WaPo: Hegseth gave an order on the first Caribbean boat strike, saying to leave no survivors.
"As two men clung to a stricken, burning ship targeted by SEAL Team 6, the Joint Special Operations commander followed the defense secretary’s order to kill."

THIS IS WHAT FOLLOWING ILLEGAL ORDERS MEANS.

Over the next week (what thanksgiving break? lol) I have to read my book again and finalize it before it goes to *print* and I’m literally paying attention to details like colon vs comma and I’m sure most authors are like this and that’s one reason why you should buy our books. We really care.

On tonight’s episode: Pam Bondi lunges at Lindsey Halligan: "You ruined my James Comey revenge!" Halligan yells, “You were the idiot who let the statute of limitations run!” A drunk Jeanine Pirro pushes them apart. Pam snarls at Pirro: “I’m not through with you, Miss Can’t Get a Fucken Indictment!”

Just doing a solid, competent job on a reasonably consistent basis makes you extraordinary.

(In other words, don’t put so much pressure on yourself)

A very kind person who will remain unnamed (but privately credited) donated $50 to me when I bitched about my car last week. I really will be ok and have more than most, so I donated $50 to Dare to Care, because every $1 you spend provides food for 2 meals. Please give to a food bank if you can 💗

This is a poem I wrote in 2021 as part of this essay on the vaccine apartheid. It is so depressing how in more ways than we can count, for more and more people, this earth is deliberately being made a mass grave. One day, "some will die" may become "all must die".
