★ Supernatural - Captain America Time after time AU Chasing after the Greek time God Chronos zapped Dean back to 1943, and this is when he shot a Nazi, met the legendary Steve Rogers, and almost fought the war.
“Sammy, turns out Snider is Chronos. I rode him to 1943. Am working with Captain America & Co - yes, you hear me right CAPTAIN AMERICA. Stark tracked down Chronos, dude he’s working with Hydra. They’re meeting at midnight, we’ve got the weapon and are going after him. Gotta stop him before he can change history man. Take care of yourself, Sam.”
Today I made donations to four states’ Planned Parenthood organizations. PP in Florida, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas received donations “in honor” those states’ one current and three former governors. These politicians’ offices should be receiving the happy news soon.

While I don’t agree with it, it’s nothing new. Parents “back in my day” would try to expose their children to chicken pox (of course this was before the vaccine). My mother tried to expose my brother and I - neither of us got it - that is until our own children did so my brother and I were both adults when we did get chicken pox. Thankfully by the time the rest of my children came along there was a vaccine :-)
I don’t agree with this either. Also, chicken pox is less dangerous than measles (and has not been shown to cause blindness or brain damage but can lead to scarlet fever - I guess, pick your poison). And the comment “I wish scientists could figure out a way to give all children a very mild strain of a disease”…HELLO!!! THAT’S WHAT A LIVE VIRUS VACCINE IS!! The measles vaccine is an attenuated (weakened) live virus. I just went through a typhoid vaccination cycle. It was a attenuated bacterium vaccine. It did not kill me, whereas typhoid fever has a 30% mortality rate if not treated with antibiotics (and even then some people may die from complications). I will take a vaccine any day over actual infection and treatment!!
Reaction: I just LOVE it when so-called “friends” on social media are dismissive of my beliefs, ideas, concerns. Oh, sorry, I forgot that your tastes are superior and trump any issues that I may have with this person/ music/ art/ artist.
Action: And then I stop, breathe, realize that I haven’t actually had any IRL interaction with this person in years, that they have zero impact on my life, and that, when it comes right down to it, I don’t really care what they think of me. And I laugh. And move on with my day. Because this is not life or death, it’s all kind of silly or stupid, and I really need to focus my energy on more important things. Social media is a very weird place. If I let it get to me or take it personally I will not like myself or other people very much.
