FFFC#134

What is my mood today? So many choices right here, easy as pie choices. I think since I found him at dinner last night using his handsome flirting head with a strange woman, my choice is on the right. Yes, a grimace should do as a warning😈

MLMM Wordle #256

It may seem there’s no crusade waiting to happen around the corner, no light at the end of this tunnel, no suspension of heartbreak for the loved ones perished in the last two years. Landmark brutality and false prophets have their foot on the pedal, trying to gorgonize their beliefs upon the ignorant. We will turn the page. We will ring the bells of hope and release their sound on the wind. The vicinage of the determined few will overpower the mendacious mob thinking they’re lucky. We shall overcome.

dVerse Poets – Groovy

Celebrating my 75th this week
I have to admit I could groove
With bell bottoms and chunky boots
Dancing to Midnight at the Oasis or
Arms flailing to the hully gully
Refusing the offered grass
For some homemade wine
Those were self indulgent days.

The Sunday Whirl

I cannot deny my wish for you. I want you to flutter out of that cage on a hanger, finish your dreams, and become the woman you want to be. Some stray cold reception as you try on life is expected. Just as a mother bird observes her first fledging falling from the tree’s nest, the womb remembers.

From NPR – Ivermectin😳🙄
Poison control centers are seeing a dramatic surge in calls from people who are self-medicating with ivermectin, an anti-parasite drug for animals that some falsely claim treats COVID-19.
According to the National Poison Data System (NPDS), which collects information from the nation’s 55 poison control centers, there was a 245% jumpin reported exposure cases from July to August — from 133 to 459.
Meanwhile, emergency rooms across the country are treating more patients who have taken the drug, after being persuaded by false and misleading information spread on the internet, by talk show hosts and by political leaders. Most patients are overdosing on a version of the drug that is formulated to treat parasites in cows and horses.
