I cannot stress enough how deeply I despise these illnesses for the devastation they inflict on so many lives. I also hold great contempt for the medical professionals who make no effort to educate themselves about them. Rest in peace, Anna. 🖤🕊 instagram.com/p/DX50RISFYlK/…

@AnsamGroshong No, if it was used to stop the killing by the Japanese then others have a right to use the weapon against a country slaughtering thousands of innocent.

It is exactly that, hate porn. People fantasizing and masterabating over dropping a nuclear bomb in the Middle East, and they actually think they're the good guys. (Imagine this account has 324k followers).

@Oliversworld24 If I was already stuck having to spend the time, then yes I'd engage in a conversation. Otherwise I rather save my energy for other things. Extremists and even terrorists consider themselves right and have their reasoning for it, but the problem is it doesn't match the reality.

My friend has a cat that caught 27 mice in one night, then arranged them like this all by himself, as if to show off his achievement.

That bag has a name. It's a bindle. And in the 1930s, about 250,000 American teenagers actually packed one and walked out the door to ride freight trains, looking for work after the crash wiped out their families' savings. They were called boxcar boys and girls. Many were just 16 or 17. They left because there was no food at home, or because they didn't want to be another mouth their parents couldn't feed. One boy left home with the 72 cents his mother pulled from her purse, the last of her money. About 4 million Americans were on the road in those years. The cartoon image we know traces back to two artists. Charlie Chaplin's Tramp character, the little guy in baggy pants with a stick, debuted in 1914. He became a global icon. Walt Disney later said Chaplin was one of the inspirations for Mickey Mouse. Then in 1958, Norman Rockwell painted a runaway boy carrying a bindle for the Saturday Evening Post cover. That picture is the one that stuck in our heads. The actual life behind the bag was hard. People who lived it called themselves hobos, and they were strict about the word. A hobo was a worker who traveled. A tramp only worked when he had to. A bum didn't work at all. Hobos hated being mixed up with the other two. They followed the harvests. Strawberries in spring, hops in summer, apples in fall, potatoes in winter. Pay was a few dollars a day, sometimes less. Riding freight trains was illegal and could kill you. Railroad police, who they called bulls, beat them off the cars. You could slip and get crushed between cars. Or freeze to death sleeping in a boxcar in winter. A British poet named W.H. Davies, who wrote a memoir called The Autobiography of a Super-Tramp, lost his foot trying to jump onto a moving train. So they built their own world. Their camps near rail yards were called jungles. They shared a stew called Mulligan, where everyone threw in a potato, or a piece of meat, or whatever they had. They left messages for each other on water tanks: a nickname, a date, and the direction they were heading, so the next person passing through could see who had been there. They had a phrase for someone who died on the road. He caught the Westbound. In 1900, a town in Iowa called Britt, with about 2,000 people, decided to host them. Every August since, hobos and rail riders show up to crown a Hobo King and Queen, with crowns made from coffee cans. The convention is still running. There's a Hobo Memorial Cemetery in Britt for the ones who caught the Westbound. The cartoon turned it into a childhood dream. For a quarter-million American kids in the 1930s, it was just the bag you grabbed before walking out the door.

These signs were placed in hyper-progressive Ann Arbor, MI. The same town where I attended college. While this is terrible, I am glad that at least these people are going full mask-off with their hatred instead of hiding behind "anti-zionism isn't antisemitism" and other lies.

@DavidESmitty No don't worry. There is really zero chance such thing ever happens. There is a ton of misinformation and propaganda against Israel (and it doesn't even help the Palestinians, only encourages and helps the radicals and jihadis on the other side and prevents peace solutions).

@PayeTonPseudo1 @jossyoursalad69 I initially suspected raised intracranial pressure, then found there is a thing where the pressure is caused by venous insufficiency (narrowing, or pressure on them from the outside).

Don’t get mad but I have a question. Have you ever met a neurotypical person with LC and/or ME/CFS?

@PayeTonPseudo1 @jossyoursalad69 I wrote them several times and they're still ignoring it. It's like there is no communication whatsoever. I need to try again, but don't have time. My husband has a back surgery this week.

@PayeTonPseudo1 @jossyoursalad69 It's ok. Happy you're improving. For me I think it's the venous outflow obstruction that's the main problem. It fits my symptoms. Problem is- as always- they're not listening. The notes in my chart are a mess, full of mistakes, and leave out why I went there in the first place.

@jossyoursalad69 Really? Wow. It shouldn't be a problem. Our genes of course affect us, who and what we become, and what illnesses we might get. How else do we learn if we don't ask?

@PayeTonPseudo1 @jossyoursalad69 Asking me? No. I had a blood patch for the CSF leak in Oct, and then embolization for a CSF venous fistula in January, but I'm the same. I still suspect venous outflow obstruction. I asked them to do more scans. I have a CTV neck and head in a couple weeks.
