I love to read (mostly romance) & spend time with my family. I've always been an avid reader, but over the last several years as I've had many health issues crop up, reading has kept me sane. https://allingoodtimeblog.wordpress.com/

Summer is around the corner. It may be a busy time, but I'll still be reading. Here are some of the books on my Summer 2025 TBR list. #TopTenTuesday #romancereader #TBR allingoodtimeblog.wordpress.com/2025/06/17/t...

Trump says mass deportations are urgent—but not if they mess with his donors’ pockets. ICE was told to back off farms & hotels 'cause it was bad for business. But LA and Chicago? Open season. Please be for real—this is the weaponization of government against cities that refuse to bow down to him.

So based on numbers , the Taco parade wouldn't have filled a fifth of Michigan Stadium The Big House. The No Kings rallies would have filled over 98 Michigan Stadiums. To give some perspective.

It's more pathetic than I even dared dream. 😂 He fantasized about a show of power and a clash with protestors and violence ... And instead everyone is at a different party. Laughing at him.

Born in 1975, I represent the one generation of women who had rights. I’m fighting for my daughters and granddaughters. Fuck this shit.

If the United States saw what the United States is doing in the United States, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

If you are a fan of #historicalromance and haven't read A Matter of Class yet, go do that right now. This weekend. Make it a priority. Such a masterfully crafted story. #romancereader #bookreview allingoodtimeblog.wordpress.com/2025/06/13/a...

REMINDER: The United States was already part of a deal to keep Iran's nuclear ambitions in check: the JCPOA. And it was WORKING. But trump yanked us out of that deal, and as a result, Iran is MUCH closer to having nukes, and we are on the brink of war because of his stupidity.

June 12 is the anniversary of the Women’s Armed Services Integration Act of 1948 which allowed women to serve as permanent members of the Military. We are grateful today, and every day, for the women who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces.

#WWWWednesday W - What are you currently reading? W - What did you recently finish reading? W - What do you think you'll read next? Here are my answers to those questions for both my eyes and my ears. How about you? #romancereader #amreading allingoodtimeblog.wordpress.com/2025/06/11/w...

I’m so jealous! I can’t believe we still haven’t seen any fire flies yet. Soon, I hope.

MAGA: “The 2nd Amendment guarantees a militia to fight tyranny!” Also MAGA: “It’s fine that Trump seized California’s National Guard against the governor’s will.” You can’t have it both ways. Read why this matters. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/a-well-reg...

Denying people their 1st Amendment rights. Shocker.

this is good

“We served a nation—not a king, a bully, or a dictator.” — U.S. Navy Veteran Rusty Hicks Trump has federalized the Guard, threatened governors, and now wants active-duty Troops in our streets. This isn’t about safety. It’s about control.

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

Dear US Marines, Please DO NOT obey unlawful orders from this lawless President. Do the right thing. Sincerely, America

Watch the slow motion: it appears to me that the officers discuss the photographer and reporter before the one on the end fires on them (it looks to me like he's aiming at the camera, not the reporter, but you decide)

A video explaining the terms about federalization of the Guard, the difference between the Guard, Reserves, and Active Duty, and when the guard or active duty can engage in law enforcement. Hint: the guard as activated in Calif cannot. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/video-expl...

ATTN: If you’re a member of the National Guard or you work for ICE and you’re asked to violate the law or your oath, contact Whistleblower Aid to safely, securely, and legally blow the whistle. You can support Whistleblower Aid HERE: whistlebloweraid.org/beans

there are powers that will do everything they can to convince you otherwise, but it should be said loudly that protest proves love. community is a conduit for love and oppression seeks to crush community. standing up to say no is an act of love

Tonight in LA, there are people hiding in garages, attics and basements because they're scared to be rounded up by ICE, denied due process, and transported to concentration camps. Sound familiar?

By the way a military parade when we’re not celebrating a war victory is something a dude who never served would do.

Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

Amazing. Respect the lede.

We were spared the embarrassment.

Want You Back #bookreview A great start to Annabeth Albert's new Second Chance Ranch series. #contemporaryromance #secondchanceromance #LGBTQIAromance #romancereader allingoodtimeblog.wordpress.com/2025/06/03/w...

Really poignant piece of street art from artist TopZ out of Seattle!

The reason we need to defeat Republicans is to keep trans people safe. If you’re willing to abandon trans people to beat Republicans that means you’ve decided to start by losing, and you’ve taken a path that won’t even beat Republicans in the election you’ve chosen to make meaningless.

If you find yourself fighting with other Dems about Biden, keep in mind that Tapper and the corporate media are part of the oligarchy, and they want us fighting.

The Past (Bluegrass Empires) #bookreview I kind of thought this series was over, and never would have guessed it needed this story to be told. This book turned out to be my favorite of the bunch. #romancereader #historicalromance allingoodtimeblog.wordpress.com/2025/06/02/t...

Spring will soon turn to Summer. Time to read in the hammock, sit on the patio with iced tea and a book, and read on long car rides while someone else drives. And while you're at it, remember to support LGBTQIA+ rights all year long. 📖😎 #SpellTheMonthInBooks #romancereader #bookblogger

🏳️‍🌈HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!!!❤️ LOVE IS LOVE.💙

Fuck every single person who voted for this outcome and continue to support this evil. No humanity.

** Evidence You Might Be In A Cult ** You follow one charismatic Leader. In your Leader’s mind, your Leader can do no wrong. In your mind, your Leader can do no wrong. Your Leader demonizes dissidents & outsiders. Loyalty's the ultimate measure of your devotion. You don't know you're in a Cult

She not only doubled down, she reveled in her evil.

WT actual F?!? I will never understand veterans who still support this administration. Never. How do you still think he gives a crap about you?

Rustler Mountain #bookreview This romance does a lot of heavy lifting, and I'm here for it. #contemporaryromance #romancereader allingoodtimeblog.wordpress.com/2025/05/30/r...

Here’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country. Otherwise, it’s just racism.

Republicans were all in favor of the courts or the Senate standing in the way of a President's agenda when that President was Obama or Biden, they can get all the way fucked now that the shoe is on the other fucking foot.

The USA is barely recognizable after 4 months; if you think you can sit on the sidelines and it will be handed back to you in four years you are out of your mind.
