Often snarky, unfiltered Blue dot in Texas, climate, fur babies, cooking, gardening, genealogy, & junk sales. I care deeply about the world I live in and everyone I share it with. Everyone has the right to live their best life. Love is love.

Pastor: I said to this ICE agent, 'Take me, stop harassing her.' The agent got in my face, pointed a gun at me, and said, 'Are you afraid now?' To which I said, 'I am not afraid.'
