They totally did and I despise them all for the damaged they have caused.👇

Just me banging on again that BROADWAY employs more people than coal.

From the reading front: finished "Diviner's Bow" by Sharon Lee + Steve Miller, another lovely entry in the wonderful Liaden Universe. The characters are persons of good heart and have come to feel like my friends, which makes the books very cheering. Also, norbears. www.baen.com/diviner-s-bo... 📖🦙

Kidnapping. Capturing a person against their will without due process is called kidnapping. Transporting them to another country without due process is called human trafficking. A squalid extrajudicial prison for people found guilty of no crime is called a concentration camp.

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Just to remind you Trump looks like a clown

I won't link to the Washington examiner but they posted story about Ted Cruz saying he wanted to pull the fire alarm to shut up Booker.

Sorry, can’t stop.

This is one fugly white boy!!!

Bringing this back for Trans Day of Visibility. Abracadabra bitch you are LOVED 💕🏳️‍⚧️💕

Someone I know cancelled their trip to the US because, according to them, "it looks too crazy over there." He lives in Pakistan, folks.

8 Red Crescent paramedics in Gaza were HANDCUFFED, THEN >summarily executed by occupation forces while trying to carry out their humanitarian duties & respond to an emergency call to assist wounded victims following Israeli airstrikes.< They WEREN'T "collateral damage" in an attack on "terrorists"!

I'm kind of stuck with Facebook but I should talk to Candy about moving FANNISH WIDOWS to a more agnostic platform* now. (We don't recruit for new members, but if you qualify, we welcome you.) I have stopped getting WaPo, & left "X" & avoid Amazon as much as I can. Boycott with me!

I'm sad I'm not recovering in Dave's guest bedroom or chilling with a dog. That said, I had a rough pain night, but took a shower, put on clean clothes, & napped. Then I put in earbuds & walked .3 miles around & near my building. Playlist available on request. Eating Pat Cadigan's lunch now (snack).

"Everyone has talent. What is rare is the courage to follow the talent to the dark place where it leads." "Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn't." Born on this day novelist & poet Erica Jong 1942 Jong is best known for her 1973 novel Fear of Flying #BookSky

*Born on March 26th: Erica Jong, Leonard Nimoy, and Nancy Del'Assandro Pelosi. Also, March 26th: the day I got engaged. And I may have conceived my first child on that date.

Sigh. On Wednesday, I looked up Erica Jong in honor of her birthday* and wondered what she was up to. Nothing recently published, but she's 83 now, and her keeper husband died recently, so maybe she's too sad and tired to write. Nope. Dementia per her daughter's upcoming book. So sad.

Imagine 3+ plus months feeling like your arm has wretched out of your socket and badly put back in. Imagine weeks of intermittent sleep because of a wrong roll while asleep. I try to be cheerful but right now going to cry.

Plus, whatever labs and other tests, whose cost I'll find out months after. Best. Healthcare. In. The. World. 3/3

Once again, my surgery is delayed. I've been offered an early May date for surgery. I first asked for surgery in January. Once again, visits to the GP, the cardiologist, the neurologist, maybe even the oncologist, all with visits at $40 a pop. 2/3

LISTEN LIVE: DOJ asks the DC Circuit Court of Appeals to lift Judge Boasberg's temporary restraining order preventing the deportation—without due process—of Venezuelans accused of being members of the criminal gang Tren de Aragua. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DoT...

It also exists because we had a teacher in the White House, and he had experience teaching in a school with poor children. If only he had the guts to pull out of Vietnam and established Dept. of Ed. instead of waiting for the next Dem to come along.
