Not a 90s kid, but my home growing up had a bomb shelter in the basement.

Our responsibility as parents is to raise them in a safe environment where they know that they are loved and supported no matter what. Raise good humans. Then let them free to fly on their own, knowing that there is always a place for them if needed. And we have to be strong enough to let it happen

Really fun ride. Thanks for the Church-centric chapter! Awaiting the novella anxiously.

Can it be another form of dance? I’m not coordinated enough for tap.

Gies Memorial Stadium in Champaign is idle on the 20th. Would have been nice to return to where it started. But ✊🏻.

Well, they have the time since most aren’t calling out our own.

Some people are incapable of this. But it’s incumbent upon us to ridicule such individuals.

There’s an unopened bottle of E H Taylor just waiting. And a rapid text to my boss saying I’ll be sick tomorrow. A couple of buddies are planning to join me.

The President cannot commandeer any local law enforcement.
The President does not run the Smithsonian.
The monthly BLS jobs report is required by law.
Release the Epstein files.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Be well. You aren’t alone in wanting to withdraw for a bit. Doing so (at least for me) might keep me sane. Time to read books and sip on good whiskey.

Discovered that on a recent reread.

Send the KOA after them. Oops, I guess we call them ICE in this realm…

… Hypocritical old white men, scared of anything different, have no business legislating anything regarding women’s healthcare or how another being loves another. Especially when quite a few are sick and twisted privately, while wrapped in false “Christian” rhetoric. I could go on, but not now.

Need to rant on a smoky sky Friday -
Pedophiles are bad. Sycophants who glorify those individuals are worse. What’s happening in Gaza is horrific, in no way does this mean that what evils Hamas did on that October day should be forgotten, both have no justification. 1/2

If you’re in the Midwest today, be careful if you must be outside for any length of time. It’s a real “bag sticker” out there.
Be well. Stay safe.

Instead of “shitshow”, use “eclectic”.

Out with mine right now. He’s 23 and finding excellent local places to visit and to dine at. It gets better.
