Had a particularly challenging night with one of my psych patients. She was psychotic but settled at 1 and was grateful. Every morning we serve coffee at six, and put on the news to keep the patients oriented to reality.

As I was doing my barista duty the challenging gal pal patient from the night appeared for coffee. She was served and the news began. It was describing the confirmation of robert f. kennedy, jr. Suddenly I heard my gal pal patient bellow,

“Are they fuckin nuts?”

Then another patient added, “Don’t worry, he’s a kennedy so they’ll probably kill him anyway.”

Out of the mouth of babes..

Caveat: Got my new winter coat yesterday. Guess the mail from China is restored. And it fits great, and is warm. Thanks, Temu. Am limiting Amazon since Bezo pulled all his contributions to green causes.
