Today is the day to do 2 things: #1 Verify that your voter registration status is active. #2 Make your voting plan. Where do you vote? What hours are the polls open? Is early voting available? Make sure you are ready to exercise your right to choose our next leaders!
I’ve been feeling down lately. Not the clinically depressed kind of down. I’m not feeling agoraphobic. I’m not feeling paranoid. I’m not feeling scared to get out of bed. I’ve been there, done that, more than once. So I know what that feels like and I know it’s not that. No, instead I’m just feeling concerned/ worried about the future… Read more »
There are a lot of things I don’t know. I don’t know why anyone still supports Donald Trump in 2024 I don’t know exactly how airplanes work (don’t bother trying to explain it to me. Several engineers have with no success). I don’t know the names of the leader of 95% of the world’s countries. I could go on, but… Read more »
Full disclosure- Saturday morning I wrote a scathing post about the outrage over the drag queen performance at the Olympic opening ceremonies. But then by Saturday night it came out that the supposed mockery of Da Vinci’s painting of the Last Supper was completely misplaced because the scene they were portraying was actually an ancient Greece bacchanal. Which makes WAY… Read more »
There has been a weird surge of “Trad Wife” content on social media. “Trad” of course is short for “traditional”. These accounts/ channels show women as merry housewives tending to several photogenic children, baking goodies from scratch, often tending to chickens and a huge garden, and generally cosplaying as June Cleaver. Before we go any further, I have nothing against… Read more »
This is a day I “celebrate” without even trying. It’s International Panic day. Yes- International. It’s not enough for folks here in the US to panic. We are panicking all over the globe. And why not? Climate change, wars, economic threats, human rights violations- the list goes on. It’s enough to make you wonder why some people AREN’T panicking! And… Read more »
I’m going to say something that is probably going to piss off some people. I don’t see how it is possible to continue to support Donald Trump and call yourself a Christian at the same time. There is literally nothing even vaguely Christian about this man. He has cheated on all 3 of his wives. He has admitted to walking… Read more »
Unless you’ve been living under a rock you’d heard all the hubbub about Kansas City Chief’s kicker Harrison Butker’s commencement speech at the Benedictine College in Atchinson Kansas. The usual suspects are complaining that he is being criticized for “speaking out about being a Christian”. Which is, of course, complete and utter crap. If Butker had given a speech about… Read more »
I’m sure you’ve seen this on social media. It’s usually in giant font and it reads “I saw something online that I was offended by and I just scrolled by” followed by something snarky. There are two possible explanations why someone who share this, and neither are very good. The first is that this person shares things that really are… Read more »
A couple weeks ago I did something I hadn’t done in a long time- I went to my local library. I got myself a library card and checked out a couple books right away. I’ve already returned those and got 3 more! It was important to me to get back to this now for a couple reasons. #1 Libraries are… Read more »
