All of the eye rolls. Visiting family member in assisted living. Hubby and I are wearing masks of course. She informs us she attended a memorial for those who had died in the past year. A big increase she tells us. I mention covid. I mention the AARP article I sent her which was surprisingly informative on the topic. She still cannot connect the dots. Oh no, it wasn't because of covid all those "many more than usual" people who died. #Covid

"A snake was found on a plane before it took off from the West Australian town of Broome on Thursday morning.
In bizarre scenes, Disney TV personality Andre Rerekura was the passenger who took the non-venomous snake off the aircraft before it embarked for Perth."

Let me preface this by saying Pete Hegseth, the Mango Mussolini’s completely unqualified choice for Secretary of Defense, is a true pile of shit. I’m looking forward to the documentary Jessica Yahn is working on. If you have a few minutes, it’s worth a listen.

Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
