re: Rep. Melissa Hortman killed, Sen. John Hoffman shot in 'targeted' shootings

Total utter horseshite. Man was a lifelong dem and hated abortion?
And that’s where folks have lost the plot. Not everyone in every party is an extremist and have a mix of beliefs that don’t fit the “party line”.
There’s a whole arse host of Democrats here in Kentucky that are anti-abortion. Former Dem Rep. Rocky Adkins is a good example, he’s anti-abortion and anti-gun regulation.

Fair amount of Scot descendants are in Appalachia. So more hillbilly than redneck I suppose.

Tyler Childers releasing new album, Snipe Hunter, on July 25th
Posted by BluegrassBelle on 6/12/25 at 12:03 pm
Looks like it's going to be a combo of some old ones making it to official recordings (the official recording of Nose on the Grindstone was released this morning) and possibly some new tracks woven in.
The teaser released yesterday suggests we'll see Oneida and Jersey Giant as well.
Should be a good one. :nana:

Repurposed and made more efficient? Sure, definitely needed.
Dissolved? That is not going to end well.
Agreed. We've been seeing more FEMA involvement here in Kentucky with increased tornadic activity and flooding.
I dread the thought of our state level folks handling ALL of that.
re: Running during summer heat?
Posted by BluegrassBelle on 6/11/25 at 9:55 am
I don't run but I do a fair amount of hiking throughout the year at this point. Try finding some shaded trails if you can to run. That can be helpful as well.
If I'm doing a decent hike I go pretty early in the cool of the morning. It really starts to heat up here and get sticky pretty quick this time of year. And of course stay hydrated. I also watch my heart rate to make sure I don't over do it.

re: Shoulder replacement- How bad is this going to be
Posted by BluegrassBelle on 6/11/25 at 9:53 am
Shoulder surgery is one of the harder rehabs to go through. It can be painful and it feels like it takes forever. Just make sure you do what the PT tells you to do, including the stuff at home. Remember this too shall pass. And you'll feel much better on the other end of it.
The shoulder joint has a lot of shite in a small space. So any kind of inflammation there causes issues.

re: Murray State is the biggest underdog in the CWS

Not sure Coastal Carolina would agree, the yr they won CWS was pretty unexpected
Murray State has only made the NCAA Tournament (not CWS, but the post-season all together) four times in their history. Two of those in the 1970s.
Coastal has been to the NCAA Tournament over 20 times.
re: Advice Needed: Dr wants me to drop 20 pounds

Put your info in a TDEE Calculator and find out what your daily intake should be to cut weight (it'll give you rates in which you want to lose).
Then download something like MyFitnessPal and start counting your calories. And start out measuring and weighing your food. You will be surprised how much food you're likely consuming.
Just cutting that alone should get you down a good ways. Just work on making small, sustainable lifestyle changes. Drink more water, add more protein to your diet, consistently working out.

How old are you? When is the last time you've been in the dating world?
Women with power currently have priorities of:
1. Validation
2. Entertainment
3. Love
4. Loyalty
Its all about keeping them happy, validated, and not letting them get bored
That's not sustainable if men continue to prioritize mainly love and loyalty as a whole.
If you are older think about how much the open relationship/ swinger group has expanded in the last 10-20 years. And its not primarily threesomes with women, its just wives/ gf getting railed by other people.
The women get their validation and entertainment while the men are allowed to have a twisted sense of "love". And because the women stay with that partner the men also get a twisted sense of "loyalty".
There's women that think men are audacious or pussies for wanting a relationship where they can't frick multiple dudes. Meanwhile if a guy goes to a girl and does that then they are a disgusting pig. If you think there aren't 10x more lose/ lose situations for guys now then you are blind.
Not letting other dudes frick your wife is now considered an insecurity. You realize how insanely twisted this shite is?
Imagine thinking this is the norm among 30-40 year olds.
Some of y'all REALLY need to re-evaluate the people in your social circles.

We're going to see Joker Phillips results next season, buddy. And he was 4-8 last season.

re: Supplements (not weed) for relaxation
Posted by BluegrassBelle on 6/10/25 at 12:29 pm
Magnesium glycinate. Natural muscle relaxer. Glycinate (versus something like citrate) won't make you shite your pants/frick up your stomach but will take the edge off. Good to take at night before bed for sleep purposes as well.

This isn’t dry. I am spitting into a coke bottle. It’s bright yellow phlegm.
After an episode of dry heaving, I’m doing a video doctor call because that’s the only way they can see me and I’m worried about somehow injuring myself.
On the other hand d, I do feel like my abs are getting a hell of a workout
A bunch of drainage will absolutely make me sick to my stomach.
Next time, when it first starts kicking up, I recommend using a NeilMed rinse (or Neti Pot with distilled water) just to keep that shite thin and cleared out.
Whenever I've had viral upper respiratory that could move into bronchitis I do the following:
- Drinks lots of water and hot ginger tea with lemon/honey
- Stay on Mucinex (I can't use the decongestant due to it causing my BP to rise) pretty much 24/7 until it clears.
- Get some of the Vapor Rub shower tablets, sit in the bathroom with the exhaust fan off, while the hottest water runs over the tablet. Then sit in the bathroom for about 15 minutes afterward. Do this a few times a day if possible when it first starts then taper down.
- Sleep with an elevated pillow/wedge. Helps keep the shite from just settling.
- Don't go crazy with it, but get up and move around some. Sit outside for a bit if it's warm and sunny.

Aside from a "hey, I bought X amount of X to make for dinner, please don't eat that" general deals, no.
Everything is communal here. And we pretty regularly buy shite that we know the other likes when out shopping.
