Happy Friday! I ran across an old bag of letters today--the antediluvian snail mail kind--and it was like finding treasure. What's the best letter you ever received? #BeforeTheInternet

A Customer Service win: I get some of my pets' food at #Chewy. I called them today, a SUNDAY, to ask a question. My call was answered on the first ring BY A PERSON and my problem was solved in about 30 seconds. God, it was so refreshing. And so rare.

#Democrats, PLEASE make the most of the momentum that the wonderful American people have given you. Yes, get rid of #KristiNoem and #StevenMiller, but keep going. Fight Fascism and Chaos and #ImpeachTrump.

Oh, why can't extraterrestrials just fly down and take him away? Surely they must long to study grotesque and unnatural beings? #HelpHumanity #GoodRiddance

Rudyard Kipling and I were both born on December 30--he in 1865, I in 1964. 100 years between our birthdays--yet his words have always resonated with me. A pertinent quote from "The Light That Failed:"
โ€œWe're all islands shouting lies to each other across seas of misunderstanding." #wisewords

More #caturday relaxation advice, this time from Peach: try sitting on warm laundry and see if it helps you ease into your nap. ๐Ÿ˜†

Blech. More plaudits for the #InsecureTyrant whose need for love is an ever-widening #blackhole.

The 'leader" of this country has used a beloved icon's tragic and violent death to draw attention to himself by mocking that man, #RobReiner. There is no depth too low for this pathetic parasite of democracy. He is unfit to govern. #25thAmendment

In this fragile time, we all want to be treated gently. Even music can sound harsh to me when I'm stressed out. But I've found the solution! A playlist called "Holiday Bedtime." Every Christmas song is an instrumental lullaby with little gentle bells. :) #Soothing #UnstressedChristmas

He fears and despises women. He calls them โ€œstupidโ€œ and โ€œpiggyโ€ and โ€œnastyโ€ because thatโ€™s the best comeback a limited intelligence can summon. And they have to say, โ€œThank you, Mr. President. โ€œ

A third of Americans now revere what the Constitution tells them to mistrust and despise. The pResident no longer pretends to be anything but what he is: openly racist, misogynistic, xenophobic, violent, aggrieved, and unrepentant. The mask is off, and STILL some see perfection. #FaceReality

Remember the old folk tales about the devil and people who sold their souls? The devil always managed to trick them and make their "reward" a misery because, well, he was the devil. That's my worry about #TheEpsteinList. That somehow those grifter devils will manage to pull the rug out once again.
