This reminds my random mind of a story, where my husband had a ‘friendship’ with a goose who lived in the park-area around his workplace. He named her Gertrude (or Gurty, like the character in ET), and he really liked her. Then, one day, She was out there hanging out with Richard, and my husband was over the moon!…

What a cute, microscopic little bump!

I’ve been sitting on the couch, putting off walking to the weed store because it’s 95 out. I’m almost inspired to finally get off my ass.

I’m pregnant currently, and this made me sob. I haven’t actually had crazy hormone swings yet, but this is one of the most amazing things I’ve ever read and she is absolutely stunning and amazing.

I already have fine hair and have recently been experiencing thinning due to one of the several vital-to-staying-alive meds that i am on. I am currently in the position where benefits outweigh side effects but damn, why as a woman does a side effect have to be thinning hair.

I have a hard time not seeing Donnie Jr whenever I see a picture of her, the hairline is definitely the same (as is the jaw, the butt hole mouth, the turkey neck..)

Why the Banksy hate Jezebel? This article sounds like the kid at school who is too cool for EVERYTHING and hates it ALL.

I was recently laid off from Boeing. I have a lot of thoughts but the biggest issue there is absolutely HORRID management. That is killing the company. They don’t know what the fuck they are doing, agree to asinine changes because they don’t have any clue what the area they manage actually does and, despite being…

My daughter got a Stretch Armstrong for her birthday today and said immediately, “It looks like Donald Trump.”

Today Mitch McConnell graduated from turtle shaped hellspawn to head of America’s real live death panel. I hope that b****** is proud.

It’s amazing how many MAGA types don’t seem to realize how the disabled rely on Medicaid. I’m in Texas and have a severely disabled kid who’s on it. It’s her SECONDARY insurance, as in it picks up what our primary doesn’t cover, like wheelchairs that cost more than cars. Or hospital beds for your house, that also…

The sight of those people being FORCIBLY REMOVED FROM THEIR WHEELCHAIRS has me in an enormous rage.

The disabled rights community is always active, always among the first to take action and (here, quite literally) take a hit for those who are powerless. I would say that Republicans should be ashamed of themselves, but clearly they are unfamiliar with the concept.

I feel like there really needs to be an open, Watching-the-Ossoff results come in therapy thread.

Addiction is treated as public health issue. Opiate addiction, while at a crisis level, is just simply not even close to the early years of the HIV epidemic. It was ultimately the HIV epidemic that changed the paradigm of public health, leading to (among other pioneering achievements in the biomedical and public…

This makes me crazy too. I was a middle schooler in 1990, before AZT came on the market and tens of thousands of Americans were diagnosed every year. My parents, teachers, and coaches were all terrified about HIV. Sex Ed was comprehensive. practical, and constant, if a little on the scary side (but none of this…

I am acquainted with a health professional who sits in on a monthly White House meeting/conference call (going back to the end of Obama administration) that addresses the opiate crisis. They were all geared up to expand programs to treat addicts and find better ways to educate kids on the dangers of opiate abuse when…

People lost jobs,had their kids taken from their custody, were burned out of their houses, watched everybody they knew in their circle of friends die. Those who are too young to remember the eighties really can’t grasp that it was a plague; both in the sense of a virus spreading unchecked and in how it was treated (or…

My students do not have meaningful memories of the AIDS crisis at its highest pitch — before the “cocktail” treatment was introduced in the 90s, for sure, HIV/AIDS was an automatic death sentence with a very short horizon. So I have to explain things like ACT UP, Larry Kramer, etc. It’s not as if AIDS went away, of…
