Protestors at the intersection of Poplar and Highland in Memphis, Tennessee. There are multiple Ukrainian flags being waved. Visible signs include "Be Calm Stay Strong," "Save Democracy," there was one with a funny joke about Trump, Elon, and Vance walking into the White House but it didn't come out in the photo! You can also see several volunteers (neon safety vests), these events are well-crewed

My 80 year old, Vietnam veteran friend with his cardboard sign, standing in cold rain in Boston on Saturday. Resist!

Not playing then. Thanks for the heads up. I refuse to have anything to do with it.

Being a Boomer who considers herself a purist when it comes to The Beatles, I frequently do not like covers of their songs. This, however, is way better than the original, IMHO. I had never seen it.

I love using wax paper for wrapping my lunch! I feel so low tech!

My experience exactly! My life has gotten so insane (in a good but too busy way) and my reading fell off. Now with audio books I’m “reading” voraciously again. I had to get over my ingrained ableism as well. Cheers to evolving!

Today I removed the last vestige of racist, homophobic, transphobic, misogynistic ignorance from my social media. My first cousin, with whom I had already had a major falling out about 25 years ago over racism, got the boot. I will not miss his sniveling boot-licking or his hatred. Bye, D.
