Tashi, the Insurance Slayer

Ok- if anyone would like to donate towards Leto’s final vet, it would mean a lot.
I can do this; but timing sucks and I still have a specialist doctor next week and my budget is so tight it’s squeaking.
(Vet has been moved up to Friday, tomorrow)

You got it

I hate #Widowhood reason 10006
My cat, who really was my husband’s cat, is dying.
Why isn’t my husband here to help? Why can’t he be here to comfort Leto? Leto doesn’t want me, all he wants right now is his dad.
This sucks this sucks this SUCKS

Local friends this hurts so much to ask but can anyone come by in the next day or so and help me dig a (pet) grave hole in my backyard?

Duke Leto is approaching the end of his reign.

(I’m not ok)

The Shot in the Eye Squad After losing a retina to "less lethal" police munitions during a George Floyd protest, I decided to start a club.

In 2021, we published a series of portraits and interviews with people shot in the eye during the George Floyd protests.

One of them, Soren Stevenson, just won his race for Minneapolis City Council.

I was the worst mom in the whole world and left her for FOUR DAYS!
Obviously I had to remedy that with Broccoli Wed to help bribe #Tzipporah into forgiving me.
Completely my fault for having a birthday in the first place.

Thanks for an incredible birthday weekend, #Tucson ! It was wonderful! Bonus thanks to Linda, Dad, Maggie, Akiva, and Heather for making it a most memorable holiday.

A woman’s left hand flips off two boot casts on a shoe rack by a door. One is a black soft cast and one is a grey hard cast. Her right foot is bandaged but appears to be not bruised or swollen. Normal sandals are on the floor by the foot.

Bye bye, #DasBoot
BACK TO THE CORNER OF THE CLOSET WITH THE OTHER MEDICAL SUPPLIES YOU GO..!
Also the Dr said my friends are allowed to remind me/yell at me to walk slower for the next few months.
TASHI IS FREEEEEEEEEE

Ok it’s over was as fast as could be and I only had a tiny panic attack after it was all done and I left the building.
I got to listen to the audiobook of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow which was nice and I’ll get the report from my Ortho next week!

I have not been this nervous and scared in a while, I would gratefully take any good thoughts or prayers.

(Small favours it’s a non contrast MRI at least)
2/2

My MRI starts in one hour.
I had a call with the radiology imagist yesterday who explained they’ll have to scan my foot a little differently due to my implanted Ti plate and screws. I was also warned I might have to go to a different location/machine if this one is not sensitive enough.
(1/2)

A restraining order was issued YESTERDAY by a federal judge barring detention of journalists in this district unless they refuse to reposition themselves and are given adequate time to do so, or there’s probable cause they’ve committed a crime.

Readying for SCOTIS LGBTQ arguments tomorrow. To be clear, they don’t get to rule on our humanity. They’re ruling on their own. From 2019.

Kate Sosin was right in 2019 and just as relevant and right in 2025 and beyond. @shoeleatherkate.bsky.social

/3 Also note that the indictment claims she rented the property but not that she entered into an agreement that REQUIRED her to rent the property, which seems to be what is prohibited by the paraphrased language.

Good night, sweet dreams to all

Tomorrow can be a wonderful day

Shoutout to Lalibela!! ❤️❤️

The veggie combo at a good Ethiopian place is an unsurpassable dinner

Translation: Mike Johnson wants to keep the government shut down and let health care premiums double for families.

it is genuinely shocking how much rage @jay.bsky.team and the devs seem to have for their user base. suspending Erin Biba over an old post just because she’s been criticizing you is deeply fucked up. fix this shit.

A red fleece blanket covers a pet bed. One tiny chihuahua ear and a spot of white fur are visible; the rest of the dog is happily buried.

My house got down to 71°F and my #chihuahua has disappeared!!! Has anyone seen #Tzipporah ?

Update
20 hours in and a very mild low grade fever
Arm is almost back to normal
Still exhausted and some brain fog this am
Thirsty

Not a harsh vaccination at all, overall

Covid (SpikeVax) and Flu vaccine 💉 ✔️
Napped 4.5 hours
No detectable fever at 8h post injection
Very mild arm soreness, both on same side

Furry Nurses and the Junior Candy Striper were on diligent duty this whole afternoon.

Check back tomorrow; I am EXHAUSTED as my primary side effect.

Dave Matthews has the opportunity to do the funniest thing.

A chihuahua has her nose and eyes buried under at least two cloth rags in the corner of a couch.

One of my favourite #chihuahua things that #Tzipporah does is steal rags/washcloths and then bury only her head under them.
I love my dog.

whoa. Every single one of the Sinclair advert buyers on this list is automotive or automotive related (insurance). That is one aspect of the power in our society held by car companies that I haven't seen studied enough.

Let's be clear: no one should be taking medical advice from the man who told Americans to inject bleach.

To moms worried about the Tylenol they took while pregnant: you deserve better than being RFK Jr's scapegoat.

And to the autism community: you are loved exactly as you are.

to my body
Oh so we’re just doing panic attacks at 9pm now?????
Really?!

I haven’t cried today, maybe related

#widowhood #grief #mourning #shiva #sheloshim

I cannot adequately convey how angry my pulmonologist was at our government and HHS today when I asked for a PRESCRIPTION to get my autumn Covid vaccination.

SHE IS SO PISSED YALL
“THIS ISNT HOW SCIENCE OR HEALTH PREVENTION IS SUPPOSED TO WORK!”
