And my mother's dogs

Went to a friend's house a couple weeks ago... immediately made new friends.

And my mother's dogs.

I have at least one cat 'forcing' me to hold or cuddle them roughly 10-12 hours a day, ha. People who don't treat their pets as family are alien to me.

The medical profession bowing down to draconian anti-abortion laws and allowing women to die on their tables is speaking volumes. I read a book about 'The Nazi Doctors' in college and now I understand how that happened.

100%. So many professions have ethics training out the wazoo drilling down that one has a responsibility to yada yada yada, and all that ethics training goes to nothing when The State tells them what to do.

"Currently Reading"

I normally read ~5 books at a time. I've gone off the rails the past few months...

How, uh, long do you have?

I normally have 5-10 books of various genres and styles that I am 'currently reading'. I've gotten a little crazy the past few months and am 'currently reading' like, 50 books. I've read at least 1 chapter (or one poem) in each of these in the past couple of days. Help?
