I want a robot who dusts and sorts laundry, not one that plays with children and puppies or steals the jobs of writers, poets, and artists.

As a Detroit Tigers fan, neither team deserves to lose game five. And my poor husband is out cold on the couch next to me. This is a very long game and it’s getting late here in Michigan.

It has been hitting dairy farms all over the US in the states that test for it. Probably in the ones that don’t test for it, too, of course, though we cannot know. And has a very high fatality rate in domestic cats. 🐈 😞

The Republicans are a literal death cult. I am not saying this lightly. This is not snark.

The mind boggles at how he would explain autism in females. On second thought, I don’t want to know. 😖

They need to be held to the same attendance standards as regular federal employees.

Dementia is a terrible thing. And it will continue to get worse and worse as time goes by.

I sat outside in the sunshine this afternoon and listened to the birds and the bugs.

His dementia is getting worse by the day. No telling how much he can comprehend.

I was working in Ann Arbor the night Obama was elected. People ran out into the street screaming with joy. They were dancing and running and the entire city turned into a street party. Trump’s death might eclipse even that.

I hope this is true. I am beyond weary of seeing well paid politicians betray us all in covering for systemic sexual abuse of children by the wealthy and powerful.

This is Eeyore. He led a sheriff's deputy to his grandma after she fell during their walk. We are awarding him the incredibly rare 15/10 (FB: OkaloosaSheriff)

And the Pennsylvania governor’s house. Not to mention assassinating state legislators in Minnesota and shooting up/burning down a church in Michigan. Oh, and shooting podcasters in the neck…

The blessing should go to my husband and adult children who have built a very hidden secret room in our home. We are ready as soon as someone needs us.

It’s up to us. We need to save ourselves and each other. We need to all think deeply about what we can do. Can we demonstrate? Can we give shelter to a vulnerable person? Can we support our local food kitchens and homeless shelters? There are many ways we can contribute.

The big question is whether this was an intentional hit on this woman by government agents? Because it sure sounds like a possibility.

I am not able bodied, so rather than fighting, I am ready to hide endangered people in my home. Takes a lot of people doing a lot of things.
