My husband has Covid from a work trip. This means the dogs & I are hiding & I'm masking when I head into the kitchen. Being immune compromised means never letting up on masks & always worrying about those around me carrying germs. I'm grateful to at least live in a time when remote work exists.
The @redsox.com organist playing "Let It Snow" feels cruel after this winter - I'll take this weather instead any day 😂
Husband claims he fed the cats, which is deeply suspicious considering it's clear these cats have never been fed in their lives.

Dear American voter, It is August 6, 2026. Economic growth is slow, prices are up, housing and health care is unaffordable, we are in a war Trump started, we are $39 trillion in debt, corruption in govt is rampant. What are Republicans focused on AGAIN today? Dr. Fauci.
A new study shows that among people hospitalized with COVID19, other viruses such as EBV, HSV1, and CMV may be reactivated. This effect isn’t limited to those who are immunocompromised, either. So if you’re wondering why I’m still masking indoors in public, have a read.

Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.
B.C.'ers make sure to pack a grab & go bag for everyone in your family in case of wildfires & pack N95s in that bag because the indoor air in shelters will come with viruses
You could have voted no on Blanche. Idiot.
