Alcohol related ER visits far exceed THC related visits and are for much worse reasons than vomiting. If you want THC banned but are fine with alcohol, you are a hypocrite, and probably a Republican politician taking money from the alcohol industry like NC Senator Ted Budd 🌱 (ironic last name, huh?)

@olsonplanner.bsky.social It seems like the major factor that dictates whether a Roth conversion is worthwhile is where you get the money to pay the taxes from. If you use pretax funds that you have to pay taxes on to pay the taxes on the conversion it negates any benefit. Is that correct? TIA

If you have been hesitant to vaccinate your kids until now, I urge you to change your mind. You cannot count on herd immunity to protect your child anymore and while measles can be VERY serious, even deadly, it is preventable with vaccination.

Trump has already been adjudicated a rapist. Do you really need the Epstein files to confirm that he’s a child rapist also? Stop voting for ALL Republicans. They are complicit in protecting him as long as it serves their personal agenda. They don’t care about you, never did.

I recently realized my @bialettiofficial.bsky.social Moka pot is the 6 cup size. It only holds about 1 cup of water but evidently that’s 6 cups of espresso so I’ve been starting my day with 6 cups of espresso. So there’s that.

Never forget: DOJ failed us. SCOTUS failed us. Mitch McConnell failed us. Senate Republicans failed us. The mainstream media failed us. The Manhattan DA's office failed us. Everyone said Trump was DONE after January 6. But NO ONE did their jobs to make that happen.

Trump is a demented malignant narcissist who knows he is dying soon. He is willing to start WW3 and take the rest of us with him. Nice job everyone who voted for him, really top notch work.

TSA just stole a credit card sized multi-tool that I keep in my wallet because it had a 1-inch serrated edge. They claim I “surrendered” it but they really stole it. Maybe create an exchange program where I can get a similar item they stole from someone else at my destination?

You have to be a special kind of misinformed to fly right now and not wear a respirator mask at the airport and on the plane. #FluAndCovidSeason

Lots and lots of people got flu for Christmas and spent it in the ER instead of at home with their families today. Strongly consider wearing a mask when indoors in public or in crowds until flu has subsided.

While I was in the waiting room for a medical appointment a young woman walked in. When she checked in they asked her about any infectious symptoms and she said “just a cough” then proceeded to sit down a few chairs away and cough occasionally WITHOUT A MASK.
