I believe in bodily autonomy, equity, and laws that advance and protect both.
Mostly retired. Mostly living the dream. Beware. Known to swear. I ignore DMs.

Uh-oh. Devout Christians on my FB page are PISSED that Trump is selling bibles. This is their straw. It will be fascinating to watch if its the straw that brings his run down.

Has QAnon crumbled or has the world simply lost interest?

I did not realize Robert Kennedy, Jr.’s Super Bowl ad was a replay of an ad run by John F. Kennedy. I wondered about its retro feel and who it might appeal to. It seemed to me to be an incredible waste of campaign dollars.

Now that I know, I will say, “Robert Kennedy, Jr., you are no John F. Kennedy.” I can’t believe he would try to make the comparison.

@thepoliticalcat How are you doing in the storm? Is everything holding fast?

I’m fairly certain I am now old enough to offer this advice: learn to trust yourself and how you will react to crisis rather than worrying about it happening. The first creates calm and self assurance. The second creates anxiety and fear.

It is perfectly okay to say, “I know absolutely nothing about that” and then taking time to learn about it before opining.

@nfl I’m finding it very hard to believe he didn’t report. You know they practiced this play all week. I have seen enough of this nonsense this year to say the fix has got to be in. SMH.

Would someone please explain to me why football players can’t squirt their own water bottles? @nfl

I used to believe if I properly prepared for all eventualities, I would control the outcome. Now I understand I must prepare myself to have the capacity to react and adapt in ways that are best for me no matter what the outcome.

This feels horrible. Yet wonderful all at the same time. I worked with a chatbot to solve what I believe was a rather nuanced software problem. It understood everything and had the situation resolved within minutes.

There’s a huge difference between saying you have no right to force your faith on others and your faith isn’t welcome at all. Important note: asking people to treat others kindly and with respect is not forcing one’s faith or politics or beliefs on anyone. It’s working to enforce the social contract.

Interesting. According to the NYT, when Biden does it, it’s dementia. When Trump does it, they’re “verbal slips.”

The United States Postal Service has texted me to let me know they have a package for me but they can’t find my correct address. Given past performance, that sounds about right.

It doesn’t matter which side you’re on, if you make sweeping generalizations about a group of people you will be wrong about the individuals in that group at least some of the time and sometimes most of the time.

If you’re working to reduce or eliminate that group’s authority over you and yours, understanding this fact seems important.

I was following someone and they disappeared for awhile. They are back now. When I checked for new posts, I discovered I was no longer following them.

I’m looking for info and advice: 1. Did they set something to take me off their follow list? (If that is possible, I will not refollow them). 2. If they “parked” their account for awhile, would that have reset me to not following? 3. Do these things sometimes just happen?

I would enjoy continuing to follow them, but I don’t want to be rude.
