Updating my pinned 🧵 :

I'm not active on Twitter anymore, so I'm rebuilding the #migraine and #MigraineChat community here. A few ways to connect....

The original MigraineChat feed stopped working, so like and pin this one. It works the same.

The October slide hit me early and like a Mack truck. I'm not sure what to do if my pain doesn't calm down. This is not sustainable.

We have a neighborhood wild turkey flock that comes around once a day. I heard them outside my window so got up to look. The neighbor's cat was stalking them, preparing to pounch and take on seven turkeys twice its size. Scared off the little menace.

Welp, first Ransom Canyon, now Sweet Magnolias. I'm losing all my easy-on-the-brain, fun-to-complain-about TV shows. At least I still have Virgin River for now.

Pour one out for the ladies of Serenity.
Netflix has canceled the small-town drama Sweet Magnolias after five seasons, but there's a silver lining for one of its stars.

Every day. This body requires multiple meals to have energy. But it takes so much energy to make those meals. It just feels like such a scam.

One skill I wish I could teach every person with migraine is how to source and understand quality information, because people are out there charging money for info that exists for free and taking advantage of folks.

Apple crisp with vanilla ice cream is delicious.

They really gotta figure out something that reliably relieves head pain without side effects. My other migraine symptoms aren't fun but that is breaking me down.

Please enjoy every pitch of Payton Tolle's immaculate inning.

Why are Americans so tired? CDC report highlights who’s feeling it most
Fatigue is one of the most common concerns reported in primary care visits, yet not much attention is given to how often adults in the U.S. are coping with it.

Friends w/fatigue, if you spend lots of time in bed & find your hair became tangly, any tips to share? Leave-in conditioner hasn't helped (but I'd take unscented recs just in case another might). I'm contemplating a silk pillow case but wonder if I need pure silk. Other ideas?

Aside from making the apple crisp, today was kind of a cruddy day. And I think I baked the crisp too long, so that might be mushy. Sigh.

His name was Welles Crowther. He was a fellow BC alum. Tonight, BC Football plays Rutgers in the annual Red Bandana game honoring his memory and bravery.

The amount of hate I have for Tr*mp after watching this clip might have hit an all-time high.
Trump on a deceased 9/11 rescuer:

"The Man in the Red Bandana. Have you heard of him? He's become more famous than me. I don't like it. Very unhappy. But he's become much more famous than me."
