Obv hoping you feel much better soon! I'm 3+ years with Long Covid so understand the train of thought. Whatever the viral infection with or post LC, you just have to put into place all the stuff you already know & ease back in gently rather than trying to do everything everywhere all at once. 👌

Just to say it took 3 days of feeling awful before the Covid test turned positive on my recent bout. I had 2 negative tests for both flu and Covid but was positive for Covid on day 4.

This war and desperate needs of the innocent civilians caught in it does not get the same attention but an entire generation of children is similarly suffering a critical ongoing humanitarian crisis.

It's not unimaginable unfortunately. In the same 2 years,10 million children in Sudan are in a war zone, nearly 4m of those are malnourished, 17/19 million have no school to attend, 4m have been displaced, 50% of the population need food/meds/2/water and more than 522,000 children have died.

His request for clarity in this season was if he was in the clear following her confession and she affirms she never told FBI he knew. Then they shag.

Ohh sorry, misread. Leaked photos and story in Paul's 'The Vault' meant Cory was accused of inappropriate workplace relationship after helping drunk Bradley in the hotel. (Ultimately cleared). He covered up for her deleting the J6 footage and had to walk away from her at that point...

Oh bloody hell, just read all the typos in my response - roll on edit button (and perhaps checking before sending). Having said that, I'm up for weirdz being added to the lexicon. #theundesirables

Our prejudices are so internalised and seeded through generations that people often believe they're not prejudiced, until they are.
