Doesn't mean I'm "good enough."

Besides, I'm on 3 oral and 3 injectable medications for diabetes, and exercise is one of the best ways to control my blood sugar. But I guess they're okay with my diabetes control the way it is?

Just because I'm on:
- A medication which makes my heart beat stronger,
- 2 meds which prevent clotting,
- one to help prevent fluid buildup in the pericardium,
- and three to control my historically difficult to control cholesterol (I can't take statins)...

I guess they think I'm "good enough" since I'm not reporting shortness of breath.
Duh, if I was experiencing SOB, I'd be in the ER.
BUT--
I struggle to walk a mile. I could walk 3 a year ago.
I can't climb 40 steps without running out of steam. A year ago, I could do 220.

Got a call from my cardiologist office. Looks like my insurance company is trying to deny a pre-authorization for my next heart catheter procedure to place a stent in my left circumflex artery, which was 100% occluded last Fall.

One of my biggest pet peeves in technical support is getting a random message or call from someone I assisted months ago on something and they assume I'll drop what I'm doing and help them again... Without a new ticket... Bypassing the lower tiers of support.

In the 6 games in the NFL playoffs, the 2-4 seeded division winners are 5-1 against the wildcards, and the Buccs lost to the Commanders by a doink.

The only AFC game this weekend that was anything near interesting was the Broncos loss to the Bills... Denver actually made a game of it!

As a Christo-pagan, leaving it up until Imbolc feels right to me!

You know those people who say, "Be still my soul!" Do you think they celebrate the soulstice?

What’s Wrong With Angel Studios and Its ‘Bonhoeffer’ Biopic About The German Pastor? (ANALYSIS) Angel Studios can’t seem to catch a break from controversy. Its first big hit, the film “Sound of Freedom,” was heavily criticized by sex-trafficking survivors for its deceptive portrayal o...

Every ticket sale to see Bonhoeffer (Angel Studios) is a vote in favor of the Christo-fascist takeover of America.

I've rep'd multiple US Capitol Police officers, including those who were injured on #J6. I can understand if pardons/commutations are coming for simple trespassers, but no one convicted of injuring an officer should have their sentence touched.

What happened to GOP being party of law enforcement?

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

We need to begin by recognizing that 'Oppression Olympics' and 'Ideological Purity Tests' weaken everyone on the Left. I hated seeing friends oppose Kamala because she wasn't pro-Palestinian. Well, now Gaza is still f*cked, as is Ukraine, and a lot of other causes we care about.

I mean, Red states should just learn to pull themselves up by the bootstraps.

Had a great time caroling at Johnson County Parks and Rec for their annual tree lighting event.

I'd give my left nut for a good joke about Aphrodite.

I told a joke about Pygmalion, and I really cracked myself up.

@dljohnston.bsky.social 🕯️ I've been attending #tec since October. May I post in #narthex?

Did you hear the joke about Apollo and Artemis? He showed her how to get ahead.

I thought the joke about Prometheus was a real cliffhanger.

Did you hear the story about Calliope and her sisters? It's really amusing.

I had a joke about The Oracle; everyone thought it was so very Pythia.

Hmmm... I'm vintage. Makes sense because it's grape harvest/first crush season.
