Yesterday there were only 152 seditionists. Rather than some of them coming to their senses, another person added their name to the list of trumplicans who will contest the Electoral College votes. Essentially, when they do this on Wednesday, it means they are saying the courts are wrong, the Secretary of States are wrong, Governors… Continue reading 153 Seditionists

New Year’s Cleaning
When a new OS comes out for an Apple product, I like to be one of the first to download it and see what it offers. To my surprise, when I went to do an update a few days ago, I received an error message stating I didn’t have enough space. Another 35G (yes, Apple’s… Continue reading New Year’s Cleaning
Down a Rabbit Hole
Vacations are for relaxing. A time to read. A time to binge. And I took time over the past few days to relax, to read, and to binge. I relaxed for New Years. Finished two books and started a third, and have gone down the rabbit hole of The Watchmen. Still in the middle of… Continue reading Down a Rabbit Hole
Are We About to Have a President Pence?
From news being reported, the lame duck is on his way back to Washington a day earlier than scheduled. Pence cut short his trip to Israel and is on his way back to DC as well. When an administration makes some drastic changes to schedules, it is a time of foreboding. When the lame duck… Continue reading Are We About to Have a President Pence?
Our Values Drive Our Priorities: Vaccinations

Interesting, or maybe not with the lame duck still in charge, there is no orderly plan on how, when, or who will be vaccinated. I’m not quite sure why, even… Continue reading Our Values Drive Our Priorities: Vaccinations
For the Common Good
Senator Bernie Sanders went to bat for the common people again today. Once again, Bernie was shot down by Senate leadership. If we’ve learned anything about him though, Bernie will be back at bat for us in no time at all. So many people think Bernie being a Democratic Socialist is a bad thing. Helping… Continue reading For the Common Good
Is Reading Good For You?
I love to read. I met my book goal in Goodreads for 2020. I’ve always loved reading and will continue to do so. Rupaul says it best, “Reading is Fundamental!” But is reading good for you? I ask because my neck was hurting like crazy over the weekend, and I had a headache for a… Continue reading Is Reading Good For You?
Nashville Bombing is Another Scary Story
As I read through the Washington Post story this morning about the Christmas Day bombing in Nashville, I, as have many others, have wondered what was the point of it. The bomber provided a warning that sounded first like gunshots to get the police involved. Then gave another warning telling people to evacuate and how… Continue reading Nashville Bombing is Another Scary Story
12,000,000
It is Saturday, December 26, 2020. Today 12,000,000 people are slated to lose their unemployment benefits. Most likely their sole means of income. It means if half of those no longer receiving benefits are married, 18 million people are now in danger. If just a quarter of those no longer receiving benefits have only one… Continue reading 12,000,000
