Cranky old woman who loves books and cats and decent human beings.
Local people who have the resources to share, your support is needed by those impacted by trump's policies. Thank you.

Rather than posting about the next awful thing this administration has done, I want to boost those people and organizations that are trying to work for the common good. Join me.

Here in the US, gas and groceries cost more. Tariffs increase our costs. Overseas, our buying power drops.

Are we great yet? Asking for my friends...

It's hard to find these in dark times. But if you need a little, I'm here for you. Share your love and light when and where you can. Each act of kindness and compassion for others, no matter how small, lights the way for others and brings hope. Don't be afraid. You are not alone.

Words of encouragement for these difficult days. Do the small, kind thing. Baby steps. Little things add up to big change.

People talking about indoctrination need to read this book if they haven't yet. "Educated" by Tara Westover is one woman's journey from indoctrination of homeschooling to the broader minded world of public schooling and universities.

People talking about colleges as indoctrination of ideas, and promoting the benefits of home schooling instead, need to read this book. It is one woman's story of being home-schooled and how being in the larger world opened her mind. "Educated" by Tara Westover.

We still have far to go.

Move back and forth into the change.

Dear Elon,

Here is a list of qualities you are lacking. All the money in the world cannot buy these things, and that is why you will never be happy.

Sincerely,
The Whole World

Learned something new today. Imagine a world (not just our nation) based on the values of education, hard work, and Tikkun Olam.
What if all people (regardless of religious affiliation) tried to make the world more peaceful, just, and equitable? We are here to be the hands, feet, and voice of love.

No Christmas porridges 🥣 to share with the kitties. Crepes with apples and Calvados brandy in the syrup. Merry Crepe-day to you!
