Here's a trick I just used. If you're undecided about a choice you have to make in your script, write an email framing the question - for your showrunner, producers, co-writer or friend. I usually realize I'm subtly advocating for an option. Then I have the answer, don't need to send the email.

Got the flu 2 days before I was scheduled to get my flu and Covid shot, but the rest of my family got the shot. I had a temperature of 103.5, and am still, one month later, trying to recover. Those who got the shot have high temperatures of 100, and are faring much better. Get the shot.
Get your fucking flu shot!!!!!!!!!!!

This is lovely. But also, I’m so glad my kid is into smaller indie artists in intimate, local venues.
In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

There is no thaw without the freeze.
The ferryman will have his fees,
So light your lamps and keep them bright
Against the cold and longest night.

For this we know: the fire burns.
The winter dies. The sun returns.
And all if we stand, and if we fight,
We can survive the longest night.

The wheel turns; the summer ends.
The light departs, the cold descends,
And we are left to hold the light
Against the cold and longest night.

The wind that howls around the door,
The tracks of snow upon the floor.
Reach for your loves and hold them tight
Against the cold and longest night.

To all the young people in New York and across our country who count on gender-affirming care:

I won't let this administration come for you, your doctors, or your lifesaving health care. 

Your health care is still legal and protected. 

I'll always fight for you.

This illegal proposal is designed to eliminate health care for trans youth by threatening to destroy hospitals that provide that care — care that’s validated by physicians & provided with parent support.

They want to erase trans people from existence. That’s always been the plan. We won’t let them.

They say they’re protecting kids. They’re not. They’re harming these kids by blocking their access to health care.

These comments make clear what this is about: Eliminating *all* trans people of all ages.

If they get away with it with trans people, they’re coming for you next.

@mikethompson.house.gov I'm sure you aren't going to vote for this, right?

(If you do, I'm going to make sure everyone in Davis knows about it. But I'm confident you won't.)
Tomorrow, the House of Representatives will vote on a bill that bans gender-affirming medical care for any transgender person under 18, and threatens any medical professional providing this care to youth with 10 years in prison.

Tell Congress to protect trans youth and vote NO.
Protect Trans Care Now
As wave after wave of extreme measures to criminalize and strip trans people of rights and safety continue, tell Congress to act.

After 3 weeks of being sick with the flu, I ran in for my flu and covid shots as soon as I was eligible, today. The nurses were entertained when I walked in pumping my arms chanting “Shots! Shots! Shots!”

It appears that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has, within the past week, scrubbed a large amount of climate change content from its official website, as well as *removed human-caused warming* from the discussion on its "causes of climate change" page.

It's with heavy hearts that we share that Claude, our beloved albino alligator, has passed away at the age of 30. Claude brought joy to millions of people at the Academy and across the world during his 17 year tenure. We will miss him dearly. 🤍

I appreciate the example Peanuts set for us, set the bar low and cook what you can. It’s not about the turkey. (Pie, maybe.)
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Hope you all get to enjoy a nice dinner of popcorn, jelly beans, pretzels, and toast.

This is my yearly PSA that, no matter how old you are, you should have a basic health directive and will. The forms are free online in California. The number of senior citizens in my neighborhood with no directives and no plan who are already a little off the rails is staggering. A short rant 1/

I left TurboTax about 10 years ago, when I called their specialist line and the woman on the phone said she found the advice she gave me from a chat board of other users. It’s actually been this bad for a while.
