Still nothing....
Very frustrating, as I'm sure you know.
Wondering if I should just pass on pitching today, rather than fighting to follow when the platform is sideways.

We are not up against legislators in Congress fighting over healthcare or energy or consumable goods, we are up against a regime running step-by-step according to a detailed far right blueprint to reform the US government.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Please share this !!!
NSPM-7 Memorandum on countering domestic terrorism & organized political violence. The broad language included allows the government to label people as potentially political violent . It would allow the government to arrest people before they do anything illegal. PLEASE REPOST!

Just an FYI: We’re not facing a “government shutdown.” This is a Trump-MAGA Republican shutdown. Call it what it is.

Thank you so much for the reply. My Ethernet card died. I have a temp solution with a USB wi-fi adapter. I’ll get the job done then crack open the case for a better solution.
Thank you.
It is much appreciated.

This is the fourth time that on a major project -
Suddenly my computer has no Internet - It can't even find the ethernet card!
And Bluetooth has died! It can't find the Bluetooth adapter either.

Windows 11 sucks!

This is how people try to erase trauma. To defend abusers, to minimize your experience, to feel better... etc.
It all says the same thing - What happened to you isn't important.

Funny how people are just starting to catch on about this. I called it in 2015.

Better late than never?
Or is it too late?

Well, guess those flashbacks have some use.

Hated!!! Hated!!! Writing that scene.
