A poem that I was inspired to pen this morning.
Love is not a script written on a postcard – love – is not etched in sugared kisses nor candied dreams.

In an exchange with an acquaintance yesterday morning, they inquired, "Is the Ukraine situation really a war?

My thought for today: I woke up in a cold sweat thinking about this; We live in a world where a narcissist, a misogynist, a thief, a foreign asset, and a traitor can run for public office. Isn't the post-truth era wonderful? !💩

Grief and loss reverberate like an exquisite symphony in the grand concert hall of existence, deafening yet unheard. It is a profound paradox, an echo, a silent scream, an overwhelming sadness that touches every soul yet is uniquely experienced by each.

Embrace the unconventional: master the art of surprise, leverage terrain, and exploit technological gaps. Never underestimate the power of adaptation Russia: In warfare, as in life, sometimes the smaller snake bites hardest. 🇺🇦

A treat for Rudy and Daisy: Steak & Eggs with fresh garden Oregano and a few dried Sprats thrown in for good measure. We are trying to build Rudy up; he lost some weight due to a recurring infection: Beef and egg are good for protein, fish for the Omega 3 fatty acids, and Oregano is a natural antibacterial/antimicrobial; now voila – the breakfast of champions.

Okay! Not only does crazy Daisy love Oranges: but I have come to learn she also loves fresh Jalapenos. Spicy dog; it suits her personality.

Not renewing the grain deal further proves that is not just at war with but the world. Unfortunately, the disinformed and useful idiots will blame Ukraine!

We live in a world of dynamic, constantly shifting narratives due to the emerging power struggle within global geopolitics. We are both the targets and the weapons – both passive and active – of unconventional warfare tactics: the victims and the useful idiots. Caveat Emptor!

@PBesso It's because they're too young to remember that Plymouth, had a beautiful slant six that was a very robust engine. But seriously? I like the old series wild, wild west. I have it on disc. As I watch it I'm struck immediately by the sophistication of the chosen dialogues. We have been dumbed down in this country, it's an inescapable conclusion when a show for kids points that fact out clearly.

Can we protect ourselves from manipulation if we don't understand basic ? "Knowledgeable audience may be unfamiliar with the word valiant." What? Dumbing down language puts us at risk of manipulation. Nuance and context are crucial in understanding the content we consume.

Even in the animal kingdom, the language of and acceptance is universal. Watch as this playful puppy, seeking warmth and companionship, is embraced by an unexpected friend - a caring chicken. Their adorable interaction reminds us that is indeed a beautiful thing.

Frankly, I no longer care if MAGATS are upset.They will benefit from PRESIDENT BIDEN's programs but still complain.There is no use talking with
PRO Russian,PRO Sedition,PRO Criminal ,PRO Misinformation,PRO XENPHOBIC magats. They will always support don the con down the drain.

Behind every meme, there is a story. Some are innocent; others a tool for conflict. We delve into the darker side of viral humour and how memes are manipulated for memetic warfare. The battlefield is closer than one may think.

I'm ! Not interested means I'm NOT INTERESTED! I despise door-to-door canvassers and who cannot take no for an answer. Is it the N or the O with which they have a particular issue? Can I ask you why — NO! Just go away!

Cost of living be damned: Ukraine should not cede territory to Russia! Ukraine is a sovereign state! History is a stark reality of Russia's brutality against , and Putin has already proved his cruelty and brutality. ! 🇺🇦
