Good friends up near Chicago lost their 30 year old daughter on Thursday in a car crash resulting from her running a stop sign. Maybe she was distracted, but FFS it was a rural area and little traffic at 10am, what are the odds? We're gutted for them. She was a newly graduated paramedic.

I had an earwax thing this week, almost bad for urgent care. But I resolved it finally. Meanwhile, I researched earwax. Turns out, it naturally works itself out through jaw movement as you eat or talk, which confused my husband, who asked. "Why the problem? If you're not talking, you're eating!"
My husband has been after me for years to read this. I finally remembered and snagged it from the library. @maralynmaralyn.bsky.social you might love this. Chicago history, architecture, a gruesome serial killer, a true story that reads like fiction. Incredible. a.co/d/0dF6eDDO

@josephinerobertson.com I fixed my ear! Thought I'd give it one last try before heading to urgent care and the stuff worked! Now I just have a headache from 3 days of pressure but I can deal with that.
@josephinerobertson.com Hey, was it you who had the problem with silicone ear plugs? I wish I could say I was asking for a friend.
I never reported a YouTube ad until today, but they'd better take that thing down. "Meet single Asian women today!" With a photo of a young Asian woman by a washer and dryer, removing laundry from the dryer. My God, I mean...didn't that awful stereotype ad die off in the 70s??
I married this charming and silly Scotsman 28 years ago today, 8 years into our relationship. I guess we wanted to be sure 😊.
I might participate in a political or public policy poll if the person on the other end of the call wasn't basically a script-reading robot with almost no ability in English.
My Fitbit Charge 6 is suddenly not syncing. I've spent the last day going through every possible fix. It is unpaired and just won't pair, the Google health app doesn't even recognize the watch. So I guess now I'll just use it as a clock and a timer. I've had enough of this.
Just occurred to me, if the unthinkable catastrophe had happened to the decoy AF1 flight, imagine how much more insufferable he'd be when he reappeared unscathed.
Their "commander in chief" couldn't care less. This is appalling. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

ITCH. Sometimes I swear itching is worse than pain. I was outside for less than an hour yesterday. Forgot to apply bug spray. I woke up with about 20 bites all over me today. Quarter-sized welts. I could scream. Ivarest only helps a little.
May Donald Trump rot very slowly in hell, for his comments about Biden's dire health update, if nothing else. VERY SLOWLY.
I didn't see reposts for years until they were forced on me yesterday and wow I had no idea people reposted so many feed-hogging stupid memes. I'll just be over here hiding reposts for about a thousand people now.
As I've been saying, these orders are toothless, and insurance companies are sure to keep covering childhood vaccines.
Dr. Lucky Tran@luckytran.com · 2w agoImportant: Trump’s executive order is NOT legislation. Though the executive order promotes more misinformation about vaccines, nothing has changed about the availability of childhood vaccines. For evidence-based guidance, please follow and share American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations.
If you've turned off all reposts in your feed, you'll now have to manually turn them off for individual follows. This is not the improvement I hoped for. My feed is suddenly flooded with reposts I'm not interested in.
Husband walks in, sees this and says, "Y'know, you should freeze that." Me, thinking, "Nah, I was just thinking of making 500 Margherita pizzas and the world's biggest caprese salad for dinner tonight."
I've been suspended from Nextdoor for the sixth time this year, this time for 30 days. I used the word "suckers" to describe anyone (generically) who'd fall for a scammy post the moderators had removed. A post they thanked me for reporting before they removed it.
