Yesterday, Adam from South Dakota called my SiriusXM show to say Charlie Kirk was unalived b/c people on the left use words like racism or facism to describe folks like Charlie.

That call did not end the way he thought it would.

Another lovely day for walkies. I love this road but don't have many days with enough strength for the return uphill hike.
Why are the best paths the most difficult?

Husband asked what I wanted for my birthday. I'm not much for gifts, told him I don't need anything as usual. He brought this home 😁😋
( it's hard to find real donuts here, and he had to drive to the other side of Madrid to get these)

It's the time of year when I see articles telling folks to put pet fur out for bird nesting. The Cornell ornithology lab does not recommend this! Flea/tick treatments & shampoos can be toxic, long fur can entangle chicks, etc. There are much better alternatives: www.allaboutbirds.org/news/providi...

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

This is a really informative thread but I was not prepared for the last post. Wild story all around.
I am a former incarcerated firefighter. I served in a California fire camp from 2009 to 2012.

Misinformation is afire on the internet, so here are facts about the prison firefighter program, all in one place.

A thread.

I have been so happy to hear from former students recently.
I taught them in grades 1 and 2.
Now they're in high school/university. And doing so great.( not suprised, they were great kids)
Teaching was so stressful, but this is what being a teacher is really about.

I'm not very good at photos of food, this is typical Canadian Tourtiere for tonight (Réveillon). And Canadian Nanaimo bars, plus fruitcake.
Merry Christmas to all.

Any other recommendations for good series?

Humans, More than 15,000 years ago, by the light of a bone fire, we forged a pact:
You would feed us, and We would protect you with our lives.
We have honored that vow every single day. But you, humans—you are failing us.

Would you mind giving out some free expert advice?
I want to serve Irish coffee after dinner ( using Bailys). What desert do you think would go with it?

Useful post. Be very very careful to keep lilies completely away from cats AND always cut out the centres. I watched a lovely Bengal die at my vet's surgery after ingesting some pollen and there wasn't a thing the vet could do.
Just in case you weren't aware about toxic plants to kitties during the festive period. 🌱🙏🏼🙀
Lilleshall give me anxiety because Rosie got Into to them and I thought she was a gunner. Luckily the pollen was only on her fur and not ingested. Never again! Please be careful 🙏🏼 ❤️ #cats #toxicplants #pets
