Let’s sit beneath The willow tree Hidden from view Of the reach of #Death On a long summers day I wish I pray Though his knock is certain Someday someday In the meantime May the branches of willow Grow longer and longer Shading away our sorrow #vss365

“Too much #luggage, too much luggage...” “You’re not making sense. What do you mean?” “That’s a lot of luggage.” “Are you going to travel?” “No. I’m not going anywhere. I have too much luggage to want to start a new path.” “It’s never too late...” “That’s a lie. I have too much luggage.” #vss365

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are closing Social Security offices, firing the workers, and even shutting down the phone lines. Today I pressed Trump's Social Security nominee if missing checks are just another way to cut benefits. He didn't know... Well I do — I'm voting NO.
