That's lucky. You are OK now? Or just learning to manage with the change in cognition?

It's somewhat infuriating to sense one's mind losing capacity, and ask about it, when the doctor doesn't know what you were like before it began to happen.

Monday I finished up the grocery shopping. Today I made a clementine cake. Tomorrow I beautify. Thursday we gather and cook together. I love this holiday, and its memories. Today I'm thinking about Thanksgiving in East Aurora, NY, in the 1970s, with my aunt and her family. Clay pigeon shooting LOL.

" Networks where poor participants could see many rich participants generated higher redistribution via taxes but also increased polarization and dissatisfaction. "

No wonder the rich people are hiding from us.

NYC and LA are the cultural light under which privilege and wealth are viewed. So yes, I agree, many many many perceptions are distorted by social relationships, including the phenomena where people who don't live in iconic places wish they could afford to.

How does the list work? If there is a checkmark does that mean it's purchased already?

A close-up of a barred spiral galaxy. Two spiral arms reach horizontally away from the core in the center, merging into a broad network of gas and dust that fills the view. This material glows bright orange along the path of the arms and is darker red across the rest of the galaxy. Through many gaps in the dust, which appear black, countless tiny stars can be seen.
