Do you know how often I had nightmares as a kid of this exact thing? Of a shooter walking into my synagogue and killing me?
I remember years ago there were packages being sent to temples across the country with suspicious powder in it. I was terrified to go to temple for weeks because I was sure it was going to be sent to mine.
My mom had to hold my hand and coax me inside each time we went. I was terrified.
And I love being Jewish. I fiercely adore my religion. It defines me in a thousand and one ways. It is the best of me.
But it’s also one of the worst parts of me. Because I am constantly scared.
And now more than ever with all the hate and vitriol spewing from the goddamn president of the united states.
This is not the fault of both parties. This is Trump’s fault. This is the GOP’s fault. They caused this fissure of hatred that is bubbling up in this country. They caused the bombs being sent to their opposition. They caused a fear I always had to happen to the Jews of Pittsburgh

I recently learned that compounds in grapefruit juice called furanocouramins increase the blood concentration of both oxycodone and oxymorphone, and in half the time than without grapefruit juice.
Know what that means? The grapefruit juice increases the potency of your normal dose.
THIS IS LIFE-THREATENING.
Grapefruit already interacts with many medications, but this is dangerous. You could overdose. You could die.
