My Cali cousin married a guy originally from that area. And when his dad gave the toast I turned to my mom and said ‘I didn’t know Alan’s family was foreign.’ 😂

*And I know that Ernst, Grassley, Feenstra & Reynolds are all MAGAtwats and unlikely to do anything. But they are the representatives I got, not the representatives I voted for, so all I can do is annoy the shit out of them.

😂 Honestly, no. 😂 But I have been in a rush & scared the bejeesus out of one trying to open our trash bag (by coming in hot on my bike). Luckily, that just freaked the crow out & it has never returned with its friends for revenge. Or maybe eating our veggies is it’s revenge?

We live in the Tokyo & have a rooftop garden. My husband was complaining about crows eating our lettuces. And I was like in the Japan gardening group people are trying to deter deer, boars & monkeys. I rather deal with just crows than all that. 😂 Imagine adding bears to the mix. 😳
