My digestion is so shot by the excess bile acids, I try to use non gut route to absorb things.

I just hope he stays social, bless him! My Papillon was very social until about 2 yo? Then started to be grumpy. Now? He detests toddlers and will bark incessantly at them in public.

It’s an extra expense. And I get hives from certain types of medical tales, so I try to avoid. I actually prefer buccal route of dosing - why can’t I have a mouth spray like my Vitamin D supplement?

It’s easier to ‘track’ her on her usual iPhone - and she tracks me. My phone died as my friend was driving me home on a day out - my kid was like ‘we thought you were dead in a ditch on the motorway’. Nope, dead battery only!

I haven’t started HRT (just raw dogging this shit now for 10 years!) but I also hate patches. I’m going to ask for the gel/cream version as I’d rather lay naked for 5 mins to let it dry instead of stupid patches.

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.

I grounded my 14 yo kid like this last summer. I bought her a new version of the Nokia Brick and disabled the browser. So we could still contact each other.

Archaeologists Find Homer’s Iliad Papyrus Inside a Mummy in Egypt - GreekReporter.com Archaeologists found a rare Iliad papyrus inside a Roman-era mummy in Egypt, highlighting the spread of Greek culture.

Gold and copper tongues found in mummies, also gold leaf, and Book 2 of the Iliad. These Roman era Egyptian mummies are historically and culturally significant themselves, but also show the sharing of cultures in the Roman period in Egypt.

According to @3wombats.bsky.social The original creators sold out to 4+20, which probably explains the vending machine pies. I presume there was some Govt kick backs / Grants for developing ‘healthier’ options.

The Point Live: Gas, politics and the coming budget. All the day's events, live Welcome to a special edition of The Point Live, as we cover off the first day of the Senate’s Select Committee on the Taxation of Gas Resources, as well as take a look at what is shaping up in the bud...

Susan McDonald had a bit of a cry for the gas companies saying that they really do pay a lot of tax. I decided to have a bit of a fact check on that

The AI age is the "age of no consent" "Inevitability" means design decisions are no longer informed by user needs; now they are unilaterally imposed. The users are the ones being designed.

Users hate AI. So tech made it mandatory. Even if you don't use it, it pollutes what you read and how systems make decisions. The computer's hallucinated word is final.

And it needs all of your data to do it.

In the age of no consent, UX exists to normalized complete acquiescence to surveillance:

Ah, I can see where it went wrong then. Corporates buying ‘health washing’ to cover for their other products that are higher fat content. Very precocious of 4+20 to see the opportunity to cloak itself in noble ideals!

You are responsible for this program? 🤣 I think I paid extra to upgrade from the sandwiches. We had a small rural school and no tuck shop. Munch and Crunch orders held such promise and delivered disappointment.

They were whole meal pastry and chicken with peas and carrot inside. Bugger all gravy, mind. That might make them palatable.

In the 70's the Government owned Energy, it built houses, it owned Public Services and it employed people.

Now billionaires own it all, and they pay you too.

So every year prices go up more than wages.

It's not complicated why things are only getting worse.

It's billionaires

*shuddered* Just had a flash back to the hideous ‘Munch and Crunch’ school meal pies we used to get sometimes in Primary School in the 80’s.

It’s not media cluelessness – it’s cowardice and complicity But there’s another word starting with “C” that describes some journalists: courage.

Confronted with an authoritarian president, the media can no longer claim cluelessness. The threat is obvious. Journalists can be cowardly, complicit or courageous. Unfortunately, the dinner hosts of the White House Correspondents’ Association are all out of courage.

FCC chair Brendan Carr, who has threatened to revoke the licenses of broadcast outlets whose Iran war coverage displeases him, plans to attend the White House Correspondents’ Dinner as a guest this Saturday.
The suck-up media will never learn: When you invite fascists to dinner, they devour you.

The Jerusalem Cross is a symbol of the Crusades. Disingenuous people argue it’s “just a representation of Christianity and not bigoted”

But we all fucking know the Crusades was about massacring anyone that wasn’t Christian.

Pete Hegseth has a HUGE one tattooed on his chest

It’s a symbol of hate.
