Congrats to your son! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ My English and Philosophy courses made me rethink my major, but science won out, and I became an RN. I still love researching and writing. My Anatomy Professor debated evolution in the local paper with a pastor. That was fun! ๐Ÿ˜‚

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ Some of my favorite undergrad courses were English, Womenโ€™s Lit, Philosophy, Sociology, and Psychology. I also enjoyed my Science courses (RN). Out of all of these, Philosophy ranks #1. I had an excellent instructor and overall, thoroughly enjoyed this class.

Itโ€™s been a while since Iโ€™ve been to a Target store. Iโ€™m not giving my money to any businesses that have taken away their DEI policies. I hope they feel the consequences and see their profits go down.

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

Creepy thing happened today. Let me preface this with- I deactivated & deleted my X account after the election.
I used Siri to โ€œcall Momโ€ today. The call proceeded to go through & ring. While waiting for her to pick up, the X app opened on my cell phone and asked me to sign in. Sketchy

I need to figure how to block on my parentโ€™s DirectTV stream service. I have a pair of Loop earbuds that sufficiently block noise. They work great. But would prefer to block.

Stop supporting big businesses. Shop local and/or small businesses. Give to businesses that align with your values. Link in article to online shop (make it grow). Itโ€™s NOT Amazon. Stop making the rich, richer. Time to be frugal.
Side note- update or get your passport.

Trump Trolled Over โ€˜Trueโ€™ Reason for Moving Inauguration Inside Top political players roasted the president-elect across social media for letting โ€œbad weatherโ€ break tradition on his big day.

www.thedailybeast.com/trump-trolle...

1) NO TV. Let ratings plummet
2) Donโ€™t spend $
3) No SM except BlueSky
4) Boycott artists performing at inauguration
6) DO celebrate MLK Day. Honor a great man & true leader

Heโ€™s counting on TV ratings. Let them be at a record low

Wouldnโ€™t surprise me. Texas enacts these archaic, and unconscionable laws then, expects good change to come said laws.

This weekend, babysat my Cousins- ages 2.5 & 1.5 yrs old. Made it through intact (them too). Albeit very tired (me, not them). All day Saturday, overnight and today. It was joyful (and hilarious), and Iโ€™m exhausted. Childless and old/er. Shout out & applause to all Parents who do this on the daily ๐Ÿ˜Ž
