Why is my skin like having droplets of water not moving and not coming off but it's wet?
  • Could be you might have come in contact with a poisonous plant like poison ivy, poison oak, sumac. An abrasion from a seat belt, back pack or something could cause some skin infection or folliculitis. Germs are already on the skin and then it gets some kind of point of entry. Ant bites, or mites might also lead to some infection. Shingles is more like clusters of cold sores, but it could be a virus.

  • New York’s Fat Beach Day gives plus-size people a space to be themselves
  • You're right there are so many things that are not in control and it's not easy. It might not just be a thyroid issue that is causing it, but it doesn't help matters any. Many people have hashimoto's and are thin.

  • COVID is coming for California, and it's already hitting the SF Bay Area the hardest
  • Some people can't get it because they don't have insurance and it is pretty expensive. So a family of four could wind up spending several hundreds of dollars if they can't afford the vaccine and there is no public support for it, or they don't know where to get help to pay for it in the United States.

  • Nikki Haley writes ‘Finish Them!’ on Israeli bomb bound for Gaza
  • Noem also shot three elderly horses and one very hated "demon goat". She has never heard of humane euthanization, or rehoming and training for the dog. I think she expected the dog to just naturally not act like a dog. At 14 months old they are still puppies and in their adolescent phase. To make matters worse people witnessed her doing the killings, and then children got off of a school bus.

  • Bill to ban most public mask wearing, including for health reasons, advances in North Carolina
  • "...But Republican legislators continued to express doubt that someone would get in legal trouble for masking because of health concerns, saying law enforcement and prosecutors would use discretion on whether to charge someone. Newton said the bill focuses on criminalizing masks only for the purpose of concealing one's identity..."

    I don't have faith that people would not get harassed or feel threatened by somebody because they are wearing a mask for health reasons. The law discourages mask use.

  • Kristi Noem defends apparent threat to kill Biden’s dog Commander: ‘Say hello to Cricket’
  • ... Ranting...Then she also slowly killed a goat. There was also three horses put down in one week. I don't know how that is acceptable that three horses have to get put down in one week. Horses got old. I don't know if she's took it into her own hands to kill the horses but most people who have old sick animals call a large animal vet to the property and humanely euthanize. They don't need to suffer in agony and get their brains blown out.

    If a dog's behavior is intractable to where it is killing the neighbor's livestock then fix it so the dog is not roaming around off leash. A puppy needs to be trained. A dog needs training. A 14-month-old canine is still a puppy. Many dog breeds do not mature until they are 3 years old. She needed a trainer, to research training that breed, or rehome the dog. Goats are known to be ornery and mean, she should know these things before she gets farm animals.

  • Blood test shows 83% accuracy for detecting colorectal cancer, study finds
  • Same. And worrying if it's done a good enough job. The colonoscopy the time before my last one I had PEG solution and the magnesium citrate. Then I thought I was going to die. My blood pressure got really low and I couldn't function for a couple days. The doctor had me on a re-check in 5 years so the colonoscopy I had last year they only had me do PEG along with the liquid diet and that was so much better. Still not pleasant but I didn't get so weak and faint. I think there was a shortage of Mg citrate. If you can just do the PEG solution that might help and be enough. I don't go back for 9 years and hopefully the blood test will be enough.
