My heart breaks for all survivors of sexual assault and abuse. I am so sad that our country is failing them when they need us most. Doctors must be able to give people the medical care they need, when and where they need it.

United Healthcare earned 5.4 billion in profit last quarter. This is false equivalency at its finest and the exact narrative insurance companies like to push. “But what about doctor salaries??” Please, we actually serve an important function that has real value in society.

Well, my wife gave in to anonymous-neighbor peer pressure and made me trim the bushes. So much for waiting until October. 🤦 #badguyswin

Dropped in on the local butcher today and he shouts, "Hey, you hungry? Try this." Hands me a new sandwich to test for their menu...sliced filet, caramelized onion, cheddar, and horseradish sauce. Incredible. #luckyguy #shoplocal

Such a disheartening time to be a #mglit writer… but dammit, I wrote the first chapter of a new WIP today because once it’s in my head, it’s gotta go on the page. And someday, some kid may love it. That has to be enough.

Playing a little family shuffleboard today...Boy 11 proclaims, "Dad's team name is Angsty Teens," so I guess he's got me figured out.

I only make it to a proper shopping mall every year or two, but each time I'm astounded to see Bath & Body Works still kickin' it....another survivor of the 90's! #genx

No respectable physician would ever take a swipe at someone based on their medical condition, politics or no. Needless to say, Dr. Oz is not respectable.
