That one girl. Minnesotan. Probably too old for you. Classic film, #NoirAlley, bourbon, #Skol, #TCMParty. We Got The Beat is my walk-up song. Personal account only, opinions mine only.

And we will soundly reject that idea

Of course he thinks he's the peace president.

"War is peace."
"Ignorance is strength."

I mean, it's RIGHT THERE in the 1984 handbook.

This is repulsive. And chilling. And every day, I thank whatever forces allowed me to raise my children into young adults who thoroughly and utterly reject this kind of ideology, and who speak up about it.

Huh. Gentleman at the bar here seems disappointed that their seasonal brew is an Octoberfest.

So.. it's weird, isn't it? Like a weirder than normal thing to say?

Cathy ⛱️🥃⛱️ @66betty.bsky.social · 2d

Yes! 99 River Street is a favorite of mine.

Cathy ⛱️🥃⛱️ @66betty.bsky.social · 2d

I am sure they are.

Cathy ⛱️🥃⛱️ @66betty.bsky.social · 2d

This is weird, right?

Trump: "I don't think there's anything that's gonna get me in heaven. I think I'm not maybe heaven bound. I may be in heaven right now as we fly on Air Force One. I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to make heaven."

Not as spellbinding and completely unpredictable as the original?

To be fair, I fell in love with William Hurt in Body Heat 🔥

Cathy ⛱️🥃⛱️ @66betty.bsky.social · 2d

I saw it in the theater in the summer of 1985, when I was 19. I loved it.

*sigh* I got on the flight to Atlanta

Cathy ⛱️🥃⛱️ @66betty.bsky.social · 2d

I think you have to

John Payne at his John Payne-ist getting his block knocked around!😂 I painted him last year for #NoirvemberChallenge in The Crooked Way.

Delta, I'd love to fly with you for "the next 100 years", but since I'm already 59, this seems a shade unlikely.

Cathy ⛱️🥃⛱️ @66betty.bsky.social · 2d

I lean toward deliberate gaslighting

Cathy ⛱️🥃⛱️ @66betty.bsky.social · 2d

Nice!

Could be, but I'd guess if that's the case, it's to Bondi again.

Cathy ⛱️🥃⛱️ @66betty.bsky.social · 2d

Love John Payne.

"Any Way You Want It" in elevator jazz is certainly a choice for Delta boarding music. I think I prefer the typical Bridgerton strings.

Cathy ⛱️🥃⛱️ @66betty.bsky.social · 2d

I had a similar experience once flying from Boise to Chicago via MSP due to a verrry tight connection. As soon as I boarded, they shut the door. As soon as I sat down, we started moving.

Cathy ⛱️🥃⛱️ @66betty.bsky.social · 2d

Oh, hey. Just got a Google reminder that I have a flight today that boards in two minutes.

Thanks for the heads up, Google! Might have missed that flight without the 2-minute warning!

I can cross off "Atlanta" on my boarding pass and just write in "Sao Paulo" right?
