A doc described allergies and migraines the save wash to me - you have a cup and different triggers add a bit to your cup. That cup is your tolerance and you get symptoms when it overflows. It can be really hard to detect your triggers because it’s not just mountain cedar or soy or whatever - is 2% this and 3% that until it’s full. You can try a journal of everywhere you go, everything you eat, when/where you’re outside, etc.; but it’s easier to just take the meds. If you think the meds aren’t working, go off them for a few days and see how terrible you feel. On day 1 i get sniffly. By day 3 I itch so bad i can’t sleep.

Our old cat, Max, would sit across the room and stare at us at 9:00 every night. When we looked at him, he would turn around and put his back to us and sit there until we fed him. My husband would call out words like snacks, slacks, trax, fax, and when he would actually say Max, the cat would glance over his shoulder at him. They are the worst little creatures in the world. Why do we love them so much?!?! Some days I don’t understand how this furry little wild creature actually lives in our house with us.

Yes. Mostly mutually beneficial roommates.

So the pets recognize it and respond.

Wow! Congrats on the door frame denter. You could probably make some money with tae kwon do style board breaking videos.

Boring politics are the best!!! I long for the days when i didn’t know there was a VP debate.

Mental facilities? Like an inpatient unit? That sounds like a good place for him.

Well, yeah, language is dynamic, but there are so many fad uses of words that are caused by people not knowing the real/original/normal use of the word and then spread by the Internet and then forgotten as quickly as they began. If not for social media, these would be limited to 12 middle schoolers at band camp. This feels like one of those.

I had to scroll up to see if it was The Onion.

I really hope so! We have the people; we just need the votes!!

I use paramour, usually to describe an infidelity situation. No one under 35 knows what it is.

My DIL had at least that many by age 26. Now she makes more than i do, so… 🤷

Oh man. Please make an E so I’m not in the oldest group.

I watched a couple of webinars this week on assistive tech. I had used Look to Speak before, but just learned about Activity Blocks. Also, you can apparently use Google lens on text for difficulty reading cursive or fonts, zoom in, and text to speech (though i can’t get that one to work for me.)

And throw some paper towels

Thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, in most states you can order from vendors/farms online and have it legally shipped to you. Here’s one - eighthorseshemp.com

Actively seek treatment, going from doc to doc until they find one that will perform a procedure.

There was an article awhile back about how popular only fans people (personalities, entertainers? I’m not sure what to call them) hire writers to do a lot of their posts. I thought it was pretty interesting, but my opinion may not be valid as I’m not a man.

Lots of people want to have or claim to have rare medical conditions. It gives then something to do/talk about.
