Follow me here, y'all. I'll stay on X for a bit longer but my new home is in the sky.

My office building has been having the side door open so construction guys can bring in stuff and it's blowing a super cold breeze... I'm about to chime in with a "haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door"

I can't hang out today, I'm too busy "holding space" for my anxiety and depression

Have you ever watched a baby die of pertussis? I have. Several.

This is what it looks like:
A newborn baby can’t stop coughing. They can’t catch their breath and they can’t eat. They get dehydrated and stop peeing. They sometimes have pauses in their breathing. Parents are terrified so they come to the ER.

In the ER, labs show they have a dangerously high white blood cell count. Their blood has become thick from the white blood cells and doesn’t travel through organs like it should. Less oxygen gets delivered to vital organs. They start to seize. Imaging reveals they had a stroke. They can’t pump blood to their lungs and body.

A breathing tube gets placed in their trachea. They get put on a ventilator. A plastic catheter is placed in their veins and arteries to give them medicine and measure blood pressure.

If they are lucky, they can make it to a #PedsICU that provides #ECMO, or full heart lung bypass. They are attached to machines that take over all their body functions.

But it’s too late. Their hands and feet turn black because they can’t perfuse their bodies. Their faces turn grey/green. They won’t stop seizing from the brain injury.

They are attached to too many machines to hold while alive and parents lay their bodies on top of them and cry until they fall asleep then cry again.

There is nothing to do but stop the machines. Antibiotics to treat pertussis were given but were no match for the infections effects on a newborn baby.

Parents finally hold their baby after the machines have turned off and their baby is cold and lifeless.

Is this what you want? This is what RFK Jr will bring to American families.

Whatever you do, do NOT repost this - it would make Trump suuuuuper mad. Like ketchup-throwing mad.

So when the Dept of Education is done for, that means my student loans are as well, right?

[Running on Fumes @neurocentricx]

@kyylien Do you also call it SUV occasionally? Because my mom did that once and it's how I reference it always, haha

[Running on Fumes @neurocentricx]

I'm actually kind of thankful I'm bisexual. I changed all my dating app preferences to women only. I no longer want to even entertain the idea of dating men, though my history has mainly been of me in heterosexual relationships. My church will disown me, but I don't really care.

[Running on Fumes @neurocentricx]

I literally cried twice in my 20 minute drive to work.

[halli ⸆⸉ 𓆙❤️‍🔥 @inthevault_]

Greatest country in the world?? Why is every woman I know crying on the way to work today???

[Running on Fumes @neurocentricx]

I have always wanted kids. Always. I guess now I won't be able to have them because our politicians would rather have women die than allow a procedure that saves lives. They're not pro life. They're pro birth.

[Running on Fumes @neurocentricx]

I've now added the anxiety of asking someone out and waiting for their response. Anxiety in triplicate.

[Running on Fumes @neurocentricx]

My regular anxiety and my election anxiety are doing a fucking waltz right now.

Hey, uh @CNN @MSNBC y'all gonna report on this?

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Trump on Liz Cheney: “Let's put her with a rifle standing there with 9 barrels shooting at her. Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face."

[Running on Fumes @neurocentricx]

It's actually not a sin to vote Democrat. Nowhere in the Bible does it actually say that. Twisting the act of sin to fit a narrative is speaking incorrectly of the Lord... and there are many places in the Bible where that is discussed.

[Dale Partridge @dalepartridge]

Extra clarity:

“But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything.” -Ephesians 5:24

Now, submission does have limits. A wife doesn’t need to submit to her husband in sin (in this case voting democrat). In such cases, she submits to her heads’s Head—Christ. But outside of clear accounts of sin, she ought to conform and be one with her husband in all things.

“And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.” -Mark 3:25
