Boy, I have not been on here in forever. School is intense. Ugh. But, I met a guy. He lands at the airport in a couple hours. So, don't expect to be seeing much of me yet again. 😆

I guess I won't be ordering this: I'm also hearing that some countries will no longer send any mail to the US which is causing problems for retired expats that need to file SSA forms in order to keep getting their soc. sec. checks. #TariffStupidity #deMinimusIssue

I remember this like it was yesterday. I turned 7 a couple weeks later and it was a great birthday month gift! Spock was my first hero and I saw myself in almost every single one of the rest of the crew. Except the Captain. He was just a bit too hetero for me, even at that age. lol

I have been in bed all day recovering from the covid & flu vaccines yesterday & I can’t wait to get out of bed & go feed/put the animals to bed so I can come back inside & go back to bed. I never get to do this unless I’m sick which is v. v. rare. 😁 #SickDayOnTheFarm #VaxFun

This is why wishing 🍊💩☠️(of natural causes, of course) is not the answer. There’s a cadre of these like minded 💩s in the same area & millions more living right next door to you.

I guess I didn’t top off the week yet. Just spent hours with chills so violent that I thought I might be having a seizure. Can’t believe I didn’t 🤮. Not done yet. Once I get over this, at least I’ll be safer this season. #VaxFeverChills #RoughRide

Just to top off the crazy week, I decided to get the new covid and flu shot today. Guess what I feel like now? Achy and tired but NOT LIKE A FUCKING FASCIST!!! #VaccinesForTheWin #CovidVax #FluVax #FuckFascists

Ya'll....I do not know what is afoot but so far in just the last week: Half of my off grid electric system went down; Feral pigs have been hitting and destroying my farm nightly; I broke my damn toe. My Starlink died last night, so its cellphone hotspot until fixed; & more shit #WitchSky #WTF

Today, while I was on campus, another student showed me an email from the university that they were offering *free* full tuition paid classes for those under the Homeland Security Certificate: Intelligence & Security Mgmt Transport & Border Security #WFTIsGoingOn #FreeTuitionForRacists

I've been taking online classes @ universities for decades now & haven't set foot on campus since then. Except for today when I decided to stop by & get my student ID, in case of ..discounts! The eye candy there was enough to make me think about taking in person classes again. #TooOld #GayUni

Someone recommended a "dating" site that they said was for vegans. What they failed to say was that it had several "communities" to choose from, not just vegan...which included REPUBLICANS. I noped the fuck outta that real quick. #GayVegan #NORepublicans #FuckOffPlayingBothSides

For the past few days, a lot of stuff about Jung has been randomly popping on my different feeds and I'm not sure why. I know virtually nothing about Jung but what little I've heard/read I didn't really care for so 🤷‍♂️. Altho, the detachment/individuation bit seems appropo #WitchSky #Jung

oh fuck...I signed up for a class that makes me learn Java. Why is this shit so persistent? Can we not get with the 21st century or are we always going to have the ghost of Mitch McConnell floating overhead? Suxxxxx. #IHateJava #AntiquatedCompSci #FML

I do not know wtf was going on in town today but every store I went into looked like the nursing homes had dropped off all their old dead white men in wheelchairs & motorized carts. I never saw one of them move & they were randomly parked around the stores.👨‍🦳👩‍🦽💀 #WTF #OldDeadWhiteManDay

Oh shit. Fall classes start next week and I just saw that my stats professor is *exactly* my type. Good thing the class is online. Problems I never thought I would have. And it reminds me that it sucks that I was "straight" when I first started college back in the day. 😆 #HotTeacher #AndHeIsGay

Well, this is a new wrinkle. I now have to set an alarm to remind me to breathe more on a regular basis in order to keep my pulse below 90. So much fun. And apparently, the MRI I need can't be done on this island. #HealthcareInAmerica #WhatCenturyIsThis

Ya’ll…I woke up this morning thinking that I really need to tell my best friend about that movie I saw last night that was so good. Then, I realized I didn’t see a movie. I dreamed the entire movie & it was really good. Then, I realized I even *dreamed the best friend*. Don’t have one of those.

Meeting new guy online when you have special “abilities” : Him: Wow, we have so much in common! I really think we should meet now. Me: (spidey sense tingling) I think you aren’t being truthful with me… Him: oh, the part where I didn’t tell you I’m in a rehab for substance abuse, etc? #WitchSky

Ya'll - I just spent 2 hours getting a test done at the hospital by the most racist, MAGA loving, Trump supporting GAY man. I had heard they existed but, literally W-T-F? And he was so proud, he risked his job to tell me all the gory little details. #WTFIsWrongWithUSA #IWantOutNow

I saw these meme the other day but I don't think people are connecting the fact that it took a war to defeat the first two. And protests are not going the make the 3rd one walk away. #FuckFascists #NoDictators

ok, so I'm still sort of on FB, mostly for a couple of friends & the local marketplace. Today, one of those little scrolls that show you friends of friends was up & I saw this really cute guy. Is it acceptable or creepy to DM someone that you don't know but is a friend of a friend? #ReallyNotAHo

This was a first...went to check on eggs in the coop & a hen was perched at the opening of the nest box. These are about 4' off the ground. She decides to jump to the ground, I see an egg sticking out her butt. She flys, the egg drops, I catch it mid air. #SillyChickens #AirMailEggs

I have worked in healthcare for 50 years w/20 of intersectional alt h/c. 12 years ago, I started having s/s that 15 MDs couldn't pinpoint. Most were leaning towards a psych dx. Today, armed with a recent dx & testing, I used AI to confirm that the s/s were related to the PFO dx. #USHealthcareSux

More on the hole in my heart today from the pulmonologist. "Ok, you have this hole, that's not the big deal. The problem is that the blood flow is reversed from what we should see & an interesting % of your blood never makes it to your lungs." Fun stuff #BubbleStudy #HoleInTheHeart #LowO2

Interesting take in Economics re: human capital deepening -- education & experience count towards deepening. While education in US has increased, experience has remained static over decades. Can confirm that CEOs care more abt the # of butts in seats over how long a butt has been in a seat. #BadEcon
