having a hell of a health week. threw up Sunday night, booster side effects Monday and Tuesday, felt good yesterday day but developed a very painful stomachache last night. wtf is going on?

[neurp @neurp]

I'm still pro vaccine but it does seem ridiculous that I was feeling perfectly fine before getting the booster and now I feel like I have the flu. I purposely made myself sick to prevent myself from maybe getting more sick.

For rural America, it’s not enough to subsidize them, and get mail, internet, and healthcare to places the market would leave behind, but apparently you also must pretend that’s not happening lest you hurt their feelings.
And this, supposedly, is the attitude that respects them.

good Sunday! brunch with friends, drinks, print fair, art show, last bookstore, tacos, and more!

Texas Gov Greg Abbott is choosing to send DNA kits to schools that parents can use to identify their children’s bodies AFTER they’ve been murdered rather than pass gun safety laws to proactively protect their lives.

ugh, why do we vote on judges? how many people actually do the research? i internet search these people and basically don't know why i do. i rarely find anything interesting, which is good i guess.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

UPDATE: US Railroads rejected a new sick leave proposal from the third largest rail union, which would have required them to provide workers with 7 paid sick leave days.

Workers currently have 0 paid sick days.

The union described the carriers' rejection as “totally asinine."

A daughter of immigrants in Los Angeles’s Chinatown, Wong rose to become the first Asian American film star in Hollywood. When she died in 1961, The New York Times called her "one of the most unforgettable figures of Hollywood’s great days." https://t.co/mwe0tBpyIO

Anna May Wong, a Hollywood film star who had a trailblazing career, will be the first Asian American featured on U.S. currency. The U.S. Mint on Monday will begin producing quarters with her image. https://t.co/EG9aRoET5Z

"Think of what that money [spent on military projects] could be used for - to educate, to help, to bring people up to a sense of self-confidence, to improve not just the happiness of people in America, but their economic standing...We are using money for the wrong stuff."

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

While over 60% of Americans now live paycheck to paycheck, three people own more wealth than the bottom half of American society. Got that? That's 1, 2, 3 people with more wealth than the bottom 165 million people.
