And there it is. Putin’s lifelong dream. After years of relentless Russian propaganda, now fully embraced by the American president and the world’s richest oligarch, millions of Americans are convinced that this is a good plan because Europe is an enemy and Putin is our friend.

american masculinity is so amazing. caring about clothes as a man apparently makes you "gay" but our position on geopolitics totally depends on whether you wear a suit

We just watched Trump & Vance do Putin’s bidding in the Oval Office & it was horrific. Not even two months into this administration & it’s a disaster for the free world.

Hello #GenHour. I'm working on a blog post about my Allpress ancestors from Fenstanton. Rivers Allpress was briefly in Newgate prison for theft. He's described as 5'10" dark complexion, black hair, and black eyes, which is helpful as I have no photos from this generation #genealogy #FamilyHistory

One of the local historical societies I follow in Illinois posted on FB that we need to start planning for the 250th anniversary of American Independence, which will be next year. Uhhhh... 😳

Ended up on the wrong side of TikTok tonight where MAGA women are spreading a conspiracy theory that Brgitte Macrn is a man. With everything else going on, this nonsense is what they're focused on 🤦🏼‍♀️

If you're wondering if you should watch the new Bridget Jones movie, the answer is yes!! It's very entertaining and touching with a great cast and soundtrack. I almost cried at multiple points in the film. 🥹🦉

Great episode. The Rubén Blades story in particular and research into his Panamanian roots was fascinating! #genealogy www.pbs.org/video/latin-...

While ya'll are watching The Superbowl, I'm watching a documentary on sea lampreys invading The Great Lakes (narrated by J. K. Simmons). We are not the same. 😆 🤓

Per White House official on X, Trump fired the 11th Archivist of the United States tonight. Gor gave no rationale nor cause. Federal law requires President to communicate the reasons for any removal to Congress: uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?r.... Sad. She was leading reforms. 1st woman to be AOTUS.

To take my mind off things, I binged One Day (2024) on Netflix yesterday. It absolutely destroyed me. Was a nice diversion/distraction though...

Yesterday at a FamilySearch affiliate library I finally found some digitized records that had been eluding me (probate records for the Peculiar of Isleham, Cambs). I swear I looked for these earlier and couldn't find them so maybe they were recently added? #genealogy #familyhistory

Last year my uncle died of pancreatic cancer. His viewing was open casket. It should have been closed. I had never before seen a body in that state and it was pretty traumatic, but even worse was the commentary of a MAGA and RFK Jr fan family member at this viewing...

Please don't go to the gym if you are sick. On Monday morning at Orangetheory I was stuck on an assigned treadmill station next to a girl who was coughing the entire time. Now who's coughing? Me. 😑

Help! I’m very keen to speak to people who attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in the 1960s. Students will probably be in their 80s now. Perhaps your parent, uncle, aunt, grandparents did? Very grateful for any shares! Particularly in the US.
