Wobbly One Of Myriads @wobblewuffess@awoo.space

@wobblewuffess Marin Luther King Jr. was so right about this. (You've read excerpts from his Letter from Birmingham Jail, right? http://www.hartford-hwp.com/archives/45a/060.html)

I wish his later years of activism in which he (previously an integrationist, which is now seen as a racist concept) and Malcom X (previously a segregationist, which is def racist), both working together essentially realized what has now become the more modern anti-racist movement, and the US Gov assassinated them for it.

@nowak I've been saying it for a while now: This is one of the biggest reality-disconnects on the US left. They claim to stand on the platform of scientific fact and protecting minorities, and yet their gun legislation often demonstrates precisely the opposite (eg: cops enforce these laws exclusively against minorities, high cap mag bans will _never_ keep high cap mags out of the hands of mass shooters, or banning only "scary looking" guns to win political favor)

The 2nd Amendment seems superfluous to those with the privilege to feel safe within their environment.

In reality, the 2nd Amendment is the last remaining line of defense against the US becoming a total police state. Those who can't trust the police rely on the 2nd Amendment to keep them safe from the police.

Gun laws only serve to give the police more power to do what they already do best: Oppress and kill Black, Indigenous, Trans and other Minorities.

One problem with having separate specialists for separate conditions is that each one of them is adamant that the most important thing in the world is to take their medication exactly as directed, regardless of everything else in your life.

This is deeply annoying when I am basically nonfunctional until the caffeine or Adderall kicks in but my general physician is very adamant that I should take levathyroxine separately and before everything else - ideally an hour before everything else, but half an hour will do - including breakfast and especially caffeine.

My psychiatrist thinks it’s fine to take Adderall XR at the same time as levathyroxine. My GP doesn’t. I’ve spent the morning trying to figure this out myself. I am pretty sure my psychiatrist is right. I also can’t find *any* citation on the caffeine thing - it keeps coming up in instructions to patients, but I can’t find any studies or documentation or known food interactions explaining it. I’ll follow that anyway because the caffeine is less important than the Adderall.

Makes me appreciate the push for “evidence-based medicine”. Rumor and tradition account for more professional medical advice than I’d like.

She laughed out loud at the joke, and all saw her fangs.
"Are you some kind of monster?" another pupil said, smiling widely. "I thought I was the only one!"
One by one, the kids revealed hidden horns, tails, claws, and fangs. All but one.
"Are you normal?"
"No, I think you are."

sadly you aren't them, but if you stopped dragging your feet and scheduled that consultation you've been thinking about, you could be."

why do I feel like it's inescapable that future ads will resurrect that meme

When she came of age, she got the usual gifts. Good shoes, to take her anywhere.
Threads and needles, to mend what was torn.
A sword, to defend and punish.
Then the last thing, which wasn't a gift.
"What will you do?" they asked.
"What I want," she said.
The last thing was taken.
