Atm i'm in the process of researching, & deeply considering, a short-list of potential names i could live with, for my daughter's infants, my... grandkids... to call me when i enter their lives in ~month. 😱

This article is not relevant / helpful for my current issue, but came up as "by-catch" during my searches. It's a sweet read, & illustrates powerful love + empathy.

    I once joked that there is a undocumented variant of #Covid that simply makes people too stupid to protect themselves to ensure its spread.

    Now, I'm not so sure. There must be SOME explanation as to why there are suddenly SO many Nuckin' Futz #morons out there who are too stupid to walk in the rain w/o drowning. #JFC 🤦‍♂️

    Donald Trump is openly and blatantly encouraging Russia to invade NATO allies. Believe your ears, people. This would be World War III. This will happen if Trump is elected.

    Why hasn't released this stunning "fully exonerating" evidence before now? 🤨

    And , these idiots simply don't get that EVEN IF BY SOME MIRACLE they proved "the election were stolen", IT DOESN'T DECRIMINALIZE TRYING TO "STEAL BACK" THE ELECTION! 🤦‍♂️

    OJ went to prison for trying to "steal back" property he believed was stolen from him by resorting to ARMED B&E!

    Not only was Mr Moti devastated by seeing such a horrific image, but this was how he found out that his father had been killed.

    "I kind of froze at that moment. It was really shocking for me," he says."

    There is something SERIOUSLY WRONG with this country where we must write children's books on how to stay safe during a school shooting, yet the Party in control votes AGAINST raising the minimum age to buy an assault weapon... BUT instead bans teaching EQUALITY in colleges and "" in the name of "protecting the children." 🤦‍♂️ 😒 https://www.msnbc.com/alex-wagner-tonight/watch/as-legislative-session-ends-texas-ignores-gun-violence-crisis-for-culture-war-issues-176245829951
