It wasn't a joke. This behavior indicates the beginning of dementia setting in. Irrational paranoia and delusions are one of the first signs. If someone in your life is older and starts acting like this, it's time to go to the doctor.

Many do; it's definitely an avenue worth looking into. I just got my sister enrolled in medicaid here and they offered medical transport to us.

I think you can understand how implying they are untrustworthy to her could cause issues if she was in an emergency medical situation in which the attending physician is male. You're unlikely to take what I say into account, but hopefully someone else reading this will, I guess.

It is like, a really, really, really, really bad idea to teach a baby to fear male doctors, and this is kind of how that starts. That's a fear that won't be put aside in an emergency and it can make a scary situation for a child much worse.

Honda alarms blast when the battery dies with the door locked. It probably died from temperature fluctuations.

I'm from Alabama. We started a few weeks earlier than y'all appear to, which probably makes up for some of those days, but that's crazy to me. I would really think that PA would want to try to maximize winter break days for weather safety reasons? We also got a week off for Thanksgiving.

Oh word, y'all start almost a full month later than we did. That makes sense. Still, wild, I would assume an earlier start time would make more sense w/ the weather patterns here?

That's crazy. My high school would have gotten off around the 16th and wouldn't be back until the 7th-ish.

The Heartbeat bill is a big one. "On day one, Mastriano will place an immediate ban on Critical Race and Gender Theory Studies in Pennsylvania schools." This is also pretty fucking wild; he is bringing up nonexistant issues to stoke fear and hatred in his base. Unless he wants to instate bans on college courses, which is also nuts.
"On day one, Mastriano will place an immediate ban on biological males in girls' locker rooms and restrooms. On the same day, Mastriano will ban biological males from competing in girls' sports." Indicates to me he wants it to be as challenging as possible for me to piss in a public place, which I moved to Pennsylvania to get away from, so the only remaining reason to stay would be med marijuana. Other places have rec.

I think more conspiracy-minded right-wingers than we would like to believe are experiencing active psychosis of some variety, be it dementia or otherwise. If you read this post closely, a lot of the sentences are very disjointed and points come out of nowhere in a way that acts like they were already introduced and are just facts and that's true for a lot of them.
