I graduated 30 years ago with a degree in art history & a focus on Italian Renaissance architecture. That stuff works its way into your dreams. My brain was still thinking about what I was studying, along with the muffin I wanted to get before class. Thus, dreams of Brunelleschi’s blueberry muffin 😂

I don’t even use food words with her. If I’m in the kitchen or just get up, she’s up and leading the way. She knows “sit”, which I really only use to get her leashed up to go out, but she’s usually too busy losing her damn mind with excitement to stay sitting. Every. Time. 🤦🏼♀️

It was a recommended read to incoming freshmen when I started at Tulane University in 1990. It was disturbing then, but I never imagined things would get to this point.

Or the methed-out white guys are going to be stealing materials to sell off, like people going through stripping out copper.

I indirectly work in the US new home construction industry through marketing. I’m in Italy but my clients are in the US. Even I could see this coming if the felon got elected, and I think some saw the reality right after the election. I’m worried about my own job, and the greater economic impact.
