#vangogh #christmas
On this date in 1888 Vincent Van Gogh chopped off his ear in apparent frustration at not having completed his Christmas shopping. Don’t let the pressure get to you. Have a Merry Christmas and happy new year.

#humanrights #unitednations
On this day in 1948 the United Nations proclaimed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It is one of the most translated documents ever, available in over 500 languages. Time for America to read it and practice it with our citizens.

#washington #trump
On this day in 1884 the Washington Monument was completed. This monument is one of the many things that make Washington DC an amazing visit for history lessons of America. Do you think Donald Trump is going to put his name on the Washington Monument? He puts it everywhere else.

I just watched the movie Nuremberg. A powerful movie that everyone should see. It says a lot about what is happening in America today. We need to be aware of what the final goals are of this administration.

On this date, 1991 the citizens of Ukraine voted for independence from the Soviet Union. We must continue to support their independence as Russia tries to steal more of their land and citizens for itself.

On this day in 1955, Rosa Parks, a Black seamstress in Montgomery Alabama was arrested for refusing to give up her seat to a white man on a bus. This was swallowed by a bus boycott beginning the civil rights movement. A great example for doing the right thing.

#pong #videogames
This day at 1972 a major breakthrough and video games occurred. PONG was created. That exciting game with the little round ball making a little noise as it bounced back-and-forth. How many exciting hours playing that game did you spend?

So I see Donald Trump as pardoned to turkeys prior to Thanksgiving day. They must’ve been convicted of some pretty major crimes to be able to join the 1600 people that were pardoned for breaking into the capital. Not to mention the wealthy individuals that contributed money to Donald

Today is national good grief day. It was established years ago as a way to honor Charles Schultz creator of the peanuts characters. Unfortunately with our current government situation, good grief day is not a once a year experience. It occurs daily.

#kindness
Today is World Kindness Day promoting kindness around the world. It started in 1998. On honor of this day I will refrain from saying anything negative about Donald Trump. KIDDING! New emails. An upcoming vote on releasing the Epstein files. It is too much to ignore.
