GenX hippie chick. Lover of small dogs, sting rays, jangly guitar music, arthouse films, coming-of-age stories, and overthinking pop culture. Blue is the best color.

We are home! France was enchanting. Every day a piece of France remained within me. Back to full time care for my precious mum-in-law. Each day will bring moments to cherish. 96! Just incredible. ...

I really want to see him paste on a big Captain Kangaroo mustache and pretend he just grew it overnight.

Tonight, I heard a failed president desperately casting about for excuses to meddle in the upcoming election if he can, or to discredit the result when he loses decisively, as I expect he will.

No mention of him at all on ABC today. That's gonna bug him worse than negative stories would. He can't stand not being the center of attention!

ABC is absolutely crushing it today with the America Celebrates 250 programming. The National Anthem segment highlighted Jimi Hendrix's version and reminded us that the poem ends with a question mark... Does that star-spangled banner yet wave? Can our nation stay united and live up to its promise???

Because as written, "they" refers to the vows? But the parenthesis doesn't fix that. To make it grammatically correct, "each" should be changed to "Swift and Kelce."

"In a world that is troubled with war and conflict, problems and polarization" is the (redundant and wordy) part that jumps out at me. Like, what exactly would the world be "troubled with" *other* than "problems"? And aren't war, conflict, and polarization all just types of problems?

Completely agree. The Niagara Falls segment mentioned the Underground Railroad, including the fact that the people seeking freedom from enslavement in America had to cross the dangerous Niagara River. The Yellowstone segment makes note of the all-Black Buffalo soldiers. I'm here for it! 🇺🇸

Emily M Weinstein seems like a horrible, hateful person with zero empathy, compassion or self-awareness. Why would I ever want to read a memoir by that type of person?

Georgia Senate passes bill that could permanently put an end to changing clocks for daylight saving
Springing forward and falling back may be a thing of the past for Georgia if a plan by lawmakers ends up working out.

It's been brought to my attention that possibly this pillow was in fact meant to be purchased exclusively by kings. In which case, "I AM KING" is not a typo and I stand corrected.

Not impossible, just slightly more complicated. Here's one way you could go about it. Are there other types of books you want to read more of? Put together a list and ask people to recommend books that meet one or more of the criteria. That way, you don't know for sure which books are which! Voila!

Sen. Jon Ossoff, who is Jewish and faces a tough re-election in Georgia, joined 20 other Senators in a letter urging the Trump administration to suspend support for the Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation and resume support for UN food distrbution. www.cbsnews.com/news/gaza-st...

Senate Democrats urge U.S. to stop funding GHF, resume support for U.N. food distribution in Gaza as more starve
Senate Democrats told the secretary of state they have "grave concerns" about the U.S. role in financing GHF, the main group distributing aid in Gaza.

I don't know about the "only" part, which kind of makes it sound like he was reluctant to do it. Probably more like he raped girls to impress Epstein AND because he doesn't see women or girls as people whose bodies belong to them and not him.

Champagne Problem of the Day: PreviDent helps my sensitive teeth, but the packaging is annoying AF. Who designed this? I have to hold its giant hinged cap open while wrestling my toothbrush into place and then try to squeeze paste onto the brush without getting it all over the cap and/or the sink. 🤬
