I have finally been diagnosed with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome. It took seven months, multiple specialists, and considerable changes to my life. I am now waiting for a CBT appointment that can help me find my personal exertion envelope, triggers, and adapt my lifestyle.

The bullet points read like a logic puzzle until you realize: All the *LIVING* former presidents *OF THE US* have been excluded. He's talking to ghosts, misleading by referring to a former president of a different country, or (most likely) the weasel is LYING.

LOL... that is too funny. The GOP is hoping their base says "oh, yeah - I'm sure we had to show ID in order to have our kids. I mean, I don't remember that, but they would have stopped the labor if we didn't show ID, right?"

The SAVE Act is voter suppression, plain & simple. The GOP know they will lose the House and - possibly, hopefully - the Senate in the midterms. I have my birth cert. I have my marriage cert. I have my passport. I still oppose this garbage bill that disenfranchises millions. NO!

Also - the thought of Jake Paul running for office seemed far-fetched. Then I remembered the GOP backed Herschel Walker... the guy that brought a toy police badge to a debate to prove he really was a LEO. It was still a very narrow victory for Raphael Warnock. The GOP isn't bringing quality.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

We had a small house and it would have meant one of us kids had to live in the small area of finished basement and come upstairs to use the bathroom. I offered to do that, but everyone said moving her back was "best." When the time came that she couldn't live alone, she begged again.

All her kids said no and moved her into assisted living. Now, my dad ASSUMES it will be different for him. It will, but it's bc we won't do what they did to Grandma. I irritably told him that. He was stunned and quietly ended the convo. My older sis asked if that was necessary. FUCK YES.

My parents, aunts, and uncles helped her sell her house and move back to the small town she was raised in about 2 hours from where we lived. She had siblings, cousins, and numerous others in that town, but she wanted to live around us. I was angry they wouldn't let her move in.
