Shoutout to all the unvaccinated Covid patients in the ICU, I have gotten to see friends and family three times since December 2019, I had to wait the longest of anyone in my family or friends to be vaccinated, and I live my life in fairly strict isolation but YOLO right?

[Mary @maryfduffy]

There at least 30 ICU beds left in Maine compared to no beds in some places so if my lupus flare gets any worse, I should have no issues getting treated.

there is a baby here, somewhere, who must have an earache, colic, or a broken femur based on the crying
