Oh no! Oh no. 😿
An FDA committee is meeting and considering removing some COVID vaccine recommendations for certain groups. Public comment is open until May 23, 2025 11:59PM Eastern.
I was reminded of this satirical gem from 2006. Funny/sad/infuriating how much it still applies almost 20 years later.
Gosh, I’m tired. Exhausted.
A lot of stuff has happened to me in the past few days. Some very good stuff, but also some very—uh—not good stuff. The kind of stuff which would really affect my mental health in a negative way if I hadn’t built up a whole ton of #mindfulness mojo (that’s the medical term for it, dontchaknow!) from my many recent travels & hikes through nature wilderness areas.
I have never had to be so “grounded” in my inner life as right now. The world seems to have gone utterly, utterly mad. I get very little peace from any externalities right now. If I am to be at peace, I must summon it from within—and from the rocks and the trees and the streams and the grass and the sky. You’d better believe I’m even doing hippie-dippie shit like holding crystals. Yeah, crystals! 💎
It’s come to this. 😂
What are your mindfulness / meditation / spiritual practices you like to do to remain grounded and find inner peace? I’d love it if you would comment via Mastodon (link below) and let me know!
