Mira's JournalI"m gobsmacked by this interview and the background about Pope Leo
If by chance it has been posted, I'm sorry for the duplication, I want all of us to see it though
Kudos and Thanks to Rachel Maddow
Rachel said she would be on the job and keep us informed for the first 100 days, and promptly went back to reporting 5 nights a week immediately.
In my observation, she did not miss a single night.
She was on top of our protests, and on top of our need to know.
She was tireless and brought to our attention many atrocities that were being committed against us that others had missed or chosen not to report.
I dont know how else to thank Rachel but to humbly present her with a vast and beautiful bouquet of art.
Just like her work.
I love you and am so grateful for you, Rachel Maddow.
Tale of my visit to a Grocery store today
My day started with my cousin in Vienna sending a round-robin letter to many family members, reminding them that it was my grandmothers 128th birthday and for us to remember that we all would not be here had she not lived.
I was in the grocery store later on, and as I left, pushing my cart, a maybe 35-year-old African American woman danced out the door behind me, she was one happy person, dressed to the nines, a little tipsy, and making tango dance steps as she sang Happy Birthday to me - Happy Birthday to me.
I stopped and gave her a hug and congrats, and she said she was now blessed.
As I put my stuff in the car, I remembered my grandmother. I stepped up to the people-loaded van into which she had disappeared and asked if they had the birthday girl in there with them. She called to me and affirmed it, and I told her I had spaced that it was also my grandmothers birthday. She was 128 years old today but did not make it this far and sadly died.
But, I added, thank goodness Trump and Musks social security checks were still arriving on time.
The entire van population erupted in laughter. The kind of laughter where they knew what I was talking about.
I did not ruin it and tell them she was born in Serbia and died in Vienna.
Happy Birthday, Oma.
Im the oldest of her thirteen grandchildren.
Saved it for today --- Worth seeing again
Having this already made it unnecessary to turn on my TV today
For the Home stretch: Next to the last banner went up on my fence
After the declaration of victory, the final one will appear. It has been ordered.
A ghoulish question, and not about Halloween
What would happen in America if the felon fell over and succumbed to his apparent lack of well-being in his old age?
If the exhaustion would suddenly be permanent.
We have an equally incompetent and equally fascist running mate, picked by him, not the people, and not really by the party.
We have printed and mailed ballots, and the early voting has started.
Just wondering, and asking for a friend.
