Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
I think the Queen has gotten frailer since her dear husband died. I think they had a true love.

Have never been able to distinguish between partly cloudy and mostly sunny.
Lol.
BTW, what is the temperature there? (I could google but I'm lazy LOL)
Search for Santa Monica, CA live webcams-there'll be sun!
Be encouraged.
(Thanks to CWillie for teaching me about the live webcams the world over.)
She is a remarkable Monarch! Saw her in her beautiful pale blue dress today, the anniversary of her ascension to the throne, but also the date of her father, the King's death. She was on her feet though! Carry on!
I am reminded of the photos of residents at the AL, all dressed up in Hawaiian shirts and Lei's for an event. My sister wrote, LO was more like 'propped up' in wheelchair, not doing as good as pictured.
BTW, it was a year later that he died. We never know.
hug!!
i do realize that the laughing comes from the movies.
you had said you found many good movies for her.
but still -- it's you and your family, who organized/found the movies that work, to make her happy/smile/laugh :).
great about your son!!
laughing so hard that ones cries...great!
:)
i'm smiling as i type to you :).
bundle of joy :)
i wish us all well :).
i'm thinking about various attacks recently, on people's messages...
sometimes even intentionally "misunderstanding", so as to put someone on the defensive...
intentionally putting words into someone's mouth they never said...
example:
A: this is - sometimes - a good solution.
B: you just said it's always a good solution. it's not always a good solution!!!!!!
another example:
A: maybe you feel bad because...
B: you just said it's wrong for me to feel bad!!!!!

i think unfortunately, also on this website, some people enjoy creating conflict, or antagonizing someone, or trying to provoke, etc...
-----
it's unfortunate (whenever/wherever this happens), but on this particular website, so many of us are already going through tough times (obviously). so that makes these attacks EVEN more unnecessary, unkind.
-----
it is ok for us all to have different opinions.
let's not attack someone, just because their opinion is different.
there are kind ways of stating one's opinion, and "attacking" ways.
-----
also, we can (me too), be humble to realize that even though we realllly believe something, that doesn't mean it's necessarily true. it might really turn out, someone else's opinion was 100% right.
(that goes for anything...views on vaccines, facilities...best dinner recipes!)
:)
(actually, regarding dinner recipes, as you all know...don't follow my example. i continue eating Twix).
-----
i wish us well!
i see so much love in so many people here.
:)
as i mentioned recently, some people i just want to hug :).
like geaton.
:)
geaton...you manage to make your aunt belly-laugh :).
amazing :).
it's not easy to make anyone belly-laugh...let alone an elderly, sick LO.
i'll find a way to make my parents belly-laugh too!! :) :) :)
have a great saturday, everyone!!! :) :) :) :)
I have yet to hear a single person have his or her mind changed one whit by anything that is said by anyone else. It must be a sign of increasing age and shortening temper that I rarely get to the end of the program without switching off nowadays, but maybe "oh turn it off for heaven's sake" is as good a solution as any?
PS Ohdeargod I just checked and there are 285 episodes available to download. Maybe they could use them to supplement white noise in interrogation suites.
One of the rudest forms of argumentative comments are when one person says, for example, "I feel bullied", and the next person says "No one is being bullied".
It gets so very tiring, and is boring.
When my dH does this, I increase his dosages of Vit D 3; Sublingual B-12; and Magnesium. All good supplements for clearing up the mind and rude behaviors.
Tell all the thousands of people who have lost loved ones to covid before the vaccinations were even being offered that the covid vaccination is just a big money grab? I'm sure if a vaccination was still in the works some people who are anti vax would be criticizing the powers that be for not getting one out yet. Demanding there be one and would be the first in line waiting for one.
How hard is it to pull your vaccination papers out of your wallet? Big whoop!
I've got a sore arm from my shingles and flu shots, but feel okay otherwise.
It's been a long boring day in the hospital.
Meanwhile, we've got four members of the team off work because they've tested positive. YD has only just got back to teaching school (tested + the week before, had to self-isolate until Monday); OD tested + yesterday, is feeling a bit rough, fortunately she's on maternity leave so no loss to the workforce, her husband is negative. We're all getting very very tired.
read my original comment
I feel bullied when my job tells me if i dont get vaccinated by X date that i will be fired.
I feel bullied when I can't go into a restaurant or other place of business without showing my vaccination papers as is the case in some states and countries. I feel bullied when I question the official narrative and my posts are deleted or censored.
I feel bullied when the media keeps blaming and demonizing the unvaccinated as the reason this pandemic is still around. When the truth is that this virus spreads just as freely and easily among the vaccinated.
Should I go on?
As to CWillie getting tired if the minority shouting down the majority that made me LOL since the entire world has been shouting down reasonable holes in the entire covid, mask wearing and vaccine hysteria that us happening. One such instance is the fact that the CDC is now saying cloth masks do not offer protection from covid and tge reason the govt started giving free k95 masks. What have people been doing for 2 tears wearing those cloth masks? Why with the number of vaccinations increasing are hospitals still overwhelmed? Either the media is lying by omission of the truth - which is a strong possibility since they received govt money in 2021 or something else is going on.
When you have a country like canada that is 80% fully vaccinated and cases and hospitalzations keep going up a reasonable person might want to stop and question the official narrative. Yet they seem to be doubling down on the vaccination frenzy and fear. The real question is what is in those vaccines that they want to inject even 6 month old babies with them now.
Doing the math, with about 80% vaccinated, the rate of hospitalization of the vaccinated is much lower than of the rate of hospitalization of the 20% unvaccinated.
Your chances of being hospitalized are much lower if you are vaccinated.
