    Yeah, it's not unsafe until someone falls and breaks a hip or sustains a subdural hematoma. Or someone makes a horrible drug error because they rushed a med pass.

    Greetings. It's 85 degrees here and I'm tuckered out. Dd and I walked a trail past some old army batteries, to the area where she is staying in the old officers' quarters. I took a picture of our...

    good morning. another nice day here, predicted to get up to 80. I am meeting dd to shop for our camping trip to Oregon via the Washington State coast. We leave tomorrow and will be going to camp at...
  7. I listen to some right-leaning talk show hosts during the day. It seems like they get their assigned talking points for the day and then beat them to death. And I peek at Fox News online from...

    Hi. Another nice, sunny day here. it's 66 degrees and dh is complaining about the heat. I really think the humidity at 65% is what makes him so uncomfortable. Youngest ds and I are going to take the...
  9. Y'all are welcome to ignore my recommendation for a podcast based on the host saying something mean about a fringe news outlet 4 years ago. I find the use of historical news clips to illustrate...

    Hi. I am determined to get a lot accomplished today, to ready for our trip. I went for a nice long, walk/jog this morning, about 4 miles. I need new running shoes, because my knees and feet are...
  11. Their loss. I think she and her crew do a great deal of research, as opposed to say, a news source that merely repeats, or cherry-picks little tidbits from other news
  12. Speaking of podcasts, I highly recommend Rachel Maddow's new one, called Deja News. She and her long time associate, Isaac-Davy Aronson. Each week they highlight a historical event that echos a...

    Trying to get paxlovid for dh turning into a circus. dh called his provider first thing this morning. He didn't want to go wait at the walk-in clinic, so the earliest tele-health call was 4:30. Then,...

    President Biden thread

    What do you think about legacy admissions? How about scholarships to athletes who have less than stellar academic records? How about home-schooled children who don't have AP classes on their...

    President Biden thread

    (FYI, the following is sarcasm) Yup, all those non-deserving persons of color preventing the truly deserving, white boys from going to Harvard and UNC. Just like Justice Brown Jackson took a seat...

    It's still on the cool side here, only up to 72. But of course, dh has to have the air conditioning on in the truck, set to "arctic blast." I volunteered at the plant clinic, then picked up another...

    The election 2024 Thread

    If I remember correctly, the first item of note that Obama signed was the Lily Ledbetter Act, promoting fair pay. The first thing that Trump signed, was the Muslim ban. One of these things is not like...

    Good morning. I felt like I was busy yesterday, but don't feel like I actually accomplished anything. I went shopping for a stretchy skirt for sis that would be easy to wear over her horribly swollen...

    Have those things gotten better since the GOP gained the majority in the House and Supreme Court, and the ability to filibuster Senate votes? What party is blocking military

    Yes, safe travels, Joe. I agree, Annie, about bedbugs—nothing to be embarrassed about. From talking to my former public health colleagues, they are super sneaky. NoStars, there is nothing...

    Thank you all for your kind words. Dh is taking this hard. It's too quiet around here. I sat in on Sis's intake visit with the nurse and PT. They both emphasized pain control, and tsk'd tsk'd...
