Trump and Musk may be discovering already why no individual should ever have the kinds of power they gave each other. The incomprehensible mountain of "private" data that Musk collected versus the unchecked executive authority Trump won in the election of himself and his sycophants w/ Musk's money.

Thank you for the great review!

Is a changing distribution of money from college athletics a threat to the farce we have accepted as "amateur" athletics? You bet. But considering how money, specifically from those who have the bulk of it now, is an even larger threat to democracy, we may be getting the cart ahead of the horse.

My son is a HS senior. Looking at universities that offered the programs he wanted has been depressing. His top choices were all in states that are waging war on academic freedom.

I just had an idea for a new business...

I started to watch the newly released footage of Kilmar Abrego Garcia's old traffic stop but decided not to. It doesn't matter. What matters is that our president refuses to do what the Supreme Court says he must do and he admits he can easily do. Our constitution is being ignored so we aren't free.

Literary pilgrimage today. Taking the fam to see the live production of To Kill a Mockingbird in Monroeville, AL (Harper Lee's hometown). What book or author impacted you enough to inspire action?

My neighbors are trying to sell their used "custom" shower curtain for $100. Dude, I can get a brand new one with the Hulk on it for twenty bucks.

There are people doing the essential legal work to protect trans individuals in the US. They need funding to continue their work. I'm one of hundreds of authors who have donated items for an auction to support them while they support a community that is under attack. Thanks for taking a look.

Want signed copies of my Detective Whiskers books? Donate to the Crime Writers for Trans Rights Auction - bidding opens March 26th at 9AM EDT. There are also signed books from MUCH more famous authors and some other really cool items.

Updated the script for one of my cozy mystery books just now. Sometimes adding one small phrase to more clearly define the location makes a big difference.

When one of Musk's unmanned rockets blows up he celebrates because he's "moving fast and breaking things." The United States government is not an unmanned spacecraft. It is filled with people who have dedicated their lives to serving fellow Americans. We owe them better than this.

A new episode of my Cozy Pet Podcast is now live. My guest this time is Seren Star Goode talking about Grok, the Maine Coon cat in her Amanda Warren Cozy Animal Mystery series. Love pets in your books? Search for the Cozy Pet Podcast wherever you watch/listen to podcasts.

My favorite songs on the Pink Floyd Christmas album... Us and Them (and That Guy Who Brings Fruitcake) Comfortably Numb... from Eggnog Another Brick in the Mall (Part II) Have a Cigar (and Some Figgy Pudding) The Great Gift-Giving Gig in the Sky Shine On You Crazy Santa

This guy was arrested at the apartment complex my sister-in-law used to live in.

RE: Moving to a new country. I see a lot of information about which places are inexpensive, have other expats, etc. But here’s what I think gets overlooked. Where can I make a positive impact? Will the locals benefit because I am there?

Half mystery, half (Hallmark) Christmas Movie, 100% fun. My new Detective Whiskers cozy mystery book is released on Amazon (including Kindle Unlimited) this Monday. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...

Brag about something you've done this year! Survived. Kept my house. Avoided bankruptcy. The family vehicles still run. Maintained some level of self respect. Let people know they are truly important to me.

Has it changed? I don't know. I do know that a former co-worker told me about working at a Birmingham radio station years ago and a lonely woman from Cullman called him to chat every night. She always talked about how great Cullman was because "We ain't got no n*****s." He was Black, BTW.

I'm not sure if any of my writing friends use or have considered using Plottr but I'd like to give a public Thank You to the support team. I just transitioned to a new computer and needed help. They took great care of me and I'm back in the swing again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
