Hanging out and trying to not let stupid crap harsh my mellow. Waiting for 2028 in hopes we still have something left to work with.

I ate an entire box of Girl Scout Thin Mint Cookies yesterday afternoon. The. WHOLE. Box. I think they put two fewer cookies in the box every year, but I cannot resist. I'll spend the next few weeks scurrying past GS cookie tables.

Wearing my special sweatshirt in honor of Hedgehog Day tomorrow. Oh, waaait...

This is perfect explanation

Well. Just saying.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps. The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years. History is repeating. Pay attention.

As we remember Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, we renew our pledge to keep his dream alive. Dr. King devoted his life to others, reminding us "human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable. Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, + struggle." Let's work for justice.

Just so.

I spend so little time on FB that I only know people are fleeing. I can't seem to whip up much enthusiasm about being here, though. *sigh*

Is this a sweet face, or what?!?! Love my babies!

Sunday sunset.

A steak that is well-done, is anything but. Can I start a campaign to find a more fitting name? "Inedible" would do.

This is Rosie's normal "Mom, get up" creep and squish.

It might have snowed.

An eye for an eye, and we all go blind.

While vaccines are still available in the US, if you’re old enough to get it, PLEASE get the shingles vaccine. If you get it in the wrong nerve bundle, you can end up blind, or in the case of on the sacrum, unable to urinate, and unable to contain ones bowels. It’s not pretty. Protect yourself /1

For reference and interest.

Festive nails at the doctor's office. Oh yeah, festive pants, too.

I hope the Senate hears this important message.

It was a truly magnificent sunset last night. (Cooling towers/cloud makers blurry, photo taken at 55)

Guys, DO NOT click links OR CALL PHONE NUMBERS in emails! Contact the purported vendor directly through their website or public switchboard--or just ignore that scam. In this case, the links look real (and might be but are unrelated to the issue) but they hope you'll call their scam call center.

This little piggy broke into a new bag of kibble and ate half a pound before she got caught. She has no regrets, even if she does look pregnant!

Rosie is happy to have me at home today.

I should be sleeping - back to work tomorrow after 5 days off. Instead... just finished Earth Girls Are Easy, and onto Tank Girl. Wheeeee!

Medianoches in the air fryer. Officially Proclaimed Pretty Good.

You know what these two rich men have in common besides being named to positions by Trump within a day of each other? They are the father-in-laws to his two daughters, Ivanka and Tiffany. Such brazen, mob boss nepotism.

Happy December! Listening to "Pandora" by Natalie Haynes. Quit the airon Druid around book 8 or 9, started several other books but needed something else.

It really is a lovely arrangement. He put some thought into it.

Notre Dame Cathedral has been closed to the public since a fire damaged the landmark in April 2019.

Current background noise: Richard Ayoade's Travel Man. It's a delicious follow-up to Gadget Man. m.imdb.com/title/tt4719...

I think this qualifies as "cold."

Trump wants this conspiracy theorist and obstructionist to head the FBI. He’ll have to fire Chris Wray mid term to get Kash Patel in. This is a very dangerous installment of a MAGA loyalist and political bomb thrower.
