Here for ME/CFS info. Fatigue & brain fog limit my interactions quite a bit.

Love animals, the outdoors and happy stories, work in art department for photo and video production.

Weird that this massive public benefits scandal doesn’t seem to move the needle the way a fake video about Somali-run daycares did
Ex-Mississippi welfare chief John Davis confessed to WWE wrestlers Ted DiBiase Jr. and Brett DiBiase that he "tried to buy your love" as he sent millions in Temporary Assistance for Needy Families funds to The Million Dollar Man's sons.

While denying 99% of poor families who applied.
Welfare Scandal Mastermind Sought to Woo DiBiase Brothers as He Directed Millions to Wrestlers
The odd relationship between the mastermind of the Mississippi welfare scandal and two ex-wrestlers was on display in Ted DiBiase Jr.’s trial.

Just a reminder that George Conway is not fundraising right now to run against a MAGA republican.

He is fundraising to run against progressive Democrats.

To keep Donald Trump’s voter base entertained with spectacles of predatory violence, ICE recruiters are offering bribes to seduce gullible individuals into doing harm to their neighbors.

To counter this, we have prepared a video and poster campaign of our own.

New research shows major damage in the brain stress system of people with very severe ME/CFS.

The key finding: a near-loss of the neurons that start the cortisol stress response. This helps explain low cortisol and many symptoms.

Let’s break it down in simple language.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

"what's the point of standards?" Is such a perfect epitaph for america.
“I’ve been hearing that standards will be eliminated or severely cut back. Bari has told people that she wants to get rid of standards and is shocked that they have so much power. She also asked openly, ‘What’s the point of standards?’” one CBS source said.

There’s no screening for ovarian cancer and it’s really difficult to spot: you can’t squidge your ovaries in the shower to check for lumps. Also it’s very good at masquerading at other things, like IBS and diverticulitis.

Please take a look at this list of symptoms - and share if you can.
