@DemocracySpot low rumbling thunder rolled across the sky. The sound was so delicate and feint as if the storm itself was unsure.
Hot air picked up as the summer winds blew across the parking lot. He could smell rain on the wind as the warmed breeze tousled his long slightly curly locks. Running his hand through his hair nervously to settle it down from the winds, he stopped his hurried steps to his car to glance at the rolling city beneath the parking lot on the hill. He could see the shadows of the clouds as they arched across the sky to cover the world around him as the storm moved.
Deep in her heart, the thunder rolls... played on the radio softly as the car came alive. Turning the song up to hear it better, he shifted the car into drive and pulled out into the lane .

Good morning everyone, or good afternoon/evening/mysterious fourth option. I hope you are well?
The dessert treat that left me with breakfast pudding yesterday was a hit, I ended up with very little cleaning which was nice. I haven't seen my Zara cat yet this morning, so I presume she is still sleeping downstairs.
I took her to the vet a few days ago (well visit/shots) and she did amazing. Stressed kitty but she was very mature about the situation and only complained slightly.
My kitty came roaming upstairs looking as if she had partied too late in the evening. I need to have her groomed.
It's hilarious how animated cats are. She has good mornings and bad mornings, days when she clearly struggles to let go of the sleep that claims her.
She is sitting at her water bowl, yawning and looking at me periodically as she laps from the dispenser. She wants to sit in the window and I have not raised the blinds yet and I am sure she is annoyed with me. Her day doesn't begin until the robins and the squirrels have all been stared at.

I feel this as well. People demand we believe them when they prove themselves to us, and I am not one to argue with them about that.
I have had to reassess and reduce a great many people over the last few years as the intolerance, apathy, and questionable motivations rear their ugly heads. Decades long acquaintances are calling for "crazy Dems" to either do what they want, "or else". A few I have asked what they think the "or else" looks like in two years, and they get quiet.
They aren't stupid people, they aren't uneducated people, so I must conclude they are simply not concerned.
Anyone not concerned about the GOP in America is not someone to be trusted or taken seriously. They are clearly either lying to you, or to themselves.
At the moment we still have some illusion of choice. We decide between a few selections and hope for the best.
The GOP is actively looking to pivot the country. We need to stop them or they will win and the illusions of choice disappear.

“No captain”
“Why not?”
“This is a pandimensional quantum computing engine. Part of it exists solely in subspace. It continually duplicates itself while checking to make sure every bit of data is in parity within a 6th dimensional matrix. The system doesn’t need backups because it is unhackable.”
“Pray tell, what happened 15 minutes ago?”

“We got hacked”

Is Fallout ASMR a thing? Because I know a lot about that show/series now and I could make it a thing. :ablobcateyesflip: @LikeItOrLumpIt
Me, thinking about the Walnut Sticky Bun, Bowl of Bing Cherries, and large handfuls of Corn Chips I ate when I realized I forgot to eat breakfast: Ummm... kind of a salad.
I need a question answered please. Is trump allowed to leave the country pending the appeal we all know he is filing? A lot of hullabaloo about countries that may not grant him entry, but are we really in a situation that we allow a convicted felon to move about the globe?
@noondlyt I am also curious and asked elsewhere what this means regarding his ability to participate on the international stage.
Many countries, over 30 I believe, have rigid policy against convicted felons being ADMITTED into their countries. Now, obviously they can suspend or give him an exemption, but what if they simply choose not too?
If Canada, as an example, wanted to win a bid AGAINST the US...why not simply handle it in person while Trump stands at the border yelling for everyone to speak up because he can't hear them talking?
