Everything that's not Italian in my DNA results is from Marge's side of the family--Scott, English, German, Irish.

Haha. Do you know what percentage Irish you are?

Everyone's in a ditch in my first-case scenario playbook. But no: they're not.

Omg, that's perfect! In our house, the orange Maine coon is the is goofy one who's halfway on the couch, or between the cushions, or something other doofy thing.

You're my people.

What prize?

What's the pitch? (You can DM or text or email it to me if you want)

There's too much in this world that tries to diminish our value, our strength, our goodness. Someone subtweeting or vague booking or whatever doesn't deserve space in your head and your heart.

I'm a good hugger!
But man, am I tired.

I've been trying to respond to this, and the only things I have to say are agree with you about how horrible everything is, instead of helping you feel better
February 28, 2025 at 10:55 PM
Doesn't What's App allow that?

Please don't die anytime soon.

I so agree! I want both--reading and conversation. It's a rare audience member who can sustain interest in a reading for much longer than 10 minutes (what do the studies say, you lose most people after 12?). I like to do a video or PowerPoint that relates t the text too.

I LOVE THIS! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

You're right, it is what media was like (I say as rack my brain for examples that aren't any of the things you mentioned). I guess that's a good conversation to have--hey, look what was considered ok back then. The 80s were even worse. 😳

There's one scene in particular with Jordan . . . I think you'll know it when you see it. But I still adore this show to no end, and will never get over its premature cancellation.

The cishet dudes on that show do NOT hold up.
(I was interviewed about it for a textbook, of all things)

A well balanced meal 💜💜💜
Love her.
