I just want to scream or maybe just cry. I've been trying to find my daughter help for Selective Mutism and can't seem to get anywhere. She's been previously dropped by a therapist and now I can't seem to find one who can confidently help her. I've called several places who say they don't think

To the people complaining these sex abuse cases have created a world where men now have to think 10 times before they touch a woman. Yes, that's the point. It's called consent. Welcome to human decency.

I keep being told that I'm too young to be in perimenopause, but why tf do I keep waking up at 3am every night hot and can't sleep? Why do my ears itch? Why do I have brain fog? I haven't been myself for several months now and get told to sleep more. It's not working.

We keep checking our voter registration here in Nevada. So far so good. DHS needs to back off. Nevada is very strict about voting.

They warned us Mamdani would impose Sharia law. Instead, he unleashed the real threat: line dancing in Bryant Park.

Felt like a Disney princess as I was trimming off a couple dead branches from our tree in the front yard, and had 3 hummingbirds that kept flying around me. I love hummingbirds. 💜

Can I just get a break from medical issues? That'd be great. My shoulder is starting to feel quite a bit better(yay!), but now my Lymphatic Malformation has flared up. Wtf. Can my body just be normal for a bit? Just do what it's supposed to do. That's all I'm asking. 😢😂🤞

Today's radical seed planting: bought an extra copy of Never Again, For Anyone - a book I really wish had existed when I was a kid - and put it in a Little Free Library.
My hand holds the book Never Again for Anyone, by Stacy Friedman, illustrated by Elly Stern, in front of an open Little Free Library that is painted dark blue. The cover has a light blue background with white swirls and depicts two pairs of moms with their kids holding a protest sign with the book's title on it. On one side is a white Jewish mom with curly brown hair and a red shirt and her son with curly brown hair and a green hoodie. On the other side is an Arab mom wearing a green hijab and a keffiyeh, and her daughter with long black hair and a yellow and purple shirt.

Yay for positive things. 1 - I finally slept through the night. The muscle relaxer helped a lot. 2 - The IRS **FINALLY** gave us our tax refund!! It took them months to verify our account. Hope to never deal with that again.

Went to CVS minute clinic and was prescribed some muscle relaxer to take at night. I just want to be able to sleep through the night. My neck/shoulder pain has been waking me up at 3 am. I somehow hurt my trapezius muscle and it's been rough. Hoping to get rest tonight.

Yesterday we went to a Mexico Independence Day celebration at a local place. Mariachi, other music, and good food. We always try to expose our kids to both cultures and I'm so glad we went. It was fun.

A 40-year-old unvaccinated woman in Pennsylvania has just died from measles. There is no controversy. She needlessly died from a disease that is preventable with a vaccine. But HHS Secretary RFK Jr. thinks measles isn’t that bad. Nobody should die of measles in the United States.

Pennsylvania woman dies of measles-related complications, local coroner says
The 40-year-old woman, who was from Jefferson County was unvaccinated, according to the coroner. The state health department is conducting a "thorough review" of the case.

I'm having deja vu. Election day is just 2 months away and Democrats are infighting. People are refusing to vote for candidates unless they tick off every box that they want. FFS please don't. That's how we got here and I'm tired. Do we not learn?

This has been the most awful week. Between being sick and having more medical issues, I've been on the struggle bus. I'm so exhausted. I don't know what's going on with my body, but I'd really like to get back to feeling normal please.

No, not irreversible. But it will almost certainly take more than one Democratic term to fix. Which is why I’ve been so insistent that folks stop the goddamn purity tests and vote responsibly in November. We aren’t looking for perfect candidates. We’re looking for better than Republicans.

This iconic 1971 photo of Gloria Steinem and Dorothy Pitman Hughes has always said so much without saying a word. Two women. Two raised fists. One shared fight for equality. Dorothy passed in 2022. Now Gloria is gone too. Two giants who helped change America. Rest in power, Gloria. ✊🏼✊🏾

Where to shop for inexpensive kids clothes for a clinically underweight child? My daughter is worried about being dress coded. If the shorts fit her waist well, then they tend to be shorter than required. If the shorts are long enough, they fall off her waist. It's so dang hard buying her clothes.

This is ridiculous. It's like banning Hondas and Toyotas in the 1980s, rather than making the US auto industry actually compete and make good, electric cars people want

Chinese cars could be huge in U.S., and that’s the problem, officials say
An existing 100% tariff and 2027 Commerce Department restrictions on connected vehicles from China make it impractical to import Chinese vehicles today. A Senate bill would codify that exclusion.

Is there a trick to get better medical care? I'm so frustrated with the medical care here in the Las Vegas valley. 😫 Between the misdiagnosis my hisband received to the pharmacist who doesn't know any answers I had for my meds, I'm tired. It's so frustrating.

Please say they're not children. 💔 I also don't want to hear anything about "natural selection" or other bs. This happened because we allowed idiots to run the country, destroy public health, and have leaders who are against vaccines.

Made homemade sushi for dinner. Yum! Washed the rice, cooked it, added the rice vinegar. Made rolls with avocado and fish. All of this for my kids to decide, well I'm not sure if I like sushi anymore. 🤦🏼‍♀️ what? They just picked at it.

Tax the rich. "Trickle down" has never worked and absolutely no one needs to be a billionaire. If an animal hoarded food from others, they'd be studied to figure out what is wrong with them, yet humans hoard wealth and some people celebrate it.
