Brandy chocolate truffles.
He says there aren’t enough for us to taste test.
I, for one, give him an F. Hmmmph

Spent the weekend putting together a dresser, separating our clothes between the 2 dressers, clearing out the pantry, purging closets, and finding space to put small appliances away behind a closed door.
Still no sign of the trash bags

Dementia is fucking expensive 1/17 edition. I bought a box of 80 trash bags this week.
They’re gone. Vaporized. I’ve looked in all the halfway logical places. Gonna need to buy another box as we are out of trash bags.
I just know they’ll turn up in a laundry hamper or something next week

Priest’s homily today was about MLK, about how catholic means universal, about what we’re called to do and how we fall short but we have to get back up and do better.
That everyone is a child of God. Of every race, ethnicity, nationality, religion (or lack of religion). That we’re called to love

Someone talk me out of donating 95% of our books and getting rid of our bookcase in favor of a recliner
Harsh truth is I don’t have the time to read everything I want to. And husband is not able to functionally read anymore. We have some built in bookshelves for whatever I can make time for

I’ve been saying for a while now, don’t follow them around chanting “shame! Shame!” They have no shame.
Follow them around chanting “Loser! Loooooooooser!”
Follow them around chanting “Loser! Loooooooooser!”
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
It occurs to me all the yelling at ICE in MPLS isn't merely funny. Getting made fun of like this is awful for morale. ICE is losing field officers faster than it can wave them through training, and a big part of it is how little of this these little weasels can take.

It’s worth considering that an overnight dismantling of ICE in 2029 would release into the wild a whole herd of specialists in violence with scant other marketable skills.
