This Leonard Cohen quote from “Anthem” reminds me that despite the onslaught these last months, despite moments of real anguish, my faith in humanity remains.

That's how the light gets in.”

Home Sweet Home

People can be so kind! Helped a client close on new home he got for 20-year immigrant employee who couldn’t qualify, but will eventually own through a generous agreement. Husband, wife, two kids are thrilled and were active in this family affair. Brought me to tears! There’s NO place like home.

Totally agree. And HCR was just talking about this. Hit ‘em where it hurts. $$$

Not having that issue on my end.

He is one of a few who make me proud to be a Texan. Team Talarico! 🇺🇸🇨🇱

This world can be so astonishingly beautiful!

This was an excellent discussion. Hard not to get even more distressed but of course information is power. Thank you both!

Look at his hands on his daughter. This is just so f’ed up. But we all know that many of his crew will just explain it away. He was an FBI informant after all, so there must be a logical explanation here.

No spin too spurious for the space cadets at FOX “News”.

Medicare won’t pay for a thyroid med I’ve been on since the ‘80’s, and they won’t cover my GLP-1 either, which I pay for out of pocket. I won’t be able to do that once I’m fully retired.

Enjoying some of the good stuff in this life…

The irony…which is TOTALLY lost on them.

Yours is a rhetorical question, right?!

From Timothy Snyder’s “On Tyranny”…which is running amok in my “great state of Texas”. FFS! Wake up, America! #NoKings

I love it when you don’t hold back in the slightest on the snark and incredulity. Of course, that’s the overarching vibe these days…

YouTube video by Heather Cox Richardson A Conversation With California Governor Gavin Newsom

Grateful for the brilliance of Heather Cox Richardson. I don’t always see eye to eye with her guest Gov. Newsom, but I’m ALL for him punching back against efforts to rig the vote and destroy our Constitution.

Cowboy up! 🤠 #HCR
