MAGA Twitter is in shambles this weekend. 🀣🀣🀣

They’re pissed at β€œwoke” Grok for telling them the truth and they’re convinced that the Texas floods were caused by some kind of weather machine.

Hi, I have a tremor in my hands and arms. I am on Gabapentin (300 mg) which did not help much but with added beta blockers has gotten much better. I can now write (kinda) and type which I could not do before. They are testing me for a marker gene which could signal Parkinson but don’t know outcome

Ugg, not going well for Australia. India’s bowlers are smashing us.

Yeah, Boxing Day test match today. My favorite day. And then there is the Sydney to Hobart yacht race. Good times chilling in front of the idiot box.

Serious question. Why can this guy not grow a beard and more importantly, why does he leave those 15 lonely hairs on his chin? Is this a symptom of something?

After being in hospital with a range of symptoms and 6 teams of specialists I am on Parkinson meds for tremor and beta blocker also for tremor. Struggle with gut issues as well.

I have the same issue. With my glasses on I cannot see much beyond 1 meter. Very odd but the neurologist says changes to eyesight is indeed common in Long Covid cases.

It is only a matter of time. Frump will get angry at the attention Elonia is getting and ditch him. They will dissolve the bromance in an ugly tweet war.

Trump is proof the Founding Father's never imagined an electorate stupid enough to elect a pathological criminal.

One of the things I still don’t understand is how these tech bros can be pro-technology and anti science.

Good morning and Happy Monday to everyone who feels safer and more comfortable around our trans brothers and sisters than around hateful MAGA lunatics.

I will admit that every post that pictures the orange Cheeto cockwomble will be ignored by me.

I have Long Covid and after 2 years of treatment and thinking I would get better I am finally coming to grips with what the neurologists are telling me - I may never get better. There is a grieving period which you go through before finally accepting limitations and now I just have to learn to cope.

Hi Janet. You do not need to post both places. Move here and you will surpass 16K in a day or two. Just look at others who have moved and increased followers.

Funny how weak men (and women) think pulling a trigger is a sign of power? I can pull a trigger and I would never say I was strong.
