It’s not Tylenol that has tipped me over the edge, it’s just that demonizing TYLENOL, the one fever and pain reliever that pregnant people and those who are sensitive to NSAIDS can safely take…why is there such an effort to hurt people by actively taking away comfort measures and medications?

That this meeting is taking place in Alaska has been one of the exclamation points on this weird summit. Aside from Zelenskyy not being present for “negotiations” focused on, you know, his country and all. KKKaroline’s reckoning is near, and I can’t wait until she’s forgotten by history.

A deadly shooting at the CDC shook its scientists. Now they want answers from RFK Jr. CDC Director Susan Monarez convened an online all-hands meeting of the agency division that focuses on vaccines, and employees called out Kennedy’s rhetoric specifically.

Exclusive: CDC Director Susan Monarez met with its vaccine-focused center to talk about yesterday’s shooting. I listened to a recording. Scientists and officials are shaken & pointing fingers at RFK Jr. Many said his vilification and misinfo turned them into targets. www.msnbc.com/opinion/anal...

Force remote employees into an office space that doesn’t accommodate them, find that you have to email this out after deploying 4 custodians to the restroom (aka FAFO aka stuffing 10lbs of sausage into a 5lb casing aka WHAT DID YOU THINK WOULD HAPPEN)

Munsters theme song:
My dog is a jerk
When she peepees she twerks
She has to go all the time
And she thinks it’s just fine
She’s a jerk
I took her out at 9
It all went fine
She went again at 2
And she finally pooed
She peed again at 8
I thought it all was great
But then again at 11?
She’s a jerk.

What does that look like? How do you determine that a cow’s raw milk won’t have harmful bacteria or actual shit in it by petting it and gazing into the farmer’s eyes?
Can just one thing that makes sense happen this week?

A classic. Beautiful artwork, and of course, the song.

I love you and I don’t want you to die. I will fight those who would try to hurt you.

Just checking the temp. I won’t engage with x again, I’m concerned that met@ is collecting our personal info even harder, but there’s no engagement here. Which is unfortunate bc I’d like to hear what people who don’t trust other platforms have to say.

Seriously. It was right there for everyone to see.

I’ve reached the age where “eh, it’s fine” no longer apples to anything happening physically, emotionally, extraneously, or even metaphorically.

I came here for facts, which have become overwhelming. I want to stay informed, but my brain, my heart, my spirit cannot take on everything. I also came here for friendly faces and affirming posts. So I’m going to offer one of those. This is my pup amongst the daffodils. Her name is Junie.

Thank you for using your platform to speak out. Please don’t stop.

And while I’m screaming into the void that no one will ever read or react to, how long do I have to pretend with certain friends and family members who voted against the rights and interests of people I truly value and love? When can I just say fuck off?
Fuck I’m just exhausted. 4/4

Why are the magas still behaving like they lost and are angry about it? They got what they wanted. Why are they still trying so hard to “own the libs”? Like…I don’t get the vitriol and hatred for people and situations and communities they don’t even know. Why such delight in the pain of others? 3/?

I was told to MYOB and do not dare make a comment like that again. When I pointed out the silliness of the French Olympics opening drama, I was ostracized without any rationale. When I spoke about Project 2025 and how it could hurt everyone, I was told that we shouldn’t talk about politics. 2/?

Things That Are Odd To Me:
When Biden won, and for the entirety of his term, I celebrated the advancements that were made to help the most deserving and the most vulnerable among us. I thought it wasn’t enough. When people spoke against LGBTQA+ flags, I asked, how does this hurt you? 1/?

Messages received by a relative, but you need to say who you are. Cause you are giving off some ish.

Please know that my FIL is intelligent, kind, and like, a Romney Republican. A good grandpa to 5 granddaughters. Only 2 of them mine because oh hell no.
The main point being that if my elderly relative can see through the chaos and bullshit, maybe more like him can be reached.

My 88-yo, lifelong Republican, 3x trump voting FIL is horrified by what is going on. He may be paying closer attention bc his son is a federal worker, but whatever it is that made him sit up and pay attention, doubt the bs spewed by faux news, and seek facts…I hope it becomes a trend. 1/2

How much can I say here, how safe do people feel about this space?

I’m so not ok with this.

Disgraceful.

Cool, cool. This could be what breaks me.

Saying you are in favor of what is going on because you hate “wasteful spending in government” is literally asking the leopard to eat your face.
Don’t agree? Say so, let’s discuss.

Trying to camouflage your racism, homophobia, ableism, xenophobia, or sexism behind “Rooting out wasteful government spending” is cowardly. Because these EOs and actions are being used as a front to gut our government and democracy.
So say the words out loud to your friends and family.
I’ll wait.

If you oppose DEI, you should own it and say the whole phrase “I’m against Diversity Equity and Inclusion” and not hide behind the acronym.
Say it out loud, tell everyone exactly what it is that you are against.
Bonus points if you can correctly define diversity, equity or inclusion.
I’ll wait.

As the spouse of an Orchard Park native, I’m holding the bucket. The SOs of Bills fans should get a lot of love, cause this ain’t for the faint of heart.
