my dad, for the better part of almost 10 years now, has been OBSESSED with Donald Trump. He’s obsessed to the point where he’s been going to rallies every time he can, has all the MAGA merch, and even met Trump irl, having a framed photo of them both in his bedroom(along with my grandpa and my dads friends) I have never liked Trump since i found out who he was (like 6th grade when i was 12) and ive been able to look past it for a while because it didn’t necessarily affect my life and i just chalked it up to “well maybe he (Trump) is doing something good enough for my dad to ride for him so hard (no pause)” But now, in october of 2025, i can’t put up with it no more. Every american reading this knows very well Trump is modern day Hitler and it’s been a deplorable year (ICE, big beautiful bill, refusal to release the epstein files, cutting SNAP, appointing racists and pedophiles and racist pedophiles, among many other things. My dad hasn’t changed his mind in the slightest about him and he’s a big fan of all the evil Trump is doing and allowing to happen. I don’t want to associate with people who support open air racism and classism, and yk like everything else Trump has done to my country. I have younger siblings and it makes me feel scared knowing my dad is proud of himself smiling next to a sexual predator (Down below is the picture)

Sorry SNAPs people, Trump and Billionares are busy stealing everyone's money for their own things.

In the brutal heat of Arizona’s desert, bobcats have learned an unlikely trick for survival, they sleep on cactus.

The tall saguaros and spiny chollas give them what the ground can’t: safety, shade, and a clear view of their surroundings.

Perched above the reach of coyotes and snakes, the cactus acts like a natural watchtower, keeping them cool and protected in a landscape that offers little comfort.

It’s a strange sight, but it makes perfect sense. In the desert, every advantage counts, even if it comes with a few needles.

I am 34 years old and have had excruciating acid reflux since I was about 8 years old. I have been taking prescription strength medication every day for 25 years to control it and still have had terrible symptoms that sometimes keep me up at night. I’ve even had an endoscopy under general anesthesia to try to discover the cause.

Recently I noticed that my symptoms tend to start after I take my evening allergy and asthma medication. Incidentally I have been taking these pills since I was about 8 years old.

I’ve always been able to easily dry swallow pills without water. I can take a whole handful of pills dry with no problem, so that’s how I’ve always taken my medication.

So I googled it and sure enough dry swallowing pills can lead to pills getting stuck in your esophagus and cause acid reflux.

I started taking water with my pills and sure enough my acid reflux symptoms disappeared immediately.

It’s been a few months now and I haven’t had a single episode of reflux when I used to have it several times a week.

TLDR I gave myself acid reflux nearly every day for 25 years by dry swallowing pills
