I’ve only been to one wedding where a bridal portrait was displayed and that was a long time ago. I would say it is more of an income thing but people now, including family members, need to take pictures of themselves constantly it seems even at the most inappropriate times. Like a funeral.

I can empathize. I had 5 rescues off the street. All at one time. I still talk to the last one when I’m stressed. Gone over 10 years.

Thank you. They are still trying to find out their cause of death, although one had clotting issues. Initial autopsies were inconclusive. My sister is 84, in pretty good shape with minor cognitive issues.

My sister developed encephalitis from measles pre vaccine availability. In hospital for weeks. Lifelong seizure disorder requiring numerous meds so could not hold a job, learning disabilities, her children had mild to moderate anomalies due to seizure meds during pregnancy. Two died in their 40-50s.

Getting rid of clutter, whether solid objects or other things, clears the mind and helps me to relax/sleep. Sort of.

Sort of made sense.

Agree. I think I could do a better job aligning the words with the theme.

With IBS-D, I generally follow fodmap although I figured stuff out before I knew about it. Even small doses, like 180 mg of mag glycinate, supposedly good for sleep etc, cause problems.

Etude? Having had a spouse who was a strictly classical music aficionado, I became quite familiar with the form. Chopin wrote many.

Same with coffee, meals, car. Latter hard to do without in DFW even if I would rather walk like in nyc. ditched cable and use library apps as well as going there. Love libraries. Academic ones too. Vacation at places where I can walk or use public transport instead of renting car.Rarely buy clothes.

I spent a good chunk of my childhood in local library spaces which is why I am still here.

So-called “Competency-based education” & assessment makes sense for a profession *obsessed* with maintaining homogeneity, virtue ethics and the optics of care. Who needs critical history, structural competency, moral reasoning or the “why” when just looking the part is enough to pass?

Alt: Pale looking half-baked cookies being spit onto a conveyer belt by a machine. They don’t look very flavorful & there is no diversity or variation. Honestly the saddest, most boring cookies. I wouldn’t want my cookie future to be only these cookies. How sad.

A lot of strays in the area and I thought that if I didn’t help them and they got run over, it would be my fault. I found owners for others I took in but not these. My last one. I actually took her from a neighbor who wasn’t taking care of her. She was not real dog like. More of a critical thinker.

CathyRobichaux @cathyrx.bsky.social · 19/05/2026
I might have mentioned I had 5 rescues off the street. San Antonio had a reputation for stray dogs. Last one died about 10 years ago. Have thought about getting one but not sure I want to take care of anybody else at this point after caring for my husband. Have 4 grand dogs though.

Not my responsibility. Sure, I check them but spend my time on the substantive stuff which, right now, unfortunately, means looking for AI generated garbage and/or bad writing in general, flimsy research procedures, ethical breaches (which encompasses a lot of issues previously mentioned) etc.

True. Genuine knowledge or, go forbid, actual expertise, is ridiculed and devalued. Especially healthcare related. Look at all of JFK jr’s genuflectors. Including some of my family members who are more concerned about him cleaning up the soil rather than his flagrant eugenicist/extermination ideas

I try to bring cheese or peanut butter crackers. Stopped bringing fruit after nearly causing an international incident by purchasing an apple at Heathrow. Caught by the produce dog and lectured on the dangers of introducing pests to our crops. Surely they can afford some water to give people.
