1. Spinach
Spinach is the ultimate leafy green when it comes to improving eyesight. The small leaf is packed with lutein and zeaxanthin, which are healthy antioxidants your eyes and body need.
These antioxidants help to prevent free radicals in the eyes. When free radicals are present, they lead the cells in your eyes to die off. They can leave you open to various vision conditions and diseases.
One disease that spinach helps to prevent is macular degeneration. Macular degeneration is a disease that affects the macula of the eye, which is found at the center of the retina. It is the leading cause of blindness in older adults.
When the macula begins to degenerate, it will slowly diminish a person’s central vision. Though the macula will eventually degenerate, foods like spinach help to keep the disease at bay.

Damn!
Hannah stated in his order that the Arizona GOP had “made no serious pre-filing effort to determine the validity of” their claims, which were based on Trump’s lies about election fraud and vote counting machines
TY, she & Judge John Hannah!

Nevada: Will they Have the First 2024 Primary?
*snip*
The bill also moves to eradicate the state’s caucus process and change its vote to a primary that would be held on the second-to-last Tuesday in January of presidential election years, putting direct threats on Iowa and New Hampshire’s generational roles of being the first states to vote in the presidential nomination process.

TY Sen Schumer, Dems.. including
Sen Brown!

“So what,” Brown said. “Nobody cares about that. What they care about is, did we deliver on unemployment? Did we deliver on vaccines? Did we deliver on pensions? We cut the rate of child poverty in half. Think about that.”

Exactly, Blue_true.. very Well
stated.
It's No Shite Life or Death that we continue to be the Majority in the Senate and House.
The Opposition is Full On Deadly Treasonous Fascism. 
It's not brain surgery as they say! 
What we have is people picking a single issue and making it a deal breaker, when there actually are a long list of important issues that we need to keep our eyes trained on, that “oh, just give up” mindset is both fucking infuriating and disgusting.
