Joe Biden @JoeBiden
Justice Sotomayor warned us in her dissent that, based on the majority decision, Trump could take out his opponents, take bribes, and lead a coup while president—and be immune to being held accountable.
He really could become the dictator that he promised to be on day one.
I was just asked to blow up balloons for this event. Absolutely not.
I’ve never been more grateful for my latex allergy.
(Also per policy, latex balloons aren’t allowed in the hospital which I think this nurse should be aware of. But here we are.)
It’s not that I am pooh-poohing this thing. It’s that I’m exercising my right to not be a part of it… and I would rather not use my epi-pen for it.
Not here for anyone’s nonsense today.
Maskers gonna Mask. MYOB, lady.
One of my maskless coworkers (a vocal non-believer in masks 🙄) was grilling another usually maskless coworker this morning about the mask she chose to wear today due to her sinus infection.
We made eye-eye contact for a tense second. Try me, sis.
She did not.
I continue to wear a #mask for myriad reasons (my kid’s asthma, people are gross, the cancer patients I work with, my coffee breath is preferable to the other aromas floating around the hospital and other places, my personal satisfaction to be able to mouth profanities, the air of mystery and intrigue that comes with my coworkers never having seen my full face, et al.)
But my favorite reason is that I want others who continue to #maskup, for their own reasons, to know they’re not alone.
It’s too early for this hair clip to be burrowing this deep in my damn skull. 😮💨
The chaplain is coming today to perform a marriage ceremony for one of our dying patients.
Word on the unit is: the patient is now non compos mentis barreling toward needing a 1:1 patient companion. (There was a marriage license finagled some days ago.)
I want (less than) zero part in this. Not even decorations or a slice of cake.
Also it will be the patient’s 5th marriage.
Woof.

@MotherDucker @AskTheDevil My dentist does root canals, nightguards, implants, crowns all in-house. Excellent work. All the pain relief I need.
He crowned one of my teeth, but I developed issues. He said it needs a root canal. Come to find it has fractures running down into the roots. Super fine. X-rays didn't catch that. He had to pull it. Dude felt TERRIBLE. I got an implant but didn't have to pay for another crown or even the partial RC or pulling.
So, good ones still exist. Hard to find.

@mims @MotherDucker They will be praying for me to finally pass away.
I have all sorts of work I'd like to see our congresspeople and other elected officials get to.
I'm quite ready for us all to fire the ones who up until now have been more worried about big campaign support from the wealthy and industry than in fighting the far right or getting people healthcare, equal rights, or saving the planet.
The Republicans are evil, they're effective, they're using power for evil.
We need good.

I think most of it is certainly straight up fraud. / jmo

For starters, maybe scratching at my teeth with hardened steel picks might possibly not be good for them! What kind of racket is this?
I had a wisdom tooth that needed out, and the dentist wanted to wait until I'd had all my teeth cleaned. 3 out of 4 cleanings in, it abscessed and had to be pulled anyway - by an oral surgeon!
What the fuck does a dentist even do any more?
The one dentist who even cleaned my teeth _themselves_ accidentally injected my facial nerve and almost maimed me.

Do dentists do anything any more, besides making their staff clean your teeth, and referring you to more specialized practitioners?
I have a cavity. I want it filled. I do not want multiple sessions of teeth cleaning. To begin with, I'm pretty sure that's how I got the fucking cavity.
Fuck's sake.
I keep having dentists clean my teeth until there's no coverage left, then having to wait a year for coverage, then having them say they want to clean my teeth first.
FFUUUCK!
Just bought three fanny packs for the upcoming trip to Cedar Point.
This is going to go either swimmingly and everyone will be very minimally burdened and happy…
or I will be wearing 3 fanny packs. 😅
Coffee and bagel and my babe watching Bluey. Not a bad start.
Good morning 🌅🌻
