The world is a cruel place, but please please please don't forget there is so much more good than evil.

The nurse practitioner flipped through my health history with practiced boredom as I sat in the OBGYN exam room this morning. Then she paused. “Plavix,” she said, her voice flat. “Why are you on that?” I told her the truth. “I had a heart procedure in February. They said I have to stay on blood thinners for 6 months.” She looked up. Really looked. A woman my age, healthy enough on paper, sitting vulnerable in the stirrups of routine care. Her eyebrows lifted slowly. “What happened to your heart?” I started the story the way I always do. “Since 2020, when I was both pregnant and had Covid, it worsened a congenital PFO and inflamed my heart and then…” She cut me off mid sentence, leaning forward, eyes bright and hungry. “Was this after you took the Covid vaccine?” I sat there stunned, watching her morph into something I had seen too many times now. No curiosity nor concern for my wellbeing. Her expression turned colder, almost mechanical. Rehearsed. As if the words were not her own but lines uploaded from an external source, into a synchronized command that had overwritten her natural thoughts. Her eyes gleamed with a programmed certainty that made my stomach turn. I reminded her, voice shaking with anger, that in 2020 there was no vaccine yet. None. I had been pregnant and fighting Covid when the world was still burning without a shot in sight. She blinked once. Her eyes reset to that flat, professional dullness, and she moved on to the next question as if I had never spoken. As if my heart damage had vanished the moment the word “vaccine” left her lips. That was when the real horror settled in. This lie lives and breathes among us all, waiting in every waiting room, hiding behind every clipboard, and wearing every white coat in every specialty. It is not just the internet or late night comment sections where strangers swear the virus was harmless and the shot was the monster. They have all swallowed the same story. The widespread devastation we see now, none of it belongs to the virus that tore through us in 2020. All of it belongs to the needle. The narrative is so complete, airtight, and so perfectly woven that even the people sworn to follow evidence have rewritten history inside their own minds. They look at me, a living witness to what Covid did to a pregnant body, and their eyes glaze over with the same hollow certainty: Covid is innocent. The shot is guilty. I left the clinic this morning with my prescription in hand and a chill that has not left my bones. The scariest part is not the damage inside my chest. It is the damage inside theirs. The certainty that the truth died in 2020 and something else replaced it. Something that smiles across the exam table, asks the same loaded question, and erases you the moment you speak the wrong answer. We are not just patients anymore. We are apparitions drifting through a medical system that has decided our suffering belongs to a different monster entirely. And every time another doctor looks at me with those wide, certain eyes, I realize the horror is not over. It is only just beginning.

I was sitting on 14 tee and watched this entire calamity unfold. The most MINDBLOWING part was that through all of it, Li didn’t give Scottie the go-ahead to hit his short wedge shot from the fairway. Scottie had to stand and wait close to 15 MINUTES before a very delicate downhill half-wedge over the tributary to Rae’s Creek!

Man no one even remembers laptop in bed. It was laptop in bed for years. Now it's just phone in bed. Maybe tablet. But usually phone. So much has changed.

Dorothy wandering through the abandoned Emerald City in Return to Oz (1985) and suddenly being hunted by the Wheelers. A bizarre, eerie sequence for what was supposed to be a family fantasy.

Man I remember when he did this i was like there goes the season. Obviously it wasn’t just this that did it but, I hope he looks back and understands how disrespectful his actions were.

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Kristi Noem.

This is Sonny. Dude drops to one knee on the beach for the proposal and Sonny loses it full Red Bull zoomies, jumping and spinning like the world just got better. Happier than the humans combined. Absolute legend celebrating his forever family.

Oh my politics? fuck Israel, fuck ICE, the president is a pedophile, and I hate the OKC Thunder

@Hali heads up that antiviral medicine they put you on for shingles can make your neck hurt sooo bad

@TonyREast I had them last year at 34, it sucks.

Tyrese Haliburton is away from the Pacers right now because he's come down with shingles. He likely won't be with the Pacers for 2-3 weeks while he recovers. Rick Carlisle says he will make a full recovery. Said this developed recently.

Oh man that sucks

The 13 year-old kid, Sullivan Clarke, who got his neck slashed was hilarious on Fox News.

If we didn’t have ears Humans wouldn’t know Sound existed Meaning there’s a possibility there’s something going on Around us at all times , We just don’t have the body part to detect it .
