(no subject)
I'm getting more than a little frustrated at facebook. In the last week there have been four bs posts my friends have posted. They were all quite easily debunked with just a little bit of research.
The first was an essay supposedly written by an 8 year old describing the most influential person in their life. They choose Jesus, and the teacher wrote on there to remove Jesus. The remarks just from friends of friends of this friend was "KILL THE TEACHER" (very Christian of them.) I mean, even without googling it, it was obvious the handwriting was NOT that of an 8-year-old child. Durrrr
The second was that FEMA is marking mailboxes for some sort of impending government round up. Yeah, that's likely...
The third was about this farmer named Cliven who was getting harassed by the federal government....because he let his cows graze on federal land and he refused to pay the fees that would allow him to let his cows graze on federal land. If it were the other way around, i'm pretty sure people would be uberpissed if the federal government let their government cows graze on his land.
The fourth was a disgusting photo of some cow meat oozing some weird substance. In this case, the article was real, albeit over a decade old, but the photo was fake and to me, that's just as bad. The article was about the FDA approving cows and animals that had sores or other things. For me, if they approved it, it must have little chance of affecting us, I mean, any more than the other crap we stuff into our bodies.
On a positive note, at dialysis Saturday they were able to use two needles in my leg access! Yay. This is one step closer to getting the shunt out of my chest. I appreciate it as a backup, but it is definitely messing up my inclination to sleep on my belly for part of the night. I've actually taken to sleeping in the lay-z-boy chair my brother bought once upon a time- no twisting and turning for me!
