My liver’s perfect. My kidneys are divine. My glucose is… a little dramatic. We’re waiting on more tests. And I’m being very brave about it.

Sometimes I fantasize about disappearing.

Not dying.

Just logging off.

Getting a job no one cares about.

Growing tomatoes.

Writing poems in the margins of a notebook no one reads.

Not as a failure.

But as a kind of freedom.

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

When You're Bored, You're Being Shaped.

Boredom isn’t the absence of stimulation. It’s a test. Of what you reach for. Of what you default to.

Do you grab your phone? Or a pen? Do you scroll? Or sit with your thoughts? Do you numb? Or build?

Because what you do when you're bored becomes who you are when you're not.

Boredom is a doorway. To creativity. To clarity. To the things you keep avoiding.

Stop escaping it.

Top Veterinarian Drops Bombshell: ‘Animal Vaccines Are Designed To Euthanize Our Pets’
Deborah Weaver's avatar

I had talked to my vet about the dangers of the mRNA platform last year - in detail. After getting home this past summer and looking at the bill, I realized she had injected my mini labradoodle with an mRNA vaccine, in spite of my telling her the year before about my feelings about the platform. I realized she is injected with the COVID shots too and is probably dealing with lowered IQ like everyone else, and couldn’t even remember our prior conversation about it. How are we supposed to find a …

Is it required to have a Vet in America ?

Deborah Weaver's avatar

Yes, to get your dog an annual dog license, you have to get certain vaccines annually, plus you need miscellaneous treatments - for ticks, fleas, eye care, or what have you. Otherwise, you are not allowed to have dogs. I'm sure it varies by state laws.

You can find certain vets that still do titers . Also if you don’t leave your dog in commercial daycare, no one is checking what treatments or vaccines you give them except the initial series which are given in the first few months . After that you really don’t have to take them to a vet unless it’s an emergency situation

The issue is if you do have an emergency, that's when they demand proof of rabies vaccination or no treatment.

We have a homeopathic vet who partners with a local, privately owned clinic for emergencies. We’ve had no issues with our dog’s unvaccinated status. She passed last week (cancer), and she was treated well despite having no vaccinations for the past seven years…including rabies. I stopped paying the city’s licensing fees, as well. It’s hard to find the good ones, but they’re out there 💗.
