There were also lots of much smaller No Kings protests around the area, despite rain and thunder.

It's raining here too, but we're officially in a drought, so it's much welcome. Just laying on a sofa enjoying the sounds of the rain and thunder.

I went to the gym early this morning to work off some of the stress from this week and got a fantastic workout in. It felt amazing at the time, but I'm a wee bit sore now.

There are lots of different plant-based diets so maybe there's just some confusion. I had to explain to a friend recently that no, vegetarians don't eat fish.
