Are there any Vets from Viet Nam that have Agent Orange syndrome? I'd love to talk about it.

Or anyone else that knows about it.

Thanks.

Absolutely sick of the hugely popular vids on #facebook and #instagram that are just klut-chasers and people with too many followers doing *terrible things* with their dogs

Staring closely into their eyes
Letting kids clamber on and poke panting dogs
Putting brachycephalic dogs in swimming pools (?!?)
Obviously all the cropping and 'ooh my vicious dog' posturing

No wonder #vets are TIRED

@craignewmark But you support the #press and #vets and don't poop on people's heads when you fly overhead.

Jon Stewart encourages vets exposed to toxic chemicals to apply for medical benefits through the PACT Act. Please pass it on.

Great News!
We are home from the vets.
Without an op.
We do have more tablets and more eye drops though.
Even better our next appointment is not until next week.
So thanks for all your positive vibes... they definitely helped

Beautiful human alert: Stacey Buckner.

"Through her program, Off-Road Outreach (https://offroadoutreach.com/), Buckner has helped more than 1,000 veterans in Fayetteville, N.C. Using her own off-road vehicle – a Jeep that has accommodations for water, heating, and cooking – Buckner provides mobile showers, laundry services, and meals to homeless veterans in her hometown, known for its proximity to Fort Liberty [US Army]."

''#WHO assesses the #risk of #human #infection as low for the general population, and low to moderate for #cat owners and #vets, without the use of appropriate #PPE.

Infection of cats with #H5N1 has been reported before, but this is the first report of high numbers of infected cats over a wide geographical area.

WHO continues to monitor the situation, in close collaboration with partners and the government of Poland.'' #epizootic #panzootic #pandemic #emergency #alert

I keep praying for the #Vets w #PTSD

I’m without #GIS tools for a few days but I found this in an old chat

“A quick analysis of a typical South Salem neighborhood shows that a noise with a 1/4 mile radius affects 680 buildings. Building can be businesses, sheds, schools, or apartment buildings. But at an average occupancy of 2 people per home, that’s 1360 people being disturbed by one person’s "fun"

@flarion

Yes, I would say exactly that; the privatisation of #dentalcare has been the 'proof of concept' for the #Tories wider attach on the #nhs.

Of course, another (less often noted) parallel sector (although of course never available via the public sector) is #vets & the provision of #healthcare for animals which offers some very worrying precedents for the health care of humans!

The 303 Creative
#SCOTUS ruling on #LGBTQ #discrimination seems to:

1. Advance the perception that "religious" = "bigoted" and "exclusionary"

2. Provide a massive loophole, no matter how much denied by the majority, to enable "religious" objections to apply to any public accommodation or business: "We don't sell to #Muslims / #Jews / #Atheists," sure but also "We don't sell to #Blacks, #Foreigners, #Old People, #Divorced folk, #Women, #Vets, the #Disabled because my religion forbids it." 1/

This Memorial Day, my #
veteran spouse is napping, and I'm glad for that. Naps, good.

Hope you're all having a good #MemorialDay, too.

#Veterans have lost another #friend

I’ve never heard of #DocTodd and I’m not a particularly big fan of the music genre itself, but we #vets have such few real, sincere, and active friends that I feel each loss

Got 3 worming tablets for my dog at the vets, the dose on the box says to give him 2 and a half, oh well.... waste not want not and all that, i'd be silly not to take the surplus.
