I just saw an online description for a library that said that it was "known for its books."
Damn, I've got to check that place out.

Here's a fun fact for you: Charles Drew, a Black man, is the "father of the blood bank." He figured out how to store, ship and transfuse blood.
But he resigned from the Red Cross because they insisted on "segregating" blood by race.

Trump’s problem is that so many Americans — including his MAGA base — believed that he’d expose a powerful global elite.
But every day it's becoming more and more clear that Trump may actually be part of that global elite.
Expect him to lash out as the walls close in.

Reading Pablo Neruda tonight, to remind myself that I am not the only one to have loved so fiercely.

In this house we ask if someone's games are properly saved when we take turns on the Steam Deck or Switch 2 because we're a loving family who looks after each other's progress.

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

Pleased to announce it's noon, and I have eaten two meals today, baked a loaf of bread, and finished my entire allotment of writing work for the day.
I now must drive to another town to drop off a form like it's 1997.

Local cheesesteak place I hit up for lunch often has a thing where they have 30 free beers available for furloughed federal workers.
Handwritten below that "One per person per day" I asked and yes...there is a reason that was added.

Absolutely devastating for my blood sugar levels that when I simply cannot persuade myself to write something ove been procrastinating the only thing that works is to buy a big bag of haribo and eat it at my desk as I type, getting more and more antsy and typing faster and faster as the sugar hits.
