Book27of'25: Master of writing. This book tells the tale of love,loss,forgiveness & redemption. To be complete...we need to make peace with ourselves, our past, our choices, & the people we hurt along the way. No matter how ugly, forgiveness makes anew all things. 📚💙

Newsom’s social media team is killing it. (This isn’t an old picture. It’s from right now. I asked.) 😂😂😂😂

Best image of the day:

These are the people that make America great 🇲🇽🇺🇸

Book26of'25: My respect to Sherri Chrichton for getting her husband's manuscript written by James Patterson & published. Had to be a difficult undertaking, but it made for a good book. Makes me wonder what ways we can destroy ourselves. Nature always wins though.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

The #MAGAMurderBudget is going to kill people.

DID YOU KNOW? 101 years ago, the Indian Citizenship Act unilaterally extended U.S. citizenship to Native Americans, creating dual citizenship for members of Native Nations. This was a milestone, but Native folks continue to face barriers to voting, even today.

Book25of'25: This is an excellent read. I'm officially a Blake Crouch fan. Puts humanity&the question of our compassion in question. Do we care enough to save future generations? What will it take? Or do we go on as nothing is happening and meet our end? 💙📚

We find each other through the centuries.

A Southern elephant seal makes a surprise visit to the residential neighborhood of Gordon's Bay in Cape Town, South Africa, and triggers an almost nine-hour rescue effort to return him to the coast.

Something spicy & delicious as a taco has gotten under Trumplestiltkin's thin tangerine skin. Seems the master of mean, juvenile nicknames can dish them out but when directed towards him, he can't take it, angrily calling it "nasty."🤣 Good to know. (you know what to do!) 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮

I just realized the 1990s are now the 1970s! Same nostalgia for the music, the actors, that time on the precipice of everything now.

213 Killed In How Do You Pronounce That?

CBS reporter Scott Pelley: This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”. If you haven’t already shared this, please do.

If Putin doesn’t watch out, Trump might be forced to go ALL CAPS on him.

Book24of'25: Awesome book. Very well written...keeps you guessing to the end. Vera Wong is probably one of the most memorable characters ever written. We are only as old as we feel, especially important after age 50. 😊 📚💙

Yes please. Origami Ballet - Agnes Obel - "The Curse"

“Everyone has to make everything in the United States, or else!” he yells… as his family signs deal after deal for golf courses in other countries… and he accepts hundreds of millions in crypto bribes from unidentified foreign actors…

I believe in science

This is a view from the surface of Comet 67P. The busy particles in the foreground are cosmic rays or bits of dust and ice. The dots moving in the background are stars.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Book23of'25: This is how novels are supposed to be written from beginning to end. Anne Tyler is absolutely brilliant; master of her craft always. I enjoyed this book immensely. Tyler writes about ordinary people & makes us remember the magic of being alive...fuĺly, to the brim.

Medicare cut. Medicaid gone. Social Security .... next.

Here’s an idea: Stop acting like the Gestapo.
