What’s the purpose of making an appointment for TSA Pre if I’m just supposed to stand in line behind walk-ins while my appointment time ticks by?

My mother didn’t recognize me today. She kept asking for my sister (I don’t have one). #dementia

The irony is that a century ago, the exact same kind of religious bigotry that Cuomo’s embraced down the stretch — we can’t elect someone from that faith or they’ll impose it on all of us! — was aimed squarely at Catholics like Cuomo.
Boy Mamdani's race is really a vivid reminder that anti-Islamic bigotry is 100% accepted in US public discourse. People don't even bother dog whistling, it's just right out in the open.

My mom’s dementia has progressed so that she’s forgotten:

1. Dad died 25 years ago.

2. She quit smoking 20 years ago (she’s now demanding I buy her a pack of ciggies).

3. She has cancer (slow-moving thyroid cancer, but still…)

So…mixed bag. Forgetting about cancer is a blessing.

My mom asked me where my father was, and I had to tell her that he died 25 years ago. #Dementia sucks.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈
