Next protest March 11. On my last video of the March 4 protest, someone complained that I was hiding the left side of the road and only showing the good side. So here is a video of me standing on the other side of the street. The left sidewalk does not look as full, but this was at the beginning of the protest. We were filling out the right side, and then were starting to spill over to the left side. Overall, there were at least 100 people the whole time, and almost 150 people that came out (not everyone stayed the whole time). Many people work and cannot afford to take off to protest. Most of the protestors were retirees, students, or workers with weird schedules. Some were people like me who work nearby and walked over to the protest on their lunch break. 95% of the cars that drove by us during lunch rush were honking and cheering in support. We were not paid to protest, in fact we spent our own money or our own PTO to be present this day. We all came from different organizations, and some people just came by themselves because they saw the flyers online. This is a pretty conservative area, so imagine how bad things have to be that a normally conservative population is out here protesting. We are very big on gun rights here, and a supposedly conservative president is talking about taking our guns away. Our Sheriff Grady Judd, for whom we Polk Countians have an unusual obsession with, has expressed reservations on this administration. This is a mining and agricultural area. Our Congressional reps have not held a live townhall since 2017. Can you imagine a Congressman refusing to hold a townhall and using the virus as an excuse in 2025? Don't be surprised that conservatives are turning against this foolishness. Growing, it was normal for high schoolers to go hunting or hiking on the weekends. We grew up with nature, and now the Trump Administration wants to destroy all the good hunting, fishing, and hiking spots. #lakeland #lakelandfl #polkcounty #florida #march4democracy #savetherepublic #savedemocracy Did you know that the people you spend time with can affect your music career just like a virus spreads? It’s called The Law of Infection—and it means that success and failure are both contagious. If you’re always around lazy, negative, or unmotivated people, their energy will infect your mindset. You might start making excuses, losing focus, or doubting yourself without even realizing it. But if you surround yourself with hardworking, creative, and focused artists, their habits will rub off on you too! You’ll feel more inspired, motivated, and ready to grow in your music career. Your circle determines your success. Be around people who push you to level up, not pull you down. ⚡ Tag a friend who motivates you to be great! 🎶 #MusicGrind #CreativeMindset #StayInspired #LawOfInfection #MusicSuccess #MindsetMatters #ArtistGrowth In the video, I said I put her in the shower to help clean away boogers: I misspoke. She doesn’t actually go INTO the shower. I meant to say that I run the shower for the steam. It maybe a more serious situation than we thought like calicivirus but we won’t know until the labs come back. Little Grey Goose put me through such a scare over the last week, and though she’s making positive strides toward recovery, we are not out of the woods. She had ulcers on the roof of her mouth but they seem to be subsiding. Her nose was scabbed and would bleed but I think that was from cleaning away the continuous flow of muchos coming out of her little nose so she could breathe. She couldn’t breath through it without the cleaning and, consequently, the scab would come off with it. This morning, I saw improvement with that, much less mucus but we are not out of the woods yet. If it is calicivirus, she’s very susceptible to other infections so she is on antibiotics to help prevent that. Right now, she is isolated in my bathroom. She checked out the food I put down for her but she hasn’t taken any in on her own so I am force feeding her soft food using my finger. Hopefully, her sense of smell will return and peak her interest. She also has a prescription appetite stimulant. There’s a humidifier going and I do steam showers to really open her up. Everything that can be done we are doing. @Phyllis Kitty Cat Rescue comes over to do sub q fluids. There is no treatment for calicivirus, if that’s what it is, as it has to run its course but we are fighting for her and she is fighting with us. Anyone out there that has dealt with this horrible virus, please share with me your stories or recovery. I could really use the positivity, right now. Please send this little girl your healing light and energy, your prayers. #calicivirus #foster #fosterkittensoftiktok #kitty #cat #fosterkittens #catsoftiktok #fostermom #ilovecats #greykitty #greykitten #greycat #greycatsoftiktok #greykittensoftiktok 🌡️ Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV): What You Need to Know Did you know that HMPV, a respiratory virus, is currently causing a surge in infections across China? 🏥 This virus, which commonly leads to symptoms like cough 🤧, fever 🤒, nasal congestion, and breathing difficulties, is primarily affecting vulnerable groups such as children 👶, seniors 👵, and those with weakened immune systems. 🦠Health authorities emphasize that this increase aligns with typical seasonal patterns and is not unusual during winter. However, hospitals are experiencing high patient loads due to the outbreak. Experts recommend maintaining proper hygiene 🧼, like frequent handwashing and covering coughs and sneezes, to reduce the risk of infection. 👉While HMPV can result in severe respiratory illnesses like pneumonia in at-risk groups, most cases remain mild. Stay vigilant and updated to protect yourself and others. @Zenhealth @Zenhealth #HMPV #humanmetapneumovirus #needtoknow #didyouknow #symptomsofperimenopause #viralvideo
