@nfl I’m finding it very hard to believe he didn’t report. You know they practiced this play all week. I have seen enough of this nonsense this year to say the fix has got to be in. SMH.

Time to continue my tedious task of taking the required inventory for our Big Move to Canada in the spring.

If news breaks, I'll post.

@GottaLaff I admire your organization and early start. I’d probably start cataloging the day before the move.

NEW: Rep Lauren #Boebert (R) will abandon her flagging re-election race in #Colorado's 3th Congressional District and run to represent the 4th Congressional District currently held by Rep Ken Buck. copolitics

@GottaLaff CO03 is a very conservative district. Sounds like the local Republicans pushed her out for fear of losing it.

I’m not looking to treat Mastodon like WebMD, but there are a lot of smart people on here, so I figured I'd see if I can find anyone who has any idea what's wrong with me.

Back in August, I got a cold. It wasn't COVID, but it was a sore throat, runny nose, and cough.

After about a week, everything was gone except a mild, dry cough (almost like a tickle) that makes me cough several times an hour.

My breathing has also been weaker since the start, but not terrible. I don't have a history of asthma and I really only notice when I intentionally try to inhale and realize my lungs don't appear to have the same strength or capacity they used to have.

After about two months, I went to the doctor to ensure all was well, but she was just like "Sometimes coughs linger. Here's a prescription for allergies and acid reflux in the event it's any of those things."

I don't have a history of either, but I was willing to try anything so I took everything for a month, but the cough never subsided. I also had a chest x-ray which looked normal.

It's now been 4 months with this dumb cough and I feel like a baby for complaining when it's not THAT bad, but still annoying to have had a cough for that long, especially during a time like COVID when everyone is on high alert.

I should note that whatever this is doesn't appear to be contagious because I've been coughing nonstop for four months and my husband never got sick.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this and/or what I can try to do to get this cough to subside?

TammyGentzel,
@TammyGentzel@awscommunity.social avatar

@Alice I would request a lung scan. If the doctor refuses, I would make it clear I will sue if something pops up that could have been treated if it had been found early on. And if the order is still not placed, I would insist my request be put in my file. Then I would find a doctor who will order one. Persistent, dry coughs (even mild ones) are often indicators of lung problems. If the lung scan came back negative, then I would look into other potential causes.

TammyGentzel,
@TammyGentzel@awscommunity.social avatar

@Alice No. It’s the same thing. (and you are NOT an idiot)

What, are they making up rules as they fo now? Barkley gets tripped, keeps moving forward, so when he hits the ground…all of him, I might add…and then the ball comes out, it’s a fumble???? WTF? @nfl

I used to believe if I properly prepared for all eventualities, I would control the outcome. Now I understand I must prepare myself to have the capacity to react and adapt in ways that are best for me no matter what the outcome.

    This feels horrible. Yet wonderful all at the same time. I worked with a chatbot to solve what I believe was a rather nuanced software problem. It understood everything and had the situation resolved within minutes.

    Apparently a very popular former president is somehow still in charge. Who knew?

    Via Brian Stelter:

    This "Obama is really running things" conspiracy theory presses many of the far right's buttons simultaneously, which is why Trump keeps repeating it, a la birtherism

    Aaron Rupar:

    Maria Bartiromo to Rep. Richard McCormick: "So who is running the show here? Does [Biden] know what's going on or is he being directed by President Obama?"

    TammyGentzel,
    @TammyGentzel@awscommunity.social avatar

    @GottaLaff Someone, as in a good reporter, needs to ask how that works. Hundreds of staffers and not one has leaked the “truth”? How do staffers get their assignments? How do they report to Obama?

    So I need to get a new dishwasher - any recommendations on brand/model? Reading reviews, especially negative reviews seems to eliminate all my choices 😂

    @thezenlady I have always found the small fee Consumer Reports charges for their reviews to be well worth the cost. They charge $10 for 30 days of access.
