Except for the third to the last paragraph the “Chronicle” had it right. I don’t believe these people are out of step with the vast majority of Americans.

Do Houston No Kings protesters 'hate America'? What they said. | Editorial More than 1,000 No Kings protesters showed up in Cypress, Texas. We asked them if they 'hate America,' as House Speaker Mike Johnson claims? The flag-waiving patriots gave us a resounding 'no.'

Similar happened to me in Texas. ID came for family member but mine didn’t. I assumed that a neighbor got it by mistake, put it back in outgoing mail and that triggered my removal. I caught it for a special election the governor scheduled at an odd time (another story). 3 MONTHS to get new card.

The FDA web site is not helpful. Referred to it for extended expiration dates on Covid tests and there is NO clarity on those extensions.

👍And let's hope wholesale change can occur in 2026 - 2028.

Please continue to care - for me that means staying engaged and fighting/voting for the change you want. At nearly 70 I know things aren't working for the majority of us. People not caring or feeling they don't make a difference often leads to "checking out". Stay engaged. Vote in EVERY election.

This morning’s view.

I always smile when I see his picture.

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

What pretty results!

get well soon - I hope you get answers quickly

I can often get new books within a few months of their publication date by placing holds in those I want to read. The library is the best!

Saw both but watch “Apollo 13” over and over again and I feel the suspense and tear up every time even though I know how it turned out IRL.

Our Harris County Public Library is a treasure. I have a long list of books in the queue to be read, some of which have just been published and are on order by the library. Today’s selection is “Katherine, the Wright Sister” by Tracey Emerson Wood. It’s a fictional account of the Wright family.

Learning to be comfortable in the silence is an art, and one to be developed.

Thanks for posting this - check out their "about" page for details on this innovative chef. And check out their menu for other fusion dishes. Gotta get down there (several times).

I feel seen.

The first day of retirement deserves to be what YOU want it to be . . . and if it's KFC, so be it. Congratulations!

Slice the panettone, toast it, slather it in butter and add a little jelly. But don't eat the paper.

Done

Thank you. Watching it unfold on live TV will forever remain in my memories. I appreciate your efforts.

You've had really STRONG coffee this morning!

You were a compassionate thinker even then. 😇

Jackie’s - better use of red without being overwhelming. And I live the chandelier.

With fry bread please?

Been here about a week and half my feed is skies, flowers, fungi, and birds. I've posted a blue sky (with water feature), a rose, my sorority sister's green bean casserole (cream of mushroom soup), and here is a bird. My work here is done! 😀

In case the link doesn’t work for you, a sorority sister of mine worked at the Campbell’s test kitchen back in the day and came up with green bean casserole! Happy Thanksgiving in honor of inventor Dorcas Reilly.
