Looking at the weather map online and there are storms in the vicinity, but like all the rest of the rain this year it looks like they will just miss us or dissipate before they get here. We are seriously hurting for rain but I admit to being a bit afraid of what will happen when storms do make it through because there is potential for some really bad weather.
Anyone know anything about OFS Healthcare? These are the people that bought and then closed both hospitals in this area leaving us with no emergency care closer than 30 minutes away. They also took most of the doctors with them. Just received notice from my insurance that the quack I was seeing was no longer participating with them. Not that I planned on going back to him after getting a bill for $124 copay and two years of him not asking or answering much of any questions.
#Oceangate This sums up the anger and antipathy many of us have been feeling. It's not a lack of empathy. It's that this whole debacle is a metaphor for something much larger.
I just hit up the donor box.
I have a proposition for y’all.
If one or more of you donate, leave a comment so I can see it, I’ll match up to $250, on top of what I just donated - and of course I neglected to add my name (but you can tell because I got mushy)…
Please go show some love. And go PRO while you’re at it, m’k? 😉
Ready?
Set…
Gooooooo!
Why must women plead for justice when it comes to rape? Why did it take going to the AP for this police department to finally pursue criminal charges long after the rapist fled the area, possibly fled the country?
Why are women still third rate citizens in the eyes of those who are supposed to protect us?

My neighbor works for the public housing facility in the neighboring town. The hospital that just close had a senior living facility, she just told me the owners lied to these seniors and told them they had been placed at the top of the list to get into the public housing faculty where my neighbor works. They hadn’t, that cannot be done because it’s illegal. So these seniors were lied out of their homes so the assholes who sold the hospital and senior living facility could make their money.
I have a request of the Veterinary Medicine profession.
Can someone please make prescription medication for cats that doesn't require trying to cram it down their throats? Pills are incredibly difficult to get cats to eat: mine doesn't like the taste. Dogs have Heartguard chewables that my puppy LOVED!
I have pain pills & antibiotics my cat is supposed to take after having a procedure for urinary blockage. Tried every trick: tuna, butter, cheese, wet food, etc. He knows & won't eat them!
A good friend of mine, and a journalist was found guilty of trespassing today after filming a brutal sweep of #homeless people in the no longer cool city of #Asheville, NC. They aired their footage of #policebrutality and use of #excessive force as well as #propertydamage to the camp online. As they have been found guilty their own footage is inadmissible in court and their reputations have been tarnished. Also, hey, #boycottasheville? - a sad ex #AVLnative. Please boost! https://wlos.com/news/local/asheville-journalists-found-guilty-of-trespassing-during-homeless-encampment-coverage-aston-park-protest-matilda-bliss-veronica-coit
A coworker lost her home today to fire. She and her husband had been homeless and living at the motel just outside of town and had just moved into this house. The neighbor’s house caught fire and spread to their home and the home on the other side. Sometimes it seems people just can’t catch a break, but at least they and their dog are all safe. I’m sure the Red Cross will help and another coworker is going to start a GoFundMe for them.
Twitter exile, I think I hurt Elon’s feelings. Pug mom, cat mom, used to be a Rott mom but getting too old to wrestle the big dogs. Love all animals.
