Most mothers feel this so hard.

It’s a cult.

🤞🏻

I hope there was action taken against the other professor. He Hank you for being human with that student.

I am so happy!

I just subscribed to the @ffxnow.bsky.social Press Club to support local journalism in my area. Are there independent outlets covering where you live? Consider becoming a paid subscriber to support their reporting.

Thanks!

Do you know if any good places to park for a night visit to the Lincoln? Or just Metro in? Partner can’t walk long distances.

Best monument at night?

I hope this isn’t related to health concerns. If so, may this sale give you the money and time to get well!

The link in your post doesn’t provide any more information about Bolling’s comments. Could you repost with the right link, please? Why did Bolling say that?

Now multiply that helping my spouse manage his logins, and recently taking in full management of both my parents’—and make that remote. I’m going to have to travel to get them past the Social Security Administration’s ID verify by login.gov (selfie, photo ID upload).

My parents can’t manage it. I’m going to have to drive 275 miles and take time off work to get them verified.

Something I’m not seeing talked about is private employers dropping retiree group health insurance due to high costs. For 2026, I either add him to my employer group plan, or he shops for Medicare supplement and Part D plans.

And how is Portland?

Voted in my first union contract election this morning, and so glad to get an “I Voted” sticker! 🤞🏻 for a win!

Whoa. Is that how you see the voters? Many people have never heard of RCV, much less understand it.It’s never been used in a general or special election in Fairfax County. Maybe focusing on voter education instead of derision is a better look.

I think the disaster is the more likely scenario. Natural? Maybe. A manufactured emergency or a military conflict also seem plausible. This feels like uncharted territory.

Guy has got some serious game. Gotta respect that.

If so, it will be devastating to our ability and readiness.

Congratulations!!!

I think I just climbed up that ladder with you.

But now we have to get our local Sinclair affiliate to back down.

Pregnant people are always blamed for the outcome. We were “hysterical,” didn’t perform the correct rituals, consumed the wrong thing, didn’t consume the right thing, ad nauseam. Speaking of nausea, being pregnant is HARD, and we still truly know very little about the process of growing a new human.

Very much agree. Early numbers represent the most motivated voters, which tend to be party loyal.

2005 Outback going super strong. Owned it for 21 years. Never my plan to own that long, but it’s just so solid and easy to repair. I’ll drive it forever, probably.

Early voting started yesterday in Fairfax County and across Virginia. Only Virginia and New Jersey elect governors this fall. We also have races for lieutenant governor, attorney general, and the entire 100-member House of Delegates. The state is often an early indicator for the midterms.

This was my personal experience today at CVS in Virginia. Though, there was an order from the Virginia Department of Health dispensing with the prescription requirement.

Thanks to the Virginia Department of Health, I was able to get my COVID-19 booster today without a prescription (I’m under 65). CVS didn’t even ask me about my health conditions!

D.C. Council passes measure to allow covid vaccine without a prescription The council voted to allow pharmacies to administer vaccine shots without prescriptions for residents 65 and older and other adults with risk factors.
