Rewatching Stargate SG-1 and S7E18 still gets me.
I cry every single time.

So- exactly what war is supposedly ravaging Portland? I must have missed something.
Did we actually start a war with Canada and I didn't get the memo?

Tea and toast to start the day on our new lanai.
Distant sounds of waves crashing in.
I can almost forget about all of the boxes waiting to be unpacked

Back on that old thing called t*****r - this may have been one of my most controversial posts

Crunchy peanut butter is peanut butter that didn't have the drive and determination to become creamy... it's like lazy peanut butter

Ideally i'd want a Universe sequel/ followup- but i'm sure that is a harder sell. #stargateuniverse #sg1

There needs to be a new Stargate series - and it should be based on Atlantis - and where the city is now.
Enough time has passed you could have some pretty cool cameos- but s new story overall in new galaxy even- random mentions of crazy flying city antics in the last 15 years

Yeah- that's what we all thought- but sometimes that tiny little piece of optimism that the last 9 months hasn't managed to kill peeks it's little head out to make me hope.
Guess it's back to drinking and chocolate

So- is the extension of the telehealth waivers for Medicare about to be a casualty of the budget wars?
Asking for the patients.
September 30th is around the corner and I'd like to know if I need to reschedule a bunch of patients.

I am actually speechless. This is so low. So juvenile and beneath anyone who holds the office of President. How petty and small do you have to be?

Movers come tomorrow, so we have officially reached the "random bags of stuff" stage of packing.
But the important things have been moved over already🤣

I understand personal choices on deoderant and things- but if you are choosing to fly - in ridiculously close confines with other people- I should not have to be overwhelmed with your body odor (or perfume for that matter). Be considerate.

Requiring the media to sign pledges?
That is not something America is supposed to do.
That is a tool of oppression to hide from the people you serve.

The Pentagon is implementing new guidelines that will require journalists to sign a pledge and agree to report only approved and officially released information.

One of the things getting me through all of the crazy in the world right now is working for and with people I like and respect.
Hanging in Vegas with 1/4 of my doctors

And my flight's delayed- at SFO.
It's always SFO.
So - cheers to extended layovers.

Earlier today, FCC Chair Brendan Carr said “we can do this the easy way or the hard way” about Disney/ABC “taking action on Kimmel.”

Hours later, ABC pulled Kimmel off the air.

It’s a blatant crackdown on free speech by an authoritarian administration. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

The network confirmed it is "indefinitely" pulling the show.

Steering a medical practice is exhausting. More so when the guidelines and rules keep changing (or are only temporary to start with) and you are constantly asked to do more with less.
So grab peaceful moments where you can.

This post from 2017 sums me up pretty well- I'm still this person.
