Anyone struggle to move on?

I had flu in April 2025. It turned into bronchitis. A few weeks later I was diagnosed with uterine cancer. I had surgery a few days after I had finally stopped coughing. Was recovering from surgery when they recommended radiation. The radiation was supposed tu be easy but it really hit me hard. I'm still very tired. Anyway now I have the flu again. I have done my best to get strong but at this moment I'm really, really discouraged. I know this is a bad flu but I've spent the better part of 4 days in bed and I'm just limp. My chance of cancer reoccurance is pretty low and I feel like I should be happy but I've got nothing.

It's a long explanation but has anyone else struggled after treatment? I'm not bouncing back...

Somebody check my logic

We know Russia tried to hack Signal at some point. Suppose they succeeded.

I think trump himself and at least 3 cabinet members on this signal chat are either very sympathetic towards Russia, Russian assets or actual Russian spies.

Suppose they WANT Russia to have access to our military planning.

Wouldn't it be convenient to use a commercial platform that you know Russia has access to, than go through the risk of setting up some other way to leak important information? If they get caught it's just a whoopsie thing and not espionage.

NSFW from the Netherlands

I've never tried to post something from YouTube so (1) I hope it works and (2) I hope it's legal to share.

Be sure to bit l note the flags in the video, though I think it's pretty obvious.
