassociating my way thru the fall of democracy with the 3rd Zoom call of the day at work.

I can't tell if everyone is also disassociating or they have no idea what is happening.

Welcome to the nice side of the internet!

He really is. And once you dive into the subtext and symbolism of that performance, it just gets deeper with every viewing.
