 No flu shot either?  I started getting them yearly after the flu kicked my ass at 32.   Totally worth it, no one gives out awards for suffering through the flu for two weeks. 
 Oh right.  Thanks for the reminder.  So many people can go fuck themselves. 
 Love this. GN 
 Someone would have to propose marriage to her.  A lot of men aren’t looking forward to marriage or assuming responsibility, financial and otherwise, for a family. 
 What do you do when you are sick? Looking for natural remedies. #asknostr 
 Extra water, sit in the sunshine, gargle with warm salt water 4x a day.

 “It is unclear whether the devices were meant to convey that message, or to distract from the true motive in the fires.”  People who are disgusted with the government’s complicity with the genocide in Gaza would not interfere with the election - just not going to participate.

 the people untainted and influenced by the corporate information algorithms will have the advantage.

“If someone says it’s raining, and another person says it’s dry, it’s not your job to quote them both. Your job is to look out the fucking window and find out which is true.” -Jonathan Foster 
 girl are you a tuba?  ‘cause you’re getting played by a really weird dude. 
 Gm, I'm not here to support nostr, I'm here because a place like this is my natural habitat. 
 ditto.  it’s absolutely insane here and that works for me 🤷🏻‍♀️ 
 Wow.  Didn’t realize Cash App offered a savings account too. 🤯

“I love unmade beds. I love when people are drunk and crying and cannot be anything but honest in that moment. I love the look in people’s eyes when they realize they’re in love. I love the way people look when they first wake up and they’ve forgotten their surroundings. I love the gasp people take when their favourite character dies. I love when people close their eyes and drift to somewhere in the clouds. I fall in love with people and their honest moments all the time. I fall in love with their breakdowns and their smeared makeup and their daydreams. Honesty is just too beautiful to ever put into words.”

 Yes that should be apparent.  Everything else is disingenuous. 
 Better than CNN.  But still, it’s agenda- filtered.

 Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter—tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther. . . . And then one fine morning— So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

 I’m a fan ⚡️🐈

 admire your discipline- seems awful to me 
 Please don’t do this again 🤣. Here I am worried that you’re dying of self imposed thirst.  Please let us know if you’re drinking water again. 
 No filter, but the camera picks up the colors more vividly than the naked eye.

 twitter/ X is still so great for extreme weather events (except for the psychos who think it’s fun to post fake or old videos or photos to mislead others about what’s going on) 
 really crazy that our politicians don’t don’t do the simplest thing to do interviews with fol... 
 If you’re talking about the U.S., honestly don’t think politicians care about what the public thinks except for reasons of motivation and manipulation - generally the public has common sense and somewhat agrees.  The political side-ism is a false construct.  Besides, our elected politicians are just a small fraction of our actual government. 
 Need to lose 30 pounds. 

Pros and cons of the cocaine and cigarettes diet? 
 Really?  Butter and salt? 
 Beef and eggs, sure.  Protein burns slower and keeps you satiated for a longer time …. not sure how butter & salt could help with weight loss besides in very small amounts for taste. 
 I just can’t stand how gross I feel eating lots of meat, salt or butter, and I’m primarily instinctive about diet.  But that said I’m not afraid of higher fat meats.  I think different people have different dietary preferences and needs.  But yes, sugar is bad. 
 I think we are on the same page 🙃 
 #asknostr I’m singing Karaoke tonight…any suggestions?

 Are we talking about my husband here? 🤣🤣 
 She’s good but the lyrics are so ugly… ordering ppl to wake up and get their tits and dicks sucked like she’s Sean Combs
