  1. Painsomnia - a portmanteau of pain and insomnia. I'm typing this at almost 2 am, not because I'm having a good time. No, I'm having a pain flare. ☹️

  2. CW: USPol, Trumpism

    We are the enemy they want to kill

    Deeply disturbing, frightening. I'd not encountered the "no quarter" black flag before. This article on DailyKos explains what it is and what it means.

  3. CW: USPol, Voter registration, Vote suppression

    "There is a step you can take in advance of voting in federal elections to make sure your registration status is active. And it’s easy. You can go online and check your registration status. ... And here’s the best part, the National Motor Voter Act says you can’t be removed from the voter rolls closer than 90 days out from the election."

    "But then, can we focus on actually educating kids?"

    I agree. By contrast, #P2025 would eliminate the Department of Education entirely. 😡

  5. "It’s a very common lament: that there is no civility left these days, as compared to earlier days, and the main reason appears to be that those on the “left” refuse to be friends with those on the “right,” shunning them simply because of their political views."

  7. So lovely. No sooner than I finish the above two posts, than what should happen? Yes, the cramps in my right leg began to escalate. I just took a tizanidine (2mg) and it's easing a bit. Those tend to knock me out though.

  8. I just started "A Christmas Carol" (1984) with George C. Scott as Scrooge. I'm watching it on Tubi, which is streaming TV with ads.

    He was such an incredible actor. I'm 6 minutes in, and already it's powerful. 😲

  9. Another thunderstorm, another power outage. It began about 10:55 am EDT. According to the power company, restoration will be around 1pm. We'll see. I'm not confident. Last time was ~22 hours.

    And of course I hadn't charged my phone today, so I'm starting off at 74% battery.

    2 outages in just over one week. Rather an inauspicious start to summer in Georgia. 🤷‍♀️

  10. CW: Bodily functions

    I started Lipitor recently as a result of the various heart issues and tests. One of the side effects that can happen with a statin is constipation.

    I've been blocked for several days. Usually my morning coffee would kick start things, but not since this started. Yes, coffee can act as a laxative.

    After this morning's coffee didn't do the trick, again, I took a "harsh laxative." That did the trick. I was carrying *quite* a load.

  11. So, #painsomnia , I'm hopeful that the #benadryl I just took will help me get drowsy enough to drift off. Also, I won't mind if my feet stop itching. Thanks. #spoonie

  12. Total ED bill for the domestic assault: $7709.80
    My portion: $230.37

    I definitely am glad to have had Medicare Advantage.

    Still to come, bills for ambulance services, if any.

  13. CW: Star Trek: Picard, no spoilers

    Just watched the finale of Star Trek: Picard. Emotional, exciting, incredible. I know a lot of fans didn't love ST: Picard, but I for one, enjoyed it thoroughly. Yes, all 3 seasons. No doubt I consider season 3 to have been the best.

  14. CW: trans, surgery question, voting

    A question for those who've undergone orchi. Mine is 31-Oct. Election is Nov-5. I'm in a rural area, with the original plan being to vote in person on the day. Likely won't be long lines. Am I going to feel okay to do that?

    Thanks in advance.

  15. CW: Gender affirming surgery?

    Fingers crossed. 🤞

    I've begun searching for a surgeon for an #orchiectomy. I am cautiously hopeful I might be able get that done early next year.

    I heard back from one surgeon's office this afternoon. I have a consult on 26-Sep. Another hasn't returned my call yet. Both are in network with my insurance.

  18. "If the political right were actually concerned with the physical and emotional safety of youth as it purports to be, it would support effective firearms safety measures, since gun violence today remains the number one cause of death for young people ages 1-19, at a rate of nearly 5 in every 100,000. Black children are six times more likely to die of gun violence than their peers of other groups."

  19. CW: Tell them you love them, homicide

    Life is unpredictable. Tell them you love them. A friend was shot and killed early this morning.

    "Mercedes Mahone told Channel 2′s Justin Carter that her mother, Racquel Mahone, was sleeping in her car, waiting for her son, when she was shot and killed."

  20. Understanding My Trans Journey

    I’ve signed off many posts on my blog with the sentence “The journey continues.” It’s time I expounded a bit on the meaning behind that.
