Appeasing Putin by giving him part of Ukraine -- without Ukraine's consent -- sounds so damn familiar. Is it dejavu? Maybe I'm thinking of the time in 1938 when the Allies handed Hitler part of Czechoslovakia -- without consent -- so he wouldn't attack the rest of Europe. That worked so well!

Check out the app "5 Calls," which is how many times to call to Congress daily. They provide scripts for issues like the Musk coup and USAID. I called the 3 in my delegation -- got a polite, live human at my rep's office, a machine at one senator's and busy signal at the other. I'll keep it up!

Seems strange that Bashar al-Assad and Edward Snowden have ended up in the same place.

Do you give your dog leftovers after Thanksgiving? If not, do you feel guilty?

Happy Thanksgiving from a total newbie -- not even a former Twitterer. BlueSky is encouraging me to post for the first time. I will do so in order to remind its algorithm that although cats are fine by me, I'm really a dog person. This is Reuben.
