Cyber attacks targeting hospitals surged worldwide in 2021 and 2022, in large part because of the pandemic, which left the healthcare system vulnerable to attacks. The number of deaths caused by these attacks is not yet known.

I'm going to start off the New Year with this tip: if you suffer from chronic muscle or joint pain, and have not yet tried a TENS unit, you're probably suffering needlessly. They don't "cure" you, but they can rewire your brain around the pain so effectively, they can feel like a cure. Most naysayers I talk to tried them once and lost interest. Try again. Experiment to find electrode placement that works for you. They are just too inexpensive ($35) not to try.

It's the New Year, I had purposefully reduced my alcohol intake the last couple of months and had noticed that when I drink more I don't feel that well for a while. Last night, overdid it, not sloshed but just more than I should and boy am I feeling it today. I feel like a buzzing blanket is over everything and making me slow. Is this how a hangover feels?
Trying to convince my husband's uncle that yes, I would adopt a #bat if the cats wouldn't snack on it. Just look at these adorable faces!
(this is the internet so to make it clear: don't treat wild animals as pets. There are pictures from veterinary and rescue services. Want something cute and bat-like? #Commission a plush from your local artist)
And let's not forget NYT had its own dubious polling:
..."claimed independent women shifted 32 points — from favoring Dems by 14 points in Sept to favoring GOP by 18 points in Oct. All based on a sample of just 95 independent women..."
