If you have Disney+, I recommend "Into the Unknown: Making Frozen II."

It's a 6-part docuseries about the last year of making the movie.

Whether you like the Frozen movies or not, it's a fascinating look into what it takes to make an animated film. It's so much more complex than I ever imagined.

Republicans vigorously defended Kyle Rittenhouse when he murdered two people with an AR15, but they wanted Hunter Biden to go to jail over lying on a form.

The fact that Republicans will just switch positions whenever it benefits them is why I think Biden's pardon was justified.

~I was in JROTC for four years. I was BN S-1 and selected as BDE S-2.
~I've earned medals.
~I've fired an M-16 & an M-60 at Camp Pendleton.
~My father was a Master Chief in the Navy.
~I've walked on an aircraft carrier & a submarine.

It seems like that makes me qualified to be Sec of Defense.

The eyes of a psychopath and the eyes of the person the orange twatwaffle wants to make the head of the FBI.

I think it's hard to tell the difference.

One of my favorite LGBTQ+ publishers. The quality is outstanding.

And these are GONZO prices!

Other people: "Wicked is so good! But the book is always better than the movie. I need to read the book now."

Me: "It's a fabulous book! But...Gird your loins. It is very, very, VERY different. And do **NOT** let your children read this book!!!!"

I barely make eye contact with people in public restrooms.

So I sure as hell don't want to look at their genitals.

Just go in, do your business, WASH YOUR HANDS, and get out.

Mind ya own bizness!

REVIEW: “Letters Never Sent” by Sandra Moran I have mentioned before that one of my favorite things about attending the annual Golden Crown Literary Society Conference is meeting and discovering new authors. The conference this year was held …

I read and reviewed this book 11 years ago. But it has stayed with me.

Sandra Moran became a good friend. When cancer took her away from us in Nov 2015, our community lost an amazing woman. I lost a fantastic friend.

Her books are available on that big website.

Sometimes, I need to turn my thoughts away from the current state of the world—okay, the current state of U.S. politics.

So, I turn my thoughts to Cyd Charisse and Gene Kelly. But mostly Cyd Charisse.

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.
