Yesterday I dislocated a toe again, and then sat up in bed so fast I slightly pulled an abdominal muscle. In lieu of hearing me complain a bunch, have some links!

    I have never even heard of acetylcholine! Although I eat a lot of soy, so probably that's not what's causing about half of those symptoms.

    Hope your toe and rib heal swiftly.

    Oh, wow. I’m sorry about your toe, and the abdominal muscle. I hope you’re doing okay-ish today.

    I love the Minoan find! I’m not surprised about Cigna … and I’m wondering whether cholinergic herbs like gingko biloba would be beneficial for long COVID symptoms. Hmmm.

    Yay, the Tilly spin-off we (I) demanded!

    I saw a comment about speculation a year or more ago that they could only really handle 5 shows at a time, but with Picard ending its (disastrous) run the time is here. Still wish we'd gotten a spin-off with Michelle Yeoh, but she's been busy...

    Discovery is my jam. I'm waiting to see where it ends up, but it could eventually outrank DS9 as my favorite Trek.
