There's a story on one of the medicine subreddits where a mom brought her kid to ER for whatever viral syndrome, refused vaccination because she objected to the toxins in them, and then asked the staff to watch her kid so she could go smoke.

I just got prescriptions from my GP for the pneumococcal and RSV vaccines because it turns out that I qualify. Anything I can get vaccinated for I do, because fuck antivaxxers.

I know someone who is a 60 year old smoker who went and lied to public health that she was a sex worker to get the MPOX vaccine, which makes me laugh, but i wouldn't mind it myself because you can get it touching surfaces.

I had one with a bottom freezer and also a side by side and hated them both. A traditional top door freezer really is the best.

It hospitalized my ex for 12 days. The side effects are real. He's in a class action suit against the company.

My ex was on it for diabetes, and it caused gastroparesis in him and he ended up hospitalized for 12 days. His digestion has never been the same, and he's in a class action lawsuit against the makers of Ozempic because it's a side effect that they didn't disclose.

As a fellow woman I have no idea either. I just feel like Gwyneth Paltrow is involved SOMEHOW by default.

"I can't fly the plane today, someone was doing some flogging and puppy play in the next room all night long, and the barking and screaming kept me up".

It's a really good idea to learn what narcissists and people with BPD are like, because being in a relationship with them is often life destroying, and learning to recognize the warning signs and get out once you begin to realize what they are is the key to not wasting your life on someone who has little regard for you as a human. People with BPD CAN improve, kind of, I still think you should be extremely leery of them, narcissists will wreck your life and make you think it's all your fault, without a qualm, and never improve because they don't care if they hurt you. They will both discard you and then try to lure you back in when they need their emotional "supply" or want something else from you. There is NOTHING you can do for a narcissist, so get out before they make it impossible for you to do so. It's definitely more of a buzz word these days, but if someone you are in a relationship with has chronically toxic and manipulative behavior to you, gaslights you, somehow makes everything your fault, lies, cheats, wrecks your finances, family relationships, etc, they are never going to change. This is not something that they have no control over, it's deliberate.

(BPD people can progress if they actually get a diagnosis and intensive therapy and have insight, but there's no question many of them wreck lives. I am sorry if you are a person suffering from BPD and I do wish for healing for you, it's very difficult, but people do have the right to protect themselves from destructive behaviour, and people have the right to say no to having someone with BPD in their lives who have hurt them irreparably and refuse to get help).

Something I've noticed is that when South Asian people refer to someone by their first and last name, they always say Smith, John, instead of John Smith.

Today in addition to Canada Day is also Inundation Day, where a controlled explosion destroyed the homes of 12 communities along the St Lawrence Seaway in 1958. The villages disappeared into St Lawrence Lake. This project captures stories of survivors and has aerial photos of what remains.
