This why I vote Democrat.
I am voting for their futures not my dystopian past.

Not all white people in Redstates.
Many of us, young and old are out there.
We just live in gerrymandered states with restrictive voting practices.
We organize.
We protest.
We vote, only to have our votes thrown out.

As a former VA nurse, most of our meds were generic.
Once heparin from China had no heparin but was glucosamine. Many recalls & shortages during my last decade there.

47 years of ICU nursing, the only time the age of a heart was referenced was in post transplant patients.

SaltyBitchables @saltybitchables.bsky.social · 1d

Maybe this is a new thing they do but I can’t recall ever quoting a ‘cardiac age’ to any patient, even on insurance physicals. With tRump he usually finds a way to tip his hand, I think he’s got some serious heart issues with his exactly “14 years younger” cardiac status.

This is one thoughts & prayers that matter to me.
Joe has fought for the working men & women for more than 5 decades.
Whatever occurs, my prayer is he have healthcare providers that are there when he needs them & provide his care with compassion, wisdom & diligence.

As a Texan, I totally agree. Abbott's response to increased gun violence was to gut gun laws,promote no license carry, & insure those convicted of domestic violence were not denied their"2nd Ammendment Rights."
If you're 18, ARs & high velocity ammunition are your BD present.
