Welcome to Texas. My geckos just hang around near doorframes or just outside. I try not to hurt them because they’re on guard duty lunching on any bugs trying to get in. 😊

We need another company like HeathKit, to churn out stuff we can build ourselves and cut big insurers and manufacturers out of the loop for our health care equipment.

I was truly living this with breakfast burritos. At least the 1st part. But the roof of my mouth wouldn't heal so fast. I finally just stopped buying them. setting a timer before starting eating them just wasn't enough.

Doesn’t take much for this one. I’ve flown over Mount Fuji on international flights (like Shanghai to LAX). This is waaayyy out of proportion vs reality. So easy to spot this as fake.

"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'" These words — spoken by MLK Jr. shortly before he was killed on this day in 1968 — ring just as true now. Let's honor his legacy by continuing the fight for social and economic justice.

We have one scheduled for 2am pickup for a 5am international flight. I wish we had a 6am, but we have a connection in DFW for an overseas flight. When you gotta go, you gotta go 😔😎😉

On Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom and recommit ourselves to the work that remains undone. We remember that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope for tomorrow’s light.

(This was 9 or 10 years ago. Many other rentals driven , US and Canada, without any of that first-time confusion. )

It wasn’t On at the beginning. That situation was trying to start a rental car I was unfamiliar with. I think I had pushed the Start button with the brake pedal pressed, and didn’t understand why I didn’t hear an engine.

I think what finally helped was seeing the dashboard looking like 'normal', so that made me try just putting it in gear. Voila!

That one might have been a Toyota. But I do remember it was on a business trip. I'd pushed the button to turn it on. And was perplexed I didn't hear or feel anything. (I'd driven hybrids where the engine starts, and turns off later when not needed.)

Some years ago, my first time in an electric (or hybrid) rental car, spent some time trying to figure out how to turn it on. It was On all that time, just silently; had to just put it in gear. Glad there weren't any witnesses. 😜

On 6 June 1944, while Americans were fighting at Omaha Beach, Canadians were fighting at Juno Beach. Our brothers, who fought and died by our side – who helped us defeat Fascism, are not our enemy. They are our true friends. Canadians are our brothers and sisters and I stand with them 100%.

Attacking a portion of the American population for no objective reason. Makes sense, for someone who’s anti-American in their actions.

As the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wisely said, "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." Today and every day, I pledge to never silence my voice in the fight for what is right, and I will continue to march in the path he forged toward justice.

I don’t think Kamala Harris has been thanked enough for the responsibility she was burdened with and the grace with which she handled it. A lot could have gone differently, but she should hold her head high. She more than met the moment. Thank you, Madam Vice President.

The wider context I bet is too “meta” for a lot of people. I certainly agree it’s way more than about TFG, but so many don’t see past the basics.

In case you haven’t figured it out yet, like most stuff Trump sells, voting for him is just a con. He’ll do the pomp and circumstance of an inauguration (can’t resist) but it’ll be President Vance. Trump gets a pardon and the GOP gets a true fascist to execute Project 2025. Vote accordingly ✊🏼🗳️🌊
