Got my Novavax today. Good thing I checked the vial...the pharmacist was all set to shoot me up with Pfizer.

I love these plants. Mine are in full sun...7 ft high.. one of the best pollinators ever. Cut them back to 12 inches for the wildlife to overwinter in the stems and save the seeds for next year.

His past polio catching up with him?

Assuming Buckley isn't just being sarcastic, one way to remain being a Catholic is to read your catechism. Or the 10 commandments. Or a deep dive into the bible. Or maybe do a concept analysis of "decent human being".

I guess that's ok then...hoss.

Hope Oprah topples next. Never in a million yrs would I have thought I'd feel this way but she brought phil to us, nurtured him and when he clearly became a traitor bent on destroying america, she didn't use her power to stop him. She is complicit.

I think it is generations of everything going right...bad things being prevented without fanfare...over protection from consequences of poor choices. Basic naivety and denial replacing survivsl instinct. Partially cultural, partially brain damage from disease and lifestyle creating easy prey.

I've stopped walking on our Greenway b/c of cyclists coming behind me, no warning & missing me by inches. Been almost run over so many times. Rarely amy warning or time to react. Theres a 5 mi bikeway just blocks away. Actions of bikers in traffic? Follow laws? Bicyclists face a self made danger

It's an effective way to slow down climate change &allow big oil oligarchs to get more money. Delay..delay..delay...hoping
to delay climate collapse. Reduce population by all means possible &many problems will be eliminated too. Then just jack up cost of oil to any survivors. Win/Win for Rs

My rain huge in WA got an even 2.0 inches from 7pm Wednesday until 7pm tonight.

I really hope ppl pay attention to this. We don't need another Kerr County. Safer is much better than sorry.

Pam @dumpcreek.bsky.social · 13d

First impression..sorry. Doesn't have anything to do with the kind of person. What caught my eye first was the favial expression FWIW. I kind of doubt the face was meant to be the most memorable part of the photo.

Yuck

You make it look so graceful and easy.

My Advantage plan will go up $66/mo:less coverage, higher total cap on care, med deductible doubles, 2 meds costing over $14,000/yr not covered. My Soc Sec will go up $47-$59/mo. Part B up appx $21.50/mo. Pension won't increase but will cover IRS. MAGA/MAHA. Control climate by reducing population.

Two such good, life affirming ppl dying in their sleep within a couple weeks of each other. Such a loss for the world.

I have been saying not to give in to blackmail, not to give up healthcare. But..but...if Ms Grijalva would be the key to forcing the release of epstein files...could be a bigger payoff. If we could get rid of scumbags, Congress and SC might protect American lives.

My concern is Ds won't educate the ppl. They never do. They always let Rs twist the facts, delete facts and smear the Ds for saving lives.

Did anyone notice the look on hegseths face when he said DIs could lay hands on troops as a tried &true way of teaching? He relished the thought. I'm amazed our enemies didn't take out the audience..half expected a 9/11 type action. How stupid to put all your top guys in 1 room &advertise it.

Pam @dumpcreek.bsky.social · 20d

Your tortie looks like mine..had a couple forties &calicos too. Had a couple pumpkin cats, now another black cat. 90% of mine are reformed ferals. Surpringly I am a dog person..&I only have 1 dog now. I would have more but he won't allow it. And I would never think to go against his wishes.

Never thought of algorithms actually purposefully directing/creating these minds. Of course I knew the effect of SM, influencers, big names like trmp/kirk but of course programming is the most efficient way to program.ppl. I envisioned more personal involvement. I've been living under a rock.

Pam @dumpcreek.bsky.social · 20d

I would like more info about the algorithms.
