How old were you when you started taking enough medications/vitamins to need a 7 day pill sorter?
At what age did you need one further divided into am/pm or 3x a day?

A TikToker in texas made 100 videos about the murders and accused a college prof who was never a suspect, giving the prof PTSD and a solid defamation case. Texan acted as her own attorney!

I paid mine online about 5 days ago after getting an email notice, and I bet they dont cross reference "people who paid before February was over" with "people who will need a nudge if we're gonna get our $35 by mid april" and I get the mail piece anyway.
Perhaps I will bug my council reps about it.
Well, I think I have my answer: my weirdo added me to a 13th list :
"What Do You Think Happens When You Subscribe To A Block List?" moderation list.
And in fact they subscribe to at least 20k accounts, that's the block list that apparently has made me live in their head rent free.
A pharmacy label reading "white-blue speckled butterfly tablet" with a pill on top of it shaped more like a cartoon dog bone than a butterfly.
Whoever wrote this description and chose "butterfly" and not "dog bone" has clearly not seen enough Looney Toons in their childhood.

Pre marriage equality, a gender marker on your ID would prevent you from trying to marry someone you weren't legally allowed to, or prevent you from defrauding a marriage partner by lying about yr gender.
But if anything in yr pants influences how you drive, you probably shouldn't be driving.
?? Not sure what to make of that, but anyone who wants to discuss the queer subtext of the epilogue of Fassbinder's Berlin Alexanderplatz should DM me.

Todd Solondz "Happiness"(saw in a theater 1st run, did not know anything about it).
"On the Beach" both for the despair, and the fact that it's 134 minutes, which is too long for a b&w 1959 sf apocalypse flick.
The Oscar bait one, or the Cronenberg one?
