Interesting article about 2 missing newborn giraffes from a small zoo in Virginia. Alicia Silverstone is offering $50K for information leading to the whereabouts of the giraffes. I feel bad for them being away from their mothers as well as fear for their wellbeing.

My Governor. Since Durbin isn't running, we should APPOINT SOMEONE ELSE (yeah, I know, we can't...) 🤯

The sun comes in over the slider. We put a cling film on it to still the light a bit. It also moves around during the season changes. We really enjoy it. Peace... ✌️☮️

Listening to #WashingtonJournal today on C-SPAN, a gentleman said that his kid could break into a voting machine in seconds and that mail in voting has been discontinued in many countries. I call BS! Peace...

Listening to #C-SPAN and the "DOGE Subcommittee", Led by "MTG" who, from this point forward, I will remember as "Alice the Goon" from the Popeye Cartoon Series. Please PLEASE stand up for @npr.org and @pbs.org. We need them, now, more than ever. Peace...

#Leavitt opens her presser with CBS/UGOV poll numbers. For me, the most important number in them is attached. If you're going to do a poll, make it real. #JFC #MeansNothing Peace...✌️

#googlemaps I spent a bit looking into " #TheGulf " mess. It's just stupid. Here's an interesting view. I think the opportune photo IS what this is all about. That oil rig in the frame, rather the the incredible natural resource the gulf actually is. Peace...

I will be spending my day at home with my 7th grade schoolteacher better half. Thinking of my Granddaughter on her 2nd birthday! (pic included for the smile factor 😀) When not chatting with the teacher, I'll have headphones on listening to Mixcloud stations. #noothermedia #resist #fafo #MLKday

My FAVORITE supply store, #menards, sent me this today. I rent, so, it doesn't help me exactly, but, I thought some of you out there might want to take advantage? I love Menards! They have always taken great care of our needs! Peace...

Bye-Bye #starbucks I wish #caribou was around, but, there are many MANY good independent shops around. I'll frequent them instead. Peace...

#c-span is on my tablet for todays hearing with #hegseth because I actually care about my country and believe that this is one of the absolute worst picks in the history of picks of cabinet members ever. #peace☮️🕊️✌️

Happy #2025 !!! Some sun here in Montgomery IL. 19 days until "The Apprentice 2025 - White House Edition".

Look. I know that many many people voted for DJT because they thought he was going to help them. But, I think, he has said repeatedly what he was going to do, and that is to serve himself. ☮️
