Get Your Dunkin' Tuesday

 This weekend was quite the scare. I woke up around 2 am in excruciating pain in my abdomen. I began throwing up. It was all clear liquids. I couldn't sleep. No pain medication worked. I was miserable. I finally gave up around 6 am and went to the ER. I'm glad I did. I listened to my body, and it told me "GO GET HELP!" After several tests and a lot of drugs, I started to calm down. Turns out I had appendicitis. Just my luck, not a single local hospital had a bed available, so EMS took me about an hour away to St. John's in Springfield. I was transferred from ER to ER and later that night had my appendix removed. I'm lucky to have health insurance. I'm lucky I was able to advocate for myself. And I was lucky to have a nursing and surgical team that listened to my concerns. I'm still in pain, but much more manageable now. Six weeks of recovery. Glad to be alive. But damn, that was scary; I had no idea what was going on. Take care of yourselves, y'all. 

Here are your highlights: 

The Ballroom continues with SCOTUS approval this time. Knowing Trump, it will not only be tacky, but unfinished by the time his term ends. 

Chaotic Midterms? USPS Whistleblower warns mail-in-voting is in trouble. 

Military tells Hegseth enough with Iran.

Grand Canyon flash flooding. People missing; 2 dead. 

Tim Cook's reign as Apple CEO has come to a close. New CEO John Termus takes over with AI on everyone's mind. Looking back, I can't think of a single evolution Cook brought to Apple. Other than selling his soul to Trump. Fuck that guy.

Get Your Dunkin' Friday

I had to take the day off yesterday. Had an MRI; it turned out okay, so that was a relief. My doctor prescribed me stronger meds, which are working. Take your health seriously.  Here are your highlights:   NASA is about to launch a new telescope into space .  The police want to spy on you daily. They're spending funds on more Flock cameras .  "Illegal and baseless." Judge calls out the Pentagon for their attacks on Anthropic.  Climate change affects those with less. Gary, Indiana its latest victim .  The Natalie Harp stuff gets worse. This election cycle should be fairly simple for Dems. Gas prices up! While Trump destroys the White House. Food prices up! While Trump says he's renaming Lake Ontario . Rinse repeat. We've got serious issues, and we've got serious solutions. Trump and Republicans would rather slap his name on the Kennedy Center than help you. I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message.
