Can this be pumped into my veins, please?

@Supersonic_Red You go, Girl!

4.9. Back in remission. I don’t take numbers lightly anymore. I’ve lived the back and forth. The climb, the drop, the “we’ve got it” followed by “not so fast.” Leukemia is not a straight line. It’s a fight for ground, sometimes inches at a time. Yesterday, we took ground back. A lot of people don’t understand what prednisone actually does in this fight. It’s not a gentle medication. It’s not something you casually take and move on from. Prednisone is a hammer. In leukemia, it works by killing off lymphocytes and suppressing the disease. It reduces the burden, weakens what’s trying to take over, and gives your body and the rest of your treatment a chance to regain control. But it comes at a cost. High doses flood your system. They can make your heart race, your mind spin, your body feel like it’s running a marathon while standing still. Sleep becomes optional. Appetite can go sideways. Emotionally, it can be a rollercoaster you didn’t sign up for. And physically… the pain. What I’ve been dealing with in my hips and femur wasn’t just discomfort. It was deep, structural, relentless pain. The kind that reminds you with every step that something is very wrong. And now… it’s gone. That alone feels like a miracle. The prednisone held. It did exactly what it was supposed to do, even if it demanded everything in return. So here I am. 4.9. In remission. Feeling good. Clear headed. Moving without pain. Is the fight over? No. Anyone who has lived this knows better. But today is a win. A real one. My face is a little puffy from the prednisone. That will fade once I’m off of it. And yes, those are scars on my nose and upper lip. They’re part of the story too.

@dave_brown24 Stan may not be the guy you want to put up as some kind of moral bar....

“I think that Dan Caine is at a moral crossroads,” said retired Army Gen. Stan McChrystal, who led U.S. troops in Afghanistan. “The chairman’s unique role and responsibility put him in the room where key decisions are made,” McChrystal said. “He must speak truth to power in a way that can run counter to being viewed as a good team player” wsj.com/livecoverage/i… @laraseligman @mgordonwsj

@UNWatch This made me smile....

TRAGIC: “Today, the resources are not here,” says UNRWA's Philippe Lazzarini. “The U.S. has stopped. Another important donor has stopped—Sweden. It was part of the top five. And we have a significant decrease of the Arab world's contribution to UNRWA. In 2025, it dropped by 90%.”

@ShipwreckVF That, and it's a knockoff leather jacket, not the issued one. Sounds like a tool.....

Don’t be a former Air Force pilot running for Governor of Oklahoma and in your campaign ad stand next to a Tomcat saying “I use to fly fighters like this” no you didn’t. This bugs me a lot am I wrong?#TomcatTuesday

@AGEllison Translation: "Were going to have to bail this money pit out"....

I toured HCMC today. This public safety-net hospital serves everyone no matter ability to pay and is one of the highest-ranking in the US for trauma and other services. It serves all of Minnesota, not just Hennepin County. It’s a great public asset and we will make it stronger.

@peggyflanagan Angie’s polling numbers got you worried, eh? @RepAngieCraig

Donald Trump is unhinged. It’s time to remove him from office, period. Anyone abdicating their responsibility today will be on the wrong side of history, forever.

@JoeyMannarino Just think how disappointed they’ll be when they find out the virgins are female…

When Moslems talk about the 72 virgins.. I always wonder what those 72 virgins would look like. Would they be underage? Would they be menopausal virgin women? Would they be blue hair liberal? Would they be transsexuals? Or maybe they could just be goats? I'm just curious..

@TheRealGOP Another important agenda item in Minneapolis…. startribune.com/minneapolis-or…

Tim Walz said this is the best state to live in. Socialists run Minneapolis and this is what it looks like.

@WPLGLocal10 Perhaps she should’ve honored the original deportation order, then come back to get married. FAFO

FIGHTING TO STAY: A U.S. Army staff sergeant is trying to halt his wife's deportation after she was detained inside a Louisiana military base where the couple was planning to live together just days after their wedding. local10.com/news/2026/04/0…

@FistedFoucault I’m thinking they’ll both have enough of the plastic bottle cap retainer…

My ideal scenario is for the Yanks and Chinks to slaughter each other over the period of 10 to 15 years while Festung Europa sits it out and sells everything to both sides over the course of the war.

@drpezeshkian Your terms are acceptable

More than 14 million proud Iranians have so far registered to sacrifice their lives to defend Iran. I too have been, am, and will remain devoted to giving my life for Iran.

@HennepinAtty Is it wrong I laughed out loud when reading that first sentence?!

This morning, Dijon Jacquez David pled guilty to second-degree intentional murder in the killing of Justin “Juice” Marshall. Mr Marshall’s death was felt throughout the community and we hope his loved ones can find closure and peace with this plea.

This is a brazen pre-admission of genocide against the Iranian people, which would obviously be a war crime. Madness.

@LarryJones @JENin140 “Your terms are acceptable”

🚨BREAKING: Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian says he and 14 million Iranians are ready to ‘sacrifice their lives’ for Iran!

@pika_nekopanda Had a Japanese professional ask me if it was safe to visit Hawaii. Told him yes, but to take the same care as in any big American city. He said he’d heard they didn’t like Japanese there because of some battle during the war. He’d heard of Pearl Harbor, just no details.

親愛なるアメリカニキへ質問です。 アメリカでは太平洋戦争を学校でどのように習いましたか？ ちなみに日本での習い方を正直に話すと、空爆や原爆の被害を細かく深掘りして習います。東京、広島、長崎、沖縄の出来事を重く扱います。そして真珠湾に関してはそこまで大きく触れません。

@pika_nekopanda Taught in normal history classes, usually just a few lessons to cover all of WWII, repeated in more depth at different grade levels. I have an English version of a Japanese history book from the 1990s, given as a gift. WWII gets two ambiguous sentences. I get it, but it’s weird.

When was the exact moment in America when everything started going downhill?

@adamcarolla For a piece at literal excrement, you form cognizant thoughts and type extremely well! 🤣

You can’t literally be a piece of shit. That is an overstatement

@huguruma_izumi Does Japan have an equivalent to “Florida Man”? Is it “Okinawa Man”?

アメリカはとても深いBBQ文化を持つ国と言うことを知りました。 カリフォルニアは何故か嫌われることが多い州だということを知りました。 フロリダは全裸男性がサケやドラッグをやりながらワニを殴ることが多い州だということを知りました。
