Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Goodness, my friend replied with "I trust my body more than the CDC, FDA, or drug companies." Dude, the CDC compiles data on real illnesses. It's not about trying to convince you of something about your body.

I'm not going to argue the point, though, because he seemed to acknowledge that drugs are useful in some instances. I'll take the win.

My husband refuses to get a flu shot. I am retaliating by playing all of the news programs I can find about how bad the flu season is and how people should get a goddamn flu shot.

I actually haven't gotten one in years, mostly out of laziness, and herd immunity has saved my ass from the flu. But I'm concerned enough about this year's outbreak that I'm going to find a flu shot today.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Gris, I am so sorry. Much peace and strength to you.

I need to go away for a weekend. This next month is going to be rough. A cabin in the mountains sounds both wonderful and terrifying.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I trust my body more than the CDC, FDA, or drug companies.

That doesn't even mean anything!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That doesn't even mean anything!

It means WAKE UP SHEEPLE THE CDC IS IN THE POCKET OF BIG PHARMA!

I think. It might be the other way around.

I know, right? I don't care if he personally chooses to eschew medication, but...I trust my body, too, yo. That has nothing to do with (1) the utility of medication in certain disease states, or (2) the CDC tracking data about factual illnesses happening.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I just got an email from the government of Nunuvut - specifically, Kivalliq School Operations - regarding relocation to Rankin Inlet. To which I say 1) no thanks and 2) I suspect you have the wrong email.

Yeah, me too. Both my sister & my mother are sick, and I can't avoid them indefinitely.

Also, what's this about dog vibrations?
