Hello social medias...

You may not be aware a major Cat 5 hurricane struck an area that normally doesn't get them. The eye passed directly over Carriacou and Petit Martinique.

The devastation is tremendous. The need is great.

You can help and make a difference:

My father started out a Republican and became a Democrat as he became financially successful. He saw what was happening to the Republican party and said he felt he had a responsibility to those who were not as fortunate as he was to change his vote. I miss him every day.

I have a medical condition called Dysautonomia. The sound and vibration causes me to vasovagal. If I am walking when they go off it means I fall. Our towns issue permits for both public AND private corporate events and won't notify me ahead of time so I can prepare. It's time for drone fireworks

An estate attorney is a good place to start. Depending on your state, they may have their own advance directive form online and the attorney should know that. Remember to register these forms with the hospital ahead of time.

It seems weird to "like" this. It would be great if Bluesky had a button for sending a "heal well!"

I had a serious accident in May and being confined to a bed, art that comforts me has kept me going. In Perhaps I'll be ready for art that challenges me and makes me uncomfortable again one day. We are changeable creatures and thank goodness all art is not the same.

Some have had cool hosts like @scalzi.com & Levar Burton to facilitate asking questions, some have the authors taking questions about their new work only, some have someone from the host org facilitating Q&A from Chat Questions. The fan chat on the side is fun too!

Authors started doing virtual book events during the lockdown and some still include one on each tour. Since I am isolated due to long covid I have attended as many as I can.

I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases)

Walgreens once filled one of my prescriptions for a specific brand only as indicated by my doctor with a different brand without notifying me (I need gluten free and have other issues). Meanwhile they printed the label that said "xxxx brand only'" and put it over the name of the other brand.

I hadn't thought of roasting either but just found recipes for both on the Internet! I'd be hesitant to grill because both are so small.

I do mine for breakfast. For a bigger smoothie I use frozen sour cherries (we have a little orchard) and some kind of berry, or mango for a treat.

I always make apricot smoothies without any other fruit because they are so seasonal here and the taste is so delicate.

This is how my friend and I review KDramas before recommending them to each other as they tend to suffer from weak final episodes. "Did they stick the landing?" "Nope." "Nevermind."

I have Dysautonomia/Long Covid-loud booming fireworks affect my heart. I can pass out if they are too nearby and our neighbors set them off illegally. I need to be in bed and medicate so I don't hit the ground. I use a heavy weighted blanket but I'll look up the stretchy body wrap ones, thanks!

When I was studying essential oils, we were told that cat's brains were wired differently than humans, dogs, and horses with respect to oils and that they were more sensitive and that some oils could even be toxic to them. I'm curious if there's an ingredient related to catnip in your beard oil.

HOW COOL IS THIS? A vaccine for honeybees? More likely than you think! Not only did the vaccine protect bees from a fatal BACTERIAL disease, it ALSO protected them against from a VIRAL disease spread by varroa mites! Now that’s a BUZZWORTHY solution! 🐝 Let’s talk about that! 🧪🧵⬇️

The Vermont legislature voted to provide this to school children after federal pandemic funding ran out. Not sure how long it will be renewed, but I'm proud of my little state. Athough we're way too small to be a Galactic Empire.

I played with my son when he was young. Now he works at a game store and he's trying to entice me back by building me a deck around Shadowfax from the LOTR set.
