One of the best part of living in a seaside town, is hearing fog horns on foggy days. 🌫️

This little girl is so freaking CUTE

Whenever I’m playing games and get frustrated, saying β€œdamn it” or β€œgosh dang it,” β€œsonofabitch,” etc. My puppy dog will come over with a stuffed animal to try and make me feel better

If you want to know how far medical science has come for women, I stumped multiple nurses and a doctor asking how blood thinners would impact my period.

I saw someone knitting both socks (also can do for sleeves) at the same time on really long needles, I wonder if that's the best trick for matching tension. Haven't tried it yet but I'm excited to!

If I don't live a day longer, I'll have had more than my fair share. The only thing I ask is that if I end up brain-dead in a hospital somewhere, just pull the plug, please. But I doubt it'll get to that. Knowing me, I'll go out in some stupid way. I'll trip on the doorstep and break my neck. Or I'll choke on a throat lozenge. Or a bird will shit on me and give me some weird virus from another planet. Look what happened with the quad bike: I'd been taking lethal combinations of booze and drugs for decades but it was riding over a pothole in my back garden at two miles an hour that nearly killed me.

Don't get me wrong: I don't worry about that kind of heavy-duty stuff on a daily basis. I've come to believe that everything in life is worked out in advance. So whenever bad shit happens, there ain't nothing you can do about it. You've just gotta ride it out. And eventually death will come, like it comes to everyone.

I've said to Sharon: 'Don't cremate me, whatever you do? I want to be put in the ground, in a nice garden somewhere, with a tree planted over my head. A crabapple tree, preferably, so the kids can make wine out of me and get pissed out of their heads.

As for what they'll put on my headstone, I ain't under any illusions.

If I close my eyes, I can already see it:

Ozzy Osbourne, born 1948.
Died, whenever.
He bit the head off a bat.

I'm a climate scientist. I'm considering quitting my job to go....I dunno...plant trees or something? No one listens to us. No one cares. There's got to be something I can do that's more helpful than screaming into the void

i think people are missing the forest for the trees with this one. RFK Jr wants complete centralized knowledge of every American's health in order to exact control on what medications are allowed and in order to fabricate "evidence" for each and all of his nonsense theories.
