So much suffering and death 😭
"Hamas’ cross-border raid on Oct. 7 killed 1,200 people in southern Israel, most of them civilians, according to Israeli authorities. The militants took roughly 250 people hostage. About 120 are still in captivity, with about a third said to be dead.
Israel's bombardment and offensives in Gaza have killed more than 38,200 people and wounded more than 88,000, according to the territory's Health Ministry…"

I don't post much about the war but when I read this:
"Israeli troops have occupied at least eight hospitals, causing the deaths of patients and medical workers along with massive destruction to facilities and equipment"
I felt like attacks on hospitals and schools were not getting enough attention!
"Airstrike kills 25 in southern Gaza as Israeli assault on Gaza City shuts down medical facilities"

We're looking at high temperatures of 100 F or more (37+ Celsius) for the next few days in the Portland metro area. Luckily it does cool down a bit overnight so early mornings aren't bad.

"When I'm sick mentally or physically, I can still participate, even if I can't be there physically."
Yup! I'm too sick to go outside about 90% of the time (chronic illness)
Some folks are worse, completely housebound or bedbound. Using a phone or other device is their primary means of communication with other people.
Folks should not be so quick judge online use! There are many situations they simply don't understand

Oops, I accidentally voted for the least instead of the most 🙈
Of course, either way, I could still be wrong!

"Oof, it's so painful!"
"Do you mean pain from Long Covid symptoms? Or painful grief from losing family and friends to Covid?"
"No, I mean attacks from folks who say I'm contributing to disability and death by doing nothing to stop the spread of Covid!"
