Gonna pin the most recent of my #HalloweenTombsones here for the year because it’s at lot easier to scroll thru them from the bottom up!

Yes, I'm certain that the family of National Guard Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, as they are grieving over her loss, will take great comfort in Trump's margin of victory in West Virginia
Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?
TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

In a massive meeting of doctors… on the topic of the aging population and resource problems…
Yes.
One of them said we should consider not treating people with co-morbidities.
My friends.
I could not hold my tongue.

Right.
I see.
And they said disease control was expensive.
How many buildings could we have fixed with this kind of money? Hmmm?

I just achieved a new best score on a Scrabble game: 510 (set to Hard, playing against a computer. I cheat by using an app bc the computer IS an app, so it levels the field a bit. But still…three bingos is unusual!)

How many of us have had that conversation… telling someone that they have a disease that will progressively cause cognitive decline? Or loss of mobility?
The fear and sadness this provokes?
That’s why I’m gentle with “the masses” wrt C19.

💯♥️😷🤗 Doctors take an oath to DO NO HARM. They must protect patients. But many of them dropped masks years ago. I wrote a song "Minimizer" about it

First came across Biscoff biscuits in June--they were in a B&B we stayed at in Scotland. Loved them so much we bought some in a grocery store to bring back with us--having NO IDEA that they're common here. I don't go a day without seeing a reference to them somewhere. How did I miss them before??
HELLO BLUESKY I AM ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A THANKSGIVING DESSERT

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.
This is what happens when you put a privileged, 14 year heroin addict in charge of health. Duh
