I will say "Gay!" all day long.

And "YMCA" is a gay anthem.

If you have Disney+, I recommend "Into the Unknown: Making Frozen II."

It's a 6-part docuseries about the last year of making the movie.

Whether you like the Frozen movies or not, it's a fascinating look into what it takes to make an animated film. It's so much more complex than I ever imagined.

Republicans vigorously defended Kyle Rittenhouse when he murdered two people with an AR15, but they wanted Hunter Biden to go to jail over lying on a form.

The fact that Republicans will just switch positions whenever it benefits them is why I think Biden's pardon was justified.

~I was in JROTC for four years. I was BN S-1 and selected as BDE S-2.
~I've earned medals.
~I've fired an M-16 & an M-60 at Camp Pendleton.
~My father was a Master Chief in the Navy.
~I've walked on an aircraft carrier & a submarine.

It seems like that makes me qualified to be Sec of Defense.

The eyes of a psychopath and the eyes of the person the orange twatwaffle wants to make the head of the FBI.

I think it's hard to tell the difference.

Other people: "Wicked is so good! But the book is always better than the movie. I need to read the book now."

Me: "It's a fabulous book! But...Gird your loins. It is very, very, VERY different. And do **NOT** let your children read this book!!!!"

I barely make eye contact with people in public restrooms.

So I sure as hell don't want to look at their genitals.

Just go in, do your business, WASH YOUR HANDS, and get out.

Mind ya own bizness!

I read and reviewed this book 11 years ago. But it has stayed with me.

Sandra Moran became a good friend. When cancer took her away from us in Nov 2015, our community lost an amazing woman. I lost a fantastic friend.

Her books are available on that big website.

Sometimes, I need to turn my thoughts away from the current state of the world—okay, the current state of U.S. politics.

So, I turn my thoughts to Cyd Charisse and Gene Kelly. But mostly Cyd Charisse.
