As we prepare for SNAP benefits to not go out in Nov, I keep thinking about the grocery store food riots during the Great Depression. There was a vivid chapter depicting it in “Four Winds” by Kristin Hannah.

Watching the Tri-City Water Follies hydroplane races and I about fell outta my chair when the skydiver parachuted down with an upside down flag. This is in very red WA state, y’all. 😱 You cannot convince me that wasn’t intentional!

I easily found a KN95 with a flat front (like an N95) that is comfortable (with ear loops), breathable and doesn’t ruin my makeup. And I bought foam pads to put on it. If you want to actually wear a mask, I would recommend that. 🤷♀️
(Pic note: eyeglasses are new, so didn’t wear here)

Since “Christians” in the US apparently need reminders of what is actually in the Bible. Pay particularly close attention to 1, 4, and 8. Then ask yourself how they fit in the new budget bill and what YOU are doing to the poor, hungry and persecuted.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER.

Went to the WW2 Museum in NOLA and came upon this exhibit and a son talking to his father. Overheard him say this:
“We are already banning books in this country. At what point do we start connecting the dots?”
I had a feeling his father hadn’t thought of this, as he stood in stunned silence.

You’ve already got some great tips for Iceland. Now onto the travel pillow! TRTL…NO! I have 2 that I would choose from: one that straps to the headrest and has an eye mask that basically straps you to the seat. Next goes around your neck, but is flatter in the back. A couple examples for you!

At the same time they post this fucking bullshit. The NCI has been taken over by fascists. This will set cancer research back DECADES.

Very proud of my hometown showing up at the @indivisible.org Tri-Cities protest today. This red pocket of SE Washington had a good turnout and lots of honks in support!

Saw this on social earlier and I have to say that I’m so excited that Rick Steves was out there cheering on democracy. That man is such a gem. 🥰 #travelsky

I was playing with my cousin’s baby the day I went to go adopt my pup. He was fascinated with the Sophie the Giraffe toy. When I went to adopt, they asked me a name and that’s what popped up in my head. I didn’t realize until my aunt was like, oh Sophie the giraffe! Oh, that’s why it came to mind…
