That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

I swear at first glance you were telling us that JZ was up and had the zoomies.

Same! Also yay retirement! Pensions are good.

Lol the image of JZ and a bunch of surgeons gallivanting up and down the halls of a hospital with zoomies is cracking me up.

So I’m on this trial that is a study of ozempic vs a new drug vs both together vs placebo. I’m 100% certain I’m not on placebo, for starters—I’ve lost 15 pounds in like 5-6 weeks. But I stepped up the dose a bit over a week ago, and last weekend felt awful but hoped it was just the first dose….but this past weekend was so nauseated and puking. Overkill on the weight loss y’all!! Thankfully felt better yesterday and today but geez.

That's probably good data for someone, meara. But yikes, sorry you got hit with that.

This $1.29 frozen burrito is not super high quality nor immensely satisfying. Quelle surprise.

Yeah definitely had to call the site and let them know, the doc there is giving me some anti-nausea stuff and we’ll see if it helps this weekend—yesterday and today I’ve felt mostly fine so we’ll see after one more dose Friday if I need to go back down to the starting dose!

Our wings are not tired.

Ooof, I hope you are past the ick.

Hmmm, apparently Dominion and Fox have reached a settlement. Not sure what the terms were.

$788 million sounds like a lot of money, but is it a deterrent or whatever for Fox? I have no idea.

I don't want a settlement! I want Hannity dragged through the mud in court!

Dominion was suing for a billion, minimum, so I hope $788 million hurts FOX.

Likewise. Now we have to see what happens with the next lawsuit. Disappointed, again.
