I kind of trickled the news out on various people’s threads, that I was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. Not invasive, scary nonetheless. Two MRI biopsies and one lumpectomy later, the surgeon called to say the pathology report showed CLEAR MARGINS!! Cancer gone. Whew!

😬While I have and use an iPad...from 2018, mind you-- my phone is a Samsung Galaxy S8. It works very well. I don't really understand the clamor for a bright shiny new one every few months. I bought this one used/unlocked. As long as it holds a charge I will hold onto it.

Fire him. He only wrote this because he was called on the carpet by her parents and the wider community. He made this young woman cry in his office, shaming and tormenting her and saying her behavior was evil. He absolutely should not be allowed to treat teenagers that way.

I can NOT like this comment enough. As a Marine veteran, I was absolutely gobsmacked by this pettiness. It slapped back, though, luckily. Thank you for saying is so well!
@goodfriendraf
Yes. Recent horror stories from Canada about M.A.I.D there have chilled me on it. Mostly because the people using it COULD be helped with home healthcare, subsidized housing, coordinated medical treatment. A few disabled people “chose” to die due to govt. stonewalling.

As a high school teacher, the lockdown drills destroy me. I am a vigilant, protective person—would place myself blocking the door. I tried to be ready and know all the plans. That crap caused nightmares for ME…imagine the poor students, imagine the 1st graders…

I made it 27 years, but I feel your pain. Teaching is not for the faint of heart. Years of poverty; extra jobs. Only paid off my loans at 45. Marriage was the only reason things eased up. My husband helped so much with the burden. How anyone would want to teach now is beyond me.

This haunts me. Millions to move poor refugees that had been lied to for a political stunt. He could have rallied funds to charter similar planes or even buses to evacuate people to safe places.

Yes. I feel like I live on another planet. This morning on NPR, there was a program lamenting “chronic absenteeism” in schools nationwide, and though they mentioned “the pandemic” in past tense…they never spoke of Long Covid or chronic illness being a cause.

As a fellow retired teacher, thank your mother and her colleagues! I am glad to hear this. Our union here in Jefferson County, Colorado, along with many parents and interested citizens, was able to recall a Koch brothers installed right-wing board that was wreaking havoc. ✊🏽

My brother-in-law is 62 and diabetic. He was quickly getting worse in his first week. Soaring blood sugar, plummeting blood ox levels. My sister moved heaven and earth to get him an infusion. It was not easy. Seems many docs just don’t know. He felt better in 36 hours!

As a Colorado high school history teacher, we continue to teach ALL the truths of history. Not restricted here. I am gonna continue to teach about colonialism, exploitation of resources, enslavement of human beings and the struggles of the enslaved and other marginalized people.

@crazygingerlady
Amazing news! Coincidentally, I had a lumpectomy on the 27th for early stage breast cancer and I also just got a surgeon call saying pathology showed clear margins! Isn’t that the best news to get my friend? So happy for you and me both!
@chrislhayes
I taught high school World and US History for 27 years in CO. I never, ever taught, "They didn't know any better". Nor did any of my colleagues. Students were challenged to think critically and draw conclusions about accountability. Damn I get tired of defending my colleagues...

Its hopeless now...that kitty is yours forever, just like our little stray, Folly, who we found underneath our porch. Our little "bug eater" is beloved by our dog Juno, now. It was Juno who found her!

I retired from teaching high school last year. I still have nightmares about the drills and will not sleep well tonight. Every shooting kills my soul a bit more. How can we keep on with this doing nothing?

@Sandyboots2020
Well, duh. I retired to avoid Covid after 2021. Managed to avoid it while kids and staff were masking, and I had HEPA and windows in my classroom. (High School) But precautions were melting away. So I retired a year earlier than I originally planned. Glad I did. Many with LC now.

I also have not updated. It is still the Bird App. for me, but this latest "likes" fiasco has managed to push out EVEN to we who never updated. Bummer.

He and his friends were simply wearing keffiyahs as scarves…that’s it. They had been visiting his grandmother. The shooter was a neighbor. I have no idea if he knew Hisham was Palestinian American, but he shot because he hated.
This nurse practitioner is named Theresa Smigo and she works at the Philly Pregnancy Center. This sort of treatment is appalling. She should NOT be treating patients.
This is how Black women experience maternal mortality at such high rates. And, why is this nurse second guessing the doctor? Furthermore, what business is it of this nurse IF the patient doesn't want to work during her pregnancy?

@MarkHarrisNYC
BA2 has arrived. More contagious than original Omicron. All variants offer less immunity to this strain. Waning vax immunity. Now at 46% or so. More movement and fewer masks. Look at Denmark, Belgium. We need a new, variant specific booster.

Libraries obtain multiple streaming licenses, more than 1 person at a time may listen to audiobooks. You can also have multiple cards if you live in a metropolis. I have 5, for various library systems nearby. FAR superior to Spotify or Audible. I volunteer and donate! Value.

Prairie dresses were done SO much more beautifully and with delicacy and detail during my teen years in the '70's. Jessica McClintock's Gunne Sax looked nothing like these shapeless things!

, you should. She will transport you with her beautiful tales of animals who are sentient, lovely beings. Buy her book, Reynard the Fox as well!
22nd Day. Before the household stirred, whilst it was still dark, Old Fox went downstairs & lit the fires & the range. Then he made some tea & took it out with him to the garden & waited with the birds for the light. And it came, over the distant downs, beaten thin as gold.

@DrTomFrieden
Covid is NOT similar to flu in the amount of PASC. Vascular, brain and other long term symptoms. Long Covid belies that "like the flu" statement. Needs to be more known.

In his prologue, describing hobbits he described three varieties of hobbits. Fallowhides, Stoors and Harfoots. “The Harfoots were browner of skin, smaller, and shorter, and they were beardless and bootless…”— that is a quote.

He shot them because he thought they were Palestinian…because they were wearing keffiyahs. I don’t know if he ACTUALLY knew any of them, but he shot them because of who he thought they were.

Neuroimaging study reveals significant brain changes in areas associated with language comprehension, cognition, and circadian rhythm control six months after COVID-19 infection.
Totally mild right ?
@LauraLoomer
You said yourself that this started "around Covid". You posted in September of last year that you were very sick with Covid at that time. Parosmia (weird smells) and anosmia (lack of smell) are two of the most reported symptoms resulting from Covid.

Extremely disappointed that, handed the microphone, you decided to platform Trump. Calling him “President” and failing to push back.
