Project Runway allows two men to bully and berate a female designer.

Meg was rightfully annoyed that the designer wanted to switch models at the last minute. She let her annoyance be known. Apparently, her feelings were not valid. Prajjé proceeded to accuse her of "yak, yak, yak" Typical misogynist response to a woman's emotions.

These assholes are going to sink Biden's agenda!

We voted overwhelmingly for Biden. We rejected trump and his agenda.

I'm a bad pet mother.

Due to Covid, I was reluctant last year to go into a vet's office to get my female shitzu-yorkie, Milan, spayed. After our old man miniature poodle Charlie passed away in June, we got a poodle-shitzu Cujo. The soonest we could get appointments for them to get fixed was in August.

So, we had an oops. Milan and Cujo are now the proud parents of 2 girls and 2 boys. Don't worry though. We're going to keep at least 2 of them and will definitely get them fixed. Milan will get spayed as soon as they are weened and Cujo was able to keep his appointment in August, so he is neutered.

They are shtizu-yorkie-poos.




Mama Milan:

My patient's dad tested positive. I am livid!

I am a private duty nurse and one of my medically fragile patient's parents are willfully unvaccinated. I broached the subject of vaccines a few weeks ago as the Delta variant was spreading. They did not give a specific reason why they weren't vaccinated, but it is part of my job to educate and I did and let it go.

I found out today that the dad who works in the public, was positive for Covid. I am so angry! Their 1 yo child is medically fragile and this disease could easily kill him. They have another child, 6 yo who is also at risk.

I have just had it. If this child gets sick and dies, I think CPS should be called. Stupid dumb assed idiots!! Gggrrrr!

I've turned into a horrible person and I hate it.

I am gripped with schadenfreude every time I hear of a public anti-vaxxer, anti-masker, covide denier being hospitalized with the virus. I don't revel in it, but am overwhelmed with feelings of satisfaction that I am sane. I am doing everything I can to do what is right for my community.

It saddens me that that these people are selling their souls, but I am so glad when these evil people are gone.

I'm a horrible person.

Anti-vax? Be prepared to pay more for insurance: Analysis

America’s covid-19 vaccination rate is around 60% for ages 12 and up. That’s not enough to reach so-called herd immunity, and in states like Missouri — where a number of counties have vaccination rates under 25% — hospitals are overwhelmed by serious outbreaks of the more contagious delta variant.


The vaccine resisters offer all kinds of reasons for refusing the free shots and for ignoring efforts to nudge them to get inoculated. Campaigns urging Americans to get vaccinated for their health, for their grandparents, for their neighbors, or to get free doughnuts or a free joint haven’t done the trick. States have even held lotteries with a chance to win millions or a college scholarship.

And yet there are still huge numbers of unvaccinated people. Federal, state and municipal governments as well as private businesses continue to largely avoid mandates for their employees out of fears they will provoke a backlash.

I am so angry!!

I am a private duty nurse for a very sick little boy. He has a severe metabolic disorder which causes seizures and his health is fragile. Poor little guy has a g-tube through which he receives his nutrition due to his swallowing issues and risk for aspiration pneumonia.

This little guy's mom is a hovering and "concerned" parent. She is always on top of his condition, his disease progress and therapeutic regimens. She is borderline munchausens by proxy.. Both parents are intelligent and educated.

BUT THESE MOTHEREFFERS WON'T GET THEIR VACCINATIONS!!!! THEY ARE PUTTING THIS ANGEL AT RISK AND I AM LIVID!

I have tried to educate them. My supervisor has tried to educate them. I am at my wits end with them. Just venting. Ugh, if he gets sick I am really going to be pissed off.

Got a surprise bonus from work today.

$750.00 Out of the blue! Just had to share my good news. Signed on to ADP to check my paycheck and in addition was my bonus!!

It couldn't have come at a better time as the back of my wooden privacy fence was rotten and we did not realize it. A neighbor frantically knocked on our door Saturday evening and told us that our dog had poked a hole through it and she was afraid they would get out and attack her children. I shored it up as best I could and we got it fixed on Monday after having to take out a payday loan.

So, there's my good news for the week.
