Scary episode with my mom last night. Almost as if my airway talk brought it to use here, she had a frightening coughing episode. Maybe something was repulsive to her senses or mind or just fluid went down the wrong way or something was inhaled, but it got so bad she had to spit up like I said and even just like the scriptures I quoted from Proverbs 22 it was like a gluttonous spirit being repulsed. I was going to call 911 but she stopped me. I guess it was a form of an “Italian tune-up” throttling like that but she recovered after some time. But this was scary and helpless, like I was there as Death itself and my presence was just making it worse. For a moment she looked still like behind a plate glass or ice but she was able to beat the freeze. This seemed like the possession from the Exorcist or Pennywise was trying to kill my mother. It was like watching different people and hearing the voices change. Maybe I watch too much politics but she sounded like The Speaker of The House and Education Secretary. It was difficult because she was trying to communicate that she had to spit up because of possible hernia danger the coughing got so dry and powerful. It was like a the force that was considered almost overpowering of a much larger man. I’m glad she was tough. She said she hadn’t thrown up in several years and I’m hoping this works like the italian tune up and seems to right now as she was up and about . She did actually have her vehicle serviced yesterday. I’m glad she had that fire element to beat this, because i have seen that paned stare look on so many people that never get past it in their lifetimes. Well hopefully I can get her to stay home and let me take care of the kitchen and laundry and whatever and just rest. I think this was probably the best thing to happen right now and hopefully nobody has to watch their mother pass before them in some horrible coughing fit like this. She seems to have come out a winner, but this was a heavy overburdening load. ---

Some people just take the health reboot they get for doing nothing but failing and not nearly enough of anything as a given right. Not happy to see you if that’s why your smiling. ---

She is upset as I was asking if I could finally throw some of the stuff away here like collections of National Geographic magazine stuffed animals kid books antiques etc. And she had to explain about the house and how the bank would take care of bills and payments etc. This was terrible time for information last night. But dude, you are looking for a reboot and trying to fail your vitals right now. Why don’t you go stand with the rest of your family in a humidor and have your stares look back at you? That throat and neck are just too much of a giveaway. You want more food and are doing the equivalent of holding your breath until your blue in the face. Sorry. ---

You have it programmed like a opening set of chess moves. Nobody in my family does that shameful cowardice. Kind of unfair if you think about it. Go read Proverbs 22. I’m not happy to see you feeling just optimal and fit. ---

What hands or deals the Lord have for that? You are just being too greedy and self centered. Results are everything to you and you won’t get any from me. I’m hoping others treat you the same. And I don’t know how you are used to seeing your mother, but I hope you sober up about your quips and insults. ---

> [@DthBreath](#): > > Your family never throws up over the toilet right? They are superior in nutrition! Correct. The last time I threw up was when I tried that marijuana brownie a few years ago to help with my pain after surgery. Horrible experience. > [@Marijuana](https://bbad.com/t/marijuana/65/184): > > So I’ve been having trouble sleeping. A week ago, I decided to try marijuana for my insomnia. My woman was into the idea so I found a guy who delivered and bought a tray of brownies since I can’t stand the idea of smoking. Nine brownies, extra strong, about $35 USD. I have no idea if that’s a good price or not and don’t care. I figured I’d shop prices if they worked and I became a regular consumer. > > Anyway, after consulting with some pothead friends and family on WhatsApp, we each ate half a brownie. She got giggly and happy and was clearly high, then after about an hour she started getting paranoid, and then after another hour she got sick and threw up. She was totally stoned and messed up and just lay in bed waiting for the effect to subside. It was extremely unpleasant for her. > > Me? Nothing. Nada. No effect. I went back to WhatsApp and my pothead friends said to try a tiny bit more (half of half a brownie). I did that. Then suddenly, after about 20 min, it hit me. I was totally stoned and messed up. Disoriented, the room was spinning, couldn’t walk, couldn’t even sit up straight, just lay there. After about an hour, I was a tiny bit better but still wrecked and then I also got sick. I spent about 30 min face down in the toilet throwing up food I thought had long since been digested and then went back to bed and hoped I would die soon. > > The next day we were both nauseous but I was worse than she was. I didn’t throw up again but I felt like I was going to. After two days, she was fine but it took me four full days to feel human again. The (roughly) 8 remaining brownies went straight into the garbage. > > I am happy marijuana is legal these days but that doesn’t mean it’s for me. I don’t plan to ever try it again. It was honestly one of the worst experiences of my life. ---

We have not really gotten another wave for a few months in new England. I’m interested to see how many hours I will be working in the next few months. We have received a grant to run testing for the state so there are a lot of renovations going on now. We will be bringing in a lot more testing. There are lots of questions I have like what computer system are these samples going to be on, where is the media coming from, am I making the media but my biggest question is who is running the test. There is already a shortage of lab techs. The 60 somethings want to work less. Not more. 67% of the 20 somethings dont seem to care about the lab. So I’m wondering who is going to step up. ---

I had to go search this out because the article is so left-leaning. McEnany said, “This story is another inaccurate and disgusting partisan hit job. One Leftist attended called it blind capitalism and extreme libertarian ideals gone wrong,” he said. “In hindsight it’s not crazy to think it was some purposeful belief that it was okay if Cuomo had a tough go of it because [New York] was a blue state.” Kushner said Cuomo told reporters that Kushner had been “extraordinarily helpful.” Another attendee said it seemed very clear Kushner was less interested in finding a solution because, at the time, the virus was primarily ravaging cities in blue states, adding that, “We were flabbergasted. I basically had an out-of-body experience: Where am I, and what happened to America?” The vast majority of the federal response was aimed at helping blue states. Just because the Kushner plan flatlined doesn’t mean he failed. Trump unleashed the government’s procurement powers when he invoked the Defense Production Act. GM, another attendee, has become a reliable source for PPE, supplying our country with more than 620,000 face masks in the first 18 days of production. In fairness to your rant, this is why Trump is president and not Kushner. ---

Just a random observation on Covid. Four and a half months ago, the WHO’s position was that masks for the public were not necessary. No, this was not to preserve masks for health workers which is the current fiction some people are promoting. It was WHO policy for many years. They only changed it on June 6, 2020. ---

I think there is an exchange rate for immunities. You take in the equivalent amount of virus as the output of immunities. I think you can have a certain level of corona virus without covid, but there is a threshold and you can fluctuate back and forth. Kind of like hiv/aids which I believe is just T cell count. ---
