Sold our boat last year— bought a cabin on an island in British Columbia. Now husband and I are converting a 2016 Kenworth ambulance into an RV to continue wandering.

When I started writing my first novel, I chose the tropical blue water setting because those are the kind of books I love to read. This month I joined up with a group of other writers of Tropical thrillers to cross promote our books. Check it out here: books.bookfunnel.com/bftuakmnhw9a...

We have a govt that’s engaged in human trafficking, that’s openly allowing a gulf petrostate to bribe its leadership, that’s reshaping the refugee program in overtly racist terms, that’s almost ended American foreign aid entirely, that’s doing its level best to crash the economy from the rose garden

Trump’s crackdown on immigration has already affected thousands of migrants, but one story has grabbed particular attention. Canadian actress and entrepreneur Jasmine Mooney was recently detained by ICE for 12 days while attempting to renew her work visa. PBS spoke with her about her experience.

Somewhat ironic that the least qualified, most unfit and incompetent Sec of Defense in American history is the one who abolished DEI.

Holy shit. In a shocking unearthed video, Marco Rubio completely destroys Donald Trump for being a full of shit bully.

Marco was hoping people would forget this…so don’t repost right now this very second!

3rd day in a row on the golf course while Musk runs the country. He didn’t even know yesterday that the head of the Social Security Admin resigned, and didn’t know SpaceX employees were working at the FAA/DOD, and claimed Medicaid wasn’t being cut when it’s being cut massively.

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

But at least he’s deporting the criminals, right? Wait, the Trump Administration ended the policy exempting locations—such as schools, hospitals, and churches—from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations? Is that where they think the criminals hang out??

But he did campaign as the guy who wouldn’t get us into foreign wars, right? So what’s this talk about taking over Panama, Greenland, Canada and sending US troops to Gaza? Good thing the USA is out of the regime -change business.

Wait a minute, didn’t he say he was going to end the war in Ukraine on day one?

And why is the price of gas 20 cents higher on average than a month ago?

And have you seen the price of eggs?

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections.

Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

I have a dream that someday all Americans will look at the current president of this great country and judge the man not by the color of his skin, but by the content of his character.

1/ I am trying to understand what has happened in America, watching as the president elect fills his cabinet with white men, a frightening percentage of whom have a history of abusing women, and a thought occurred to me. Much has been written recently about the decline of men in modern society.

Canada's top military commander Jennie Carignan calls out the GOP for questioning women in combat: After 39 years as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations, I can’t believe that in 2024, we still have to justify women's contribution to defense and service in their country...

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to NBC on women in the military:

"They do impact readiness. They make us better. They make us stronger. And again, what I've seen from our women is quite incredible. This is not hyperbole. This is fact ... As the years have gone by, our women get better and stronger."

"Bluesky is awesome now, for how long?" I mean, look, all things change and end, we will all die, earth will be uninhabitable in a billion years, then the sun will expand and destroy the planet, and the universe will die a slow death of proton decay. But BEFORE THAT, let's make this place fun, okay?

Coneheads! Our new babies had their spay and neuter surgeries yesterday and spent the night at the vet’s. They are happy to be home, but not at all happy with their cones.
