Sometimes I wonder how people can fall for the bs trump says, but then today at lunch, I overheard a coworker talking about how, at the start of COVID, her doctor told her to never wear a mask because if she did get sick, the mask would keep the germs contained in her and make her 10x sicker

I was out at the No Kings protest last Saturday, and I forgot to put sunscreen on the back of my knees. Terrible place to get a bad sunburn!

Sen. Amy Klobuchar dined with Melissa Hortman, a Minnesota lawmaker and decades-long friend, just hours before she and her husband were shot and killed in what authorities are saying was a politically motivated killing.
“I wish everyone had known her like we knew her,” Klobuchar told POLITICO.

I needed something that wasn't all, you know (gestures wildly), so I decided to binge the show "Fleabag" in 2 days. I'm not sure what state I'm in, but I don't think "okay" is it. I think that'll stay with me for a while.
But at least it's got me focused on something other than this administration!

My least favorite part of writing books is the endings. I don't want to get rid of these characters, so I delay the endings of their stories until I eventually just not writing anything for a while. Anyone have any tips to help with that?
