Yes <3 And where can I wake up on a boat :) That sounds lovely. Nature is keeping me from being sucked into the doom and gloom vortex right now. Deception Pass is 20 minutes from me, rn and so that helps! The Disover Pass is the best (tho going up in price a lot this year)

An extremely rough day for Edgewater in Chicago. ICE activity near schools. People kidnapped while working in yards, standing on hiring corners. So many rapid responders biking, walking, driving, whistles around necks, trying to protect their neighbors, but up against such well-funded forces.

I re-watched with friends, even better the second time around. www.audubon.org/magazine/get...

Breaking News! MIT became the first university to reject the Trump administration’s compact of demands, after its president Sally Kornbluth said the practices of the school already “meet or exceed many standards outlined” by the federal government.

I am not sure what you are suggesting. I am no fan of JP (and CW politics are not mine) but what CW filmed is relevant generally. Sickness doesn't care about your ideology.

Mold sensitivity, tick-borne illness & heavy metal exposure = a living hell most can't fathom. This captures the brutal reality many endure (me, included). Mainstream medicine still dismisses us. It's time doctors wake up & listen to patients. www.youtube.com/watch?app=de...
It’s time to talk about my health.

I'm grateful that I am stable, functional, and active but any bad mold exposure knocks me down. I have to move in the world carefully, avoiding mold. I often feel crummy and off but just shrug it off.

I've lived this: many similar symptoms. Hotel life for 3 months while teaching, multiple relocations. Tried so many things (some worked, some just drained money). Stable at 70-80%, but always seeking some improvement, esp as I get older.

Your occasional reminder that Russ Vought, who is claiming the right to fire civil servants for whatever reason he sees it, once refused to quit a political appointment position even after Trump had lost.

yes. thank you for posting this. its not ok to discount someone else's pain, and that is partly what got us into this imho.

(and def go ahead and block me y'all i am not here for the follows!)

the thing is we need to actually listen to each other. even if we don't like everything we hear.
