Sympathies.

Two girls patting a black and white dog.

My GP said not to touch the animals in Vietnam. My girls did not accept that advice.

I don’t know what that is.

Yikes!

Absolutely not.

Just to get out of the house?

We are having a great time. What’s in Westmeadows?

Krusti Gnome made me giggle.

Not only are they cheap, they are delicious and strong!

I still can’t quite believe I’m travelling in Vietnam with my adult daughters, who have organised everything! Cocktails at night, massages during the day and breathtaking scenery. Oh, and the food!

Pervert Politics: Trumpism’s Body Obsessions How Republicans went from the party of prudes to the party of perversion.

From Trump to Noem to Hegseth and beyond, we are being governed by a party of perverts who are set on making their own psychosexual derangements into policy

Indeed.

Maybe they’re going to lure him there and then arrest, try, convict and imprison him.

This just breaks my heart.

Get Palantir out of *everything*. It is a cancer, metastasizing across businesses and governments across the planet.

Same. I’m the parent of a blind man and have spoken to a number of blind and vision-impaired people who LOVE these glasses. Creeps are gonna creep, regardless of eyewear.

Absolutely agree. I have a blind adult son and know a number of blind people who say these glasses are life-changing. I’m really having difficulty with this ‘perv’ discourse. Again, why do those with disabilities have to miss out because others are assholes?

Decades ago, MAD Magazine foretold the horror of food production consolidation and I’ve never forgotten it.

I grated my finger right onto one of those old school metal graters. I pulled my hand away and the grater was stuck on there. Scar forever more.

Developer quietly guts ‘affordable’ housing promise in northern suburbs An “ethical” property developer favoured by the state government is seeking to slash affordable housing quotas after winning controversial height concessions.

Dog, I despise property developers. How can they get away with this? www.theage.com.au/politics/vic...

Will you be able to sleep?

Steep stone steps leading up a mountain to an ancient pagoda.

The little shits, I mean daughters, made me trudge up these steep steps to see the Hang Mua Big Pagoda.

And those who came totally messed up. I remember driving friends reporting for duty.

That’s a danger noodle.

I had friends in the US who couldn’t have children because of his exposure to Agent Orange, way too many friends and acquaintances who never recovered from the trauma.

Yes indeed, and the pate in banh mi.

Photos of beautiful French art deco buildings in Hanoi

In Hanoi, you can still see French influence, beautiful art deco buildings and such.

Right? We’re leaving Hanoi as we speak, but not without passing Ho Chi Minh’s mausoleum, heading to Ninh Binh where I might calm down. But then we’re going to Hoi An, right near Da Nang, which is where US troops first landed! I’m finding it hard not to think about it.
