My mind is blank. My disappointment is incalculable. My grandson asks me: Kamala is unlikeable. Why did not I see that? She will never win.
I am definitely out of touch. Liars, pimps, and crooks - they are the likeable ones.
I am going to have to stay out of touch.

@MakerWerks I feel your pain. I have donated, voted and am now hiding from all donation requests. I especially do not like to respond to anything telling me the sky is falling, like they just found that out.
Waiting it out. I do not believe there are ANY undecideds at this stage of play.

@redenigma Well, ain't that just the pips!
Dumber and Dumber?
Fools live everywhere.

I went on a great journey tonight: started with watching a person by the initials DJT calling a halt to his Townhall questions, asking staff to play "his" music. Rufus Wainwright's version of Hallelujah comes on. WTF. Segued to MSNBC interview with Rufus, son of Loudon. Ended up searching for my favorite cover of this magnificent song and ended up at the 2010 Olympics in Canada with KD Lang. Now listening to ALL her versions of this song.
I call that a successful road trip.
Good night, all!

@mrk This is has haunted me since Ronald Reagan arrived on the scene as Gov of CA. All around me, folks who thought he was so brilliant and inspiring.
It has been down hill since. At this point, only the willing blind, deaf and dumb could like any of these bad actors in Congress. It is beyond my comprehension.

@karashta Thanks for this lovely send off to my day. Heavenly. And, someone new to add to my list of favorites.

Not any more!

Just a quiet reminder: After 3 years of vigilance against COVID-19, I was caught flat-footed about 10 days ago while visiting a friend undergoing cancer treatment. I thought what could be safer than two old friends who never go anywhere getting together? Bah! We are both on the other side of the illness now. And, thank science - fully vaccinated and antiviral drugs to the rescue.

I finally did it! Elon told me I had to pay $8 a month to keep my Twit account with 2FA. He can take that idea and shove it. I stopped going there some time ago, but that was really the very last straw. I have pay him to keep my account safe???!!!

A breath of fresh air,is Mary Oliver!
My spring celebrations are tempered by the loss of my dearest sister on March 21 2019. But "Spring" holds me upright. Thank you so much for reminding me.

@Alfred Can I use Ivory for Counter.Social on my iPad? If so, how do I add my account?

@Museek
I love your photos of the bay. Love love love Santa Cruz and Monterey Bay. And, mightily miss them. Your photos really help.

Never Forget!

For an astounding retrospective of censorship, racism, bigotry, autocratic and flat out hate, look no further than our own dear USA as we build up to enter WW1. I am reading American Midnight by Adam Hochschild and I cannot sleep at night. This is for everyone who is amused by our current crop of authoritarians on the rise. Yes, it DOES happen here. Past is prologue?

Tyre Nichols’ photographs are soulful, tranquil and beautiful.

Such a loss to us all. 💔

@duglop
I think everyone in USA needs to scan their households for "classified" documents. I am sure we are all guilty of hiding something! No, not hiding, something comes thru the door, we lay it down and forget about it. That is yesterday's news. Then a knock on the door and investigators find I have been hoarding state secrets. How does this happen!?

@WeThePeople
Thank you for sharing this video. What an amazing young woman. I have subscribed to her channel and look forward to more of her insightful content. We really do need to understand each other better.

That instant threading is so cool!
