The Assault on Rand Paul, H-1B visas, More Rioting, and a Doggo update
I have a big update on the doggo!
Hey everyone,
Hope you’re all doing well!
Sorry this note is coming to you a day late, I have been crazy busy the last few days with writing and other work stuff.
I have one big update on the doggo! As you might remember, Reggie already had heart worms when I adopted him. I agreed to take care of him and give him his medicine etc. over the next few months as he makes what’s going to be a full recovery.
On Monday, I dropped him off for his last heart worm treatment at the vet! But that meant I had to leave him there overnight and it felt so weird and sad not having him with me for almost 36 hours. He came home groggy and sick from the treatment but is already feeling better. Don’t worry, my boyfriend and I are taking good care of him :)
We discovered that he loves turkey! We’d struggled to get him to eat any form of dog treat — he was uninterested in three kinds we tried, as well as peanut butter, carrots, and more — but now we know he obsesses over turkey slices. I’m thankful we discovered this as it’s the only way I’ve been able to get him to eat his daily meds.
Anyway, I’ll keep you all in the loop as he keeps getting better!
Meme: It’s sad how accurate this is…
Food Take: Oat milk is disgusting! My boyfriend puts it in his coffee and I just CANNOT handle it.

Media Corner: Check out the long-form podcast interview I did with Brian Nichols of the WeAreLibertarians podcast network. He’s got a great, quickly-growing show with thousands of regular listeners where he interviews libertarian-leaning guests. We touched on #BlackLivesMatter, rioting, the economic impact of looting, the 2020 election, the Libertarian Party and more.
