You're running the risk of having to explain yourself. 🤣 😉

You weren't around when she was having a total meltdown over that broken thermometer. 🤣

At the end of the day, maybe it’s just like Canada; the symptoms are all the same. 🤷

We’ve been somewhat "lagging behind"... a keen observation on your part. 😁 Granted, hand_of_servant arrived after me—appearing, if I may be so bold, to be older and perhaps more cautious 🕺if not outright wiser
.
And who might this... honorable caller of my humble station be? "Anna four guns"?

Though, one who indulges in eating too much fish ought to keep an eye out for those Minamata warnings.

Here is something fitting. A truly beautiful specimen, one of those types... who steal your very breath away.



My thanks to the woman who serves as my inspiration.

Blanche, Blanche... honestly. I mean, just look at the crowd that's shown up here just to see you... c c c c c c ... 😁

I suppose you were also waiting for my blood to clot from that Pfizer shot, right? It’s been over a year now and I’m still standing. I guess this little bit of mercury exposure will affect me in much the same way.

Waiting is probably just a waste of time.

Who on earth introduced you to Claudia? I actually stumbled upon her in that thread about the USA and ended up defending her against someone, so she joined the discussion and just stuck around!

Maybe a little gratitude wouldn't hurt. You weren't even around back then; you were practically non-existent. ☕

I am absolutely loving this! Though, I guess I have to wonder... why on earth is Eric Weinstein appearing in the music video? (🤣)

Allow me... we have touched down... the wind at this altitude is quite something... several thousand feet up, though perhaps we were actually at ground level and simply didn't realize it. 🕺

One really ought to be careful about what one wishes for. 😁

It is true. Protomartyr might actually be the best example of "middle-aged white guys playing post-punk" out there right now.

This is my favorite album:

I was listening to this and immediately thought of Caitrion, who was a female friend I used to live with back in Dublin (well, I stayed at her place, technically), so I just had to put this track on. It’s honestly really good...

By the way, I was actually pretty surprised by Shirley Manson too; I always pictured her exactly how she looked back in the Queer days. But then again, being in your fifties is basically just like being in your forties now (or maybe even your thirties!), so I suppose not much has really changed. 😁

Jerry Robinson56 said:We're a little bit "behind the curve"... you definitely caught that. I guess you've got a sharp eye for those things. 😁 I suppose you could say that, actually. I suppose I should probably start by saying that I don't have much to add to the ongoing discussion, though I've been following it quite closely. It seems like everyone has such strong opinions on the matter, which is fine, I guess. Maybe I'm just being overly cautious, but I feel like there's a lot of nuance here that we might be overlooking in our haste to reach a conclusion. It’s interesting, really—how quickly things can escalate when people get passionate. I'll try to contribute something meaningful soon, if I can find the right way to frame my thoughts without sounding too repetitive. Just thinking out loud, mostly. He arrived after I did—it seemed to me, anyway—a bit older and perhaps a little more cautious than I am. 🕺 I suppose I could try to be a bit more wise about it, if that’s even possible. Maybe.

And who might that be... the most honorable caller to my humble little corner of the internet? Is it "Anna four pistols"?

I guess the person responsible for feeding the fish really ought to be a bit more careful, don't you think? Maybe they should just watch their step a little more closely. I was thinking about that Minamata hint earlier today... I guess there might be something more to it than meets the eye, though I'm probably just overthinking things. Maybe it's worth looking into a bit deeper? It feels like there could be a subtle lead tucked away in there somewhere.

Maybe you could take a look at this one; I’ve actually been reading up on that whole case lately. I usually try to avoid canned tuna, even though it’s honestly my absolute favorite thing to eat. But, I don't know, I feel like I've probably hit my lifetime quota already. Organic salmon seems like a much better way to go. It feels like things might be getting a little more intense lately, or maybe I'm just seeing it that way. It seems like the situation is becoming somewhat more dangerous, I guess. It’s just one, but in a metal form, I guess.

Linda King said:I am listening. I used to live with an American woman named Caitrion in New York—well, I stayed at her apartment—so I had to post this immediately. This is absolutely perfect.

And I might love Caitrion Balfe more than I should. 😍

That was actually my first time ever hearing that name, and now I've heard it again in a song. (And now a third time, Balfe. 😁).

Linda King said:I might actually look into this; I've read bits and pieces about the case. I generally avoid tuna even though I love it more than anything else, but I think I've met my lifetime quota. Organic mercury is far more dangerous than the kind found in metal form.

That’s a very temporal way of looking at it; aluminum is actually more hazardous to the brain... as far as I am aware, poultry fumes are dangerous, whereas the mercury itself isn't. Regardless, I will give this segment a watch.

At home, we have gone through so much Rio Mare (by far the best) that it hardly matters anymore; you never truly know what you're eating, yet we remain loyal for the sake of price and flavor. The same goes for tuna steaks... delicious.
Then there are the salmon fillets... lemon, cheese, wine, and as one noblewoman here suggests, one really ought to try it with kiwi.

And when I prepare pasta, sauce, or salad, using a random hard Thai cheese...
one must be careful with their fingers (not while grating, mind you).
Once you pair it with white wine, you stop worrying about anything at all. 😁
I have an excellent supplier; you can practically smell the grapes in the glass.

Regarding Pfizer, it is possible that blood viscosity increases, though whether that is permanent, I cannot say. There are too many question marks. Everyone in my circle had it, except for me—if one doesn't count those two days when things were "like that" while I was acting as a caregiver. 😁 As for the vaccine, I didn't feel a thing; truth be told, I was among the last to get vaccinated (others were already on their third or fourth dose) while I was still on my first.

Just when I needed some work, there you are. What would I do without you? I was expecting concern, not a coagulation issue—though I'm pretty sure that expectation met reality, if only for a few days. You earned it, I guess.

Linda King, since I know you're a big fan of Crowder, I wasn't sure if you'd caught all the recent drama surrounding him, but I figured you'd get a kick out of this video that basically lays out everything that's gone down over the last ten days or so.


You should definitely watch Endgame

Watch Endgame

P.s.
Honestly, I feel like that whole reconciliation between you and Jude was probably just a total sham because you two pretty much tore each other apart the second things got real.
Be friends. Spread love


P.s. 2
If YouTube Vanced is acting up on you, you might want to check out YouTube Vanced instead.

P.s. 3
So, are you planning on catching Trump on CNN? They've got Town Hall Live coming up. I swear, you can see the hosts practically biting their lips in anticipation while they announce the event.😁

Peace out

I’ve actually seen it—I caught that awkward little clip over on YouTube. I'm currently sitting here waiting for my YouTube Vanced patches to finish installing; it feels like it's taking forever, but I'm really hoping everything works out smoothly. I think there might be some new details tucked away in this video, too... maybe if I listen closely.

I honestly think any sort of truce between you and bluecyclist64 was just a temporary fix, maybe even a bit fake, because you two really went at it the very first chance you got.

...

So, like I said, it’s a peace treaty until next time... and honestly, no love, no peace... not anymore. 😛

Jesse Price said:Man, you really nailed it. I don't know what I'd do without you. I guess I was actually expecting some genuine concern rather than just talk about blood clotting, and honestly, I'm pretty sure that's exactly what happened, at least for a few days there. You definitely earned that one, I suppose.

Back then, AstraZeneca was such a boogeyman that I wasn't even worried for a second. Sorry, maybe better luck next time.
