I also don't like that the nurse was reprimanding an 86yr old woman for doing exactly as she was told.

Note that the hospital discharge paperwork said to "follow up with a cardiologist in 2-3 days". She was discharged Thursday night so today (Monday) was the earliest day. Honestly we might switch to the new doctor because he has a better beside manner.

Took my Gramma to the cardiologist after she was on the ER. We got a random doctor. My Gramma liked him because he explained things to her. The nurse for her normal doctor reprimanded us for not making the appointment with that doctor. It was a strange experience.

Digital art of a dark brown unicorn facing left in a white void rendered in a watercolor and pencil style. The unicorn is slender and long legged with an arched neck, and it is wearing a white and silver chain halter. It has white splashy markings up its legs. It has tiny heart shaped braids for a mane, and a long tail with a long braided tuft at the end. It has a long horn and piercing orange eyes. It wears a lilac colored bow at the base of its tail and at the base of the tuft, and its horn and tail tuft are decorated with small light blue flowers. Around her are yellow, blue, and pink scribbled stars.

Oh no! Hopefully you can get yourself a treat. It won't fix the pain, but at least you'll have a treat

I love this image.

Calm down

“Two years ago today, Hamas carried out a horrific war crime, killing more than 1,100 Israelis and kidnapping 250 more. I mourn these lives and pray for the safe return of every hostage still held and for every family whose lives were torn apart by these atrocities. In the aftermath of that day, Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government launched a genocidal war: adeath toll that now far exceeds 67,000; with the Israeli military bombing homes, hospitals, and schools into rubble. Every day in Gaza has become a place where grief itself has run out of language. I mourn these lives and pray for the families that have been shattered. Our government has been complicit through it all. This must end. The occupation and apartheid must end. Peace must be pursued through diplomacy, not war crimes, and our government must act to end these atrocities and hold those responsible to account. These last two years have demonstrated the very worst of humanity. We must answer it by modeling the very best: a relentless pursuit of our higher ideals and an unwavering commitment to universal human rights.”

There are those that are like a CVS receipt trapped in the bottom of the passengers seat got well of an old Honda Civic after a rainstorm, falling apart, useless, and needlessly cruel to the planet running the US into the ground.

Sad today for many reasons but the small one right now is that I got a new phone (current phone decided that connecting to Internet was optional) but the case is not yet here and I'm terrified of using the expensive piece of technology without protection. Also mad that you have to buy case to use it

I know the feeling. I would like to stop existing in everything everywhere all at once but shittier

Seconded! Words have meaning

Don't grow rocks in you!

I like garlic. Love it even. Harvest garlic with my grampa, eat it raw and feel my sinuses open like a bursting dam. But I also love books. Old vanilla, fresh ink, the weird soft smell of the translucent Bible pages. The smell of tape, even yellowed cello-tape. But garlic? Why? Why would you do this
