Remembering the Cap Arcona: Nazi ship sunk with concentration camp prisoners on board The Cap Arcona, a Nazi ship, was attacked by British Royal Air Force planes near the end of World War II. Thousands of prisoners died as the ship sank in the horrific and little-known disaster.

Never knew about the #CapArcona until tonight’s @60minutes.bsky.social segment. Wow! 💔❤️‍🩹 www.cbsnews.com/video/cap-ar...

I can’t lie, watching Rachel NOT get her way is kind of my favorite thing ever. And hear me out, I’ve never been a BB super fan, but have watched more the past few seasons. In general, I’m not a villain fan, though I know they make for better TV *shrug* #BigBrother #BB27

Small nit to pick: please don’t encourage people to add you on LinkedIn your settings restrict others from adding you 🙃 and since I’m not a pro member, I also can’t message you instead {just seeking to be heard, not helped or hugged}

The federal cuts taking place are a betrayal of rural America. Cuts to Medicaid will hammer rural economies, cut health-care jobs and strip families of coverage. Cuts to the US Dept. of Education will hurt rural public schools, leaving kids behind.

America deserves better.

After whirlwind travel to and through Costa Rica for ten days, I had two days to finish packing and purging for my move! Thankful to have family who drove out to help, and the financial ability to hire help for the heavy lifting. And just like that — I am back in my old Kentucky home!
