It had the most enormous boot. It was in England. Just throw all the kids stuff in from a distance: no packing required.

I had a Saab 95 and the key went in the middle where the hand brake is. Sorry to jump in. 😄

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

I once saw Diane Keaton interviewed with two other women who were more scantily clad. The interviewer asked if she ever dressed like that and Keaton replied “Oh no! I always like to be fully dressed” and it stuck in my mind because I do too.

Until recently, my deodorant was $3.50. On sale. It was on sale today. For $8.50!!
Regular price $12.50!!!! Where will it end? If my salary doubled, I’d still be behind where I was in 2018.

I have always wondered about this.

My bestie and I saw that in the theatre (of course in the theatre, back in the day) and we were so transfixed we decided to keep our seats and watch the next show too. That was a fun thing you could do. Unless I am mistaken, it had an intermission.

I think they should stay in place. One can avoid the tickets completely by slowing down. Not an insurmountable problem.

Prime Minister Carney, please no more fossil fuel. We need to meet the moment. We need renewables.
