Jennifer J. Carroll, not that kind of doctor

Also I've just been "at the gym" for nearly 3 hours because 90+ minutes of my trip here was spent on the phone with a friend while I sat in my car in the parking lot. Typical Thursday shit.

Came all the way back here just to say that this shit is so embarrassing.

Thank you to my boyfriend who just came home and immediately found the thing I had spent all day looking for and also brought me a milkshake.

What You Need to Know About the MOVE Bombing And how Philadelphia became "the city that bombed itself."

Egg prices are soaring again. Here’s why and what to expect Bird flu has killed millions of hens in recent weeks, shrinking the supply of eggs and hiking up prices at grocery stores.

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**

Putin has set up a trap for Trump by repeating his claim that russia is always prepared to negotiate, but cannot negotiate with Zelensky because he's illegitimate. Pu also flatters Trump by referring to the 2020 election as stolen. I hope Trump's advisors hold him off from falling into the trap.

Let's talk about why sunflower seeds. 🌻 are a symbol of Ukrainian culture and identity. But also, there is this lady: "You are occupiers, you are fascists! At least put (🌻)seeds in your pockets so that when you fall and die (in battle) flowers will grow there." www.theguardian.com/world/video/...

I think there's a lot of good things to be said about RedNote, but one ongoing question I have is that if a CCP-controlled app is where 🇺🇸 people are encountering Chinese culture for the first time, what's the available platform for encouraging them to Google "uygjur internment" for the first time?

Sometimes they can be upsetting to be around.

Ha. Also my feelings were really about the results of the test but more about how obvious it was to my frontal loan that my brain stem desperately wanted to be praised for doing well on the test. Like, I felt very much like a pigeon in a Skinner box despite my best efforts at emotional Independence

But if you respond to your neurodivergence-fueled morning paralysis by buying delicious breakfast burritos for yourself everyday, you can FEEL rich.

Also there's a reason why our group got along so smoothly in high school. I'm starting to wonder if I actually know any allistic people.
