"How am I supposed to explain this to my children?!"
  • I am a 66 year old American. I have no guns. The only time I have seen or operated one was when I was in the Navy in the early 1980s. I have seen the damage that guns can do several times in the 30 years I have been working as a child protective service caseworker/supervisor.

  • Gaza war protesters shut down Golden Gate Bridge, block traffic in other cities
  • Voting third party gives more power for the former president to win. I am not taking that chance. I think we have a better chance at working with the current administration to intervene positively after the election. If the orange menace gets in he will likely take the Israel/Palestine war to new levels.

  • The one and only downside to wearing crocs
  • I love my crocs and wear them during the warm months of the year.

    They are also not good in the rain.

    I wear socks with them and give them a good soapy wash frequently. Never had any smell issues.

    They are great for traveling. They pack well and are easy going through security. Last year in Aruba I was pulled aside for secondary screening and they took my crocs to dust for explosives. I thought that was odd. I would never think of putting explosives in a pair of holey shoes lol.

  • Utah Rep. Celeste Maloy endorses Trump’s plan for mass detention and deportation of migrants
  • I recently watched the following program on PBS: Nazi Town, USA which described the rise of fascism in America at the same time as the Nazis in Germany. It was an eye opening experience and one that has a hauntingly similar essence to our current situation in the USA.

  • What do you miss from the old internet?
  • Yes! My ex and I used to build all kinds of computers back then. Of course they used to blow up rather quickly. It was a slog trying to figure out where I left off once I got up and running again. Shopping - I bought all kinds of stuff on the internet back then lol. Enough said.
