As everyone can probably imagine…we have accrued quite the financial hit with Spike needing emergency surgery & two nights at the hospital. At this point, we need help. If you can, it’s appreciated. Spike I know appreciates it as he recovers!

Link will be included below.
Mom has given me permission to share. The physician & pharmacy did not let her know about the side effect but I did & after seeing what they wanted to put her on next, I told her it should come from me so they take her seriously

We should not have to tho

But that vaccine that was developed in a laboratory is just…you know…not okay *insert eye roll*

In the grand year of 2025 this should not be controversial

Grown ass fucking adults need to leave children alone

Marrying children is not okay. It’s fucking gross & yall defending these fuckers are truly gross too

Like, this is not hard…get the fuck away from children

I truly wish people would understand how fast these things happen

My uncle went from a pre-prof golfer to a quadriplegic at 19 due to a car accident

I went from being a ballet dancer to someone who can only lift up to 25 lbs post spinal surgery after a diving accident at 18
Watching a medical show & there being a diving accident which involved a possible spinal injury is triggering as hell

I know all too well what that shits like…permanent disability for myself at 18 years old

As that time of year rolls around, enjoy a throwback to when I used to dance in the Nutcracker 🤣 I miss dancing, I do not miss the nutcracker

Rewatched ‘V for Vendetta’ the other day, it’s always been a favorite

This movie came out in 2006 & if you have never watched it or haven’t watched it in a while, might be time to watch it bc let me tell you…it’s uncanny how many parallels there are to reality today

These boys were kidnapped outside the courthouse, appearing for their immigration court date.
Working on a I.C.E. kidnap case right now—2 sons, whose mother called on me.

It’s very clear both Uber and Waymo have provided the government my clients’ location via these ride sharing company’s ✨massive✨ tech surveillance op.

No warrant—just pure cooperation.

Stay woke, y’all.

Waymo is I.C.E.

White people: look at this and look at it hard

Y’all are voting against what’s best for you time and time again. I don’t wanna hear WW saying “but we are over 50%”…barely…BARELY 🤨
Last night’s electoral successes happened in spite of white voters, not because of them.

When your new PCP walks into the room already wearing a mask…you know you chose the right one to transfer to!

We are going to miss our last PCP but she deserves to be valued & corps continue to prove they don’t care about their people, just their ability to produce $

On my birthday (two days) I will hit 2500 days sober

Been busy working on crochet things to sell since money has been tight. The hats aren't warm, but I love the colors. The headband is made with blanket yarn and is very warm and cozy. And the bunny is floppy and soft with weighted feet.

Food & water are necessities for human life
To keep a body functioning, access to med care is a necessity
Feeling safe & secure is a necessity therefore access to housing

Guess what…the amt of $ someone does or doesn’t have shouldn’t dictate one’s ability to get ANY of these!

I’m beyond disgusted w/people in the US

Millions of people are quite possibly losing their ability to feed themselves (plus other things) & all you assholes care abt is yourselves

Yall don’t give a shit abt anyone & don’t dare say you do bc actions people…actions speak louder

Not everything is caused by COVID…

Know how I know this assumption people make or conflation is dangerous

Tylenol does not cause autism
Vaccines do not cause autism

See what happens when you assume? Correlation does not mean causation!

Another thing that bothers me

Sometimes cough/sneezing/runny nose is just allergies. People assuming anything else is causing anxiety 4 people who have allergies

I check my child regularly for everything but it’s Fall & they play baseball outside…it’s literally just allergies

You know, I’ve been watching the show Lucifer & I’ve got to say, I’ve learned more about god & religion from a TV show then I did in 18 years of church…& that has to be the most unsurprising thing ever

Diane Keaton died from pneumonia

Yes, pneumonia can kill those who are older but why do I have a feeling COVID probably had something to do with it too…

How long is everyone going to continue to act like COVID is nothing & meanwhile, it’s just killing & disabling people

Fuck my life. I had a bad feeling this was going to happen tho

Shortly after the removal of the spot on my gum 2 wks ago, another started to show up. The biopsy of the tissue from 2 wks ago shows pre-cancerous cells so I have to go in & have the new spot removed too

Yall 😭

Say what you will about FL, there are pockets in this state where people don’t ascribe to the BS the majority of the state spews…just proves more of how gerrymandered we are, but…

Our county said FU DeSatan…we are bringing in outside people to give our kids flu shots…🖕

People…wake up…

Nazis said this too when they were pulling people from their homes in Germany…literally, people acting repulsed by their actions made them wanna get rid of you too bc that’s less resistance…bc they knew what they were doing was wrong
Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.

As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.

People need to stop saying “you need to take ur cholesterol meds before eating…x, y, or z”

That is NOT how cholesterol medicine works. Not even close.

Eating a single high cholesterol meal will NOT affect ur cholesterol levels either

AND…cholesterol being high can be a fully genetic thing too
