"People speak of hope as if it is this delicate, ephemeral thing made of whispers and spider's webs. It's not. Hope has dirt on her face, blood on her knuckles, the grit of the cobblestones in her hair, and she just spat out a tooth as she rises for another go."

Fun fact about me: I love Big Band music. When I was a young lass, I would collect cassettes and still have them. This one is a banger.

The galaxy is a dumpster fire yet I must endure... going to a conference next week and realized that I don't have a goal for it. I'm just rawdawging a conference with no goal? What am I, in sales?

History is riddled with examples of why we should not be doing this. But this, too, will pass one way or another. And unless the democracy-loving population gangs together, I can't help but think that future generations will study this time as the middle of the end of the American experiment.

What would life be like if social media never happened?
I think of that every time I start a skeet then delete it. Just in case anyone is wondering why I don't post often.

Yesterday, Spc Sarah Becstrom was laid to rest in West Virginia at a VA National Cemetery.
Surprisingly none of the major major news media mention it. No flags were lower to half staff.
Well the Convicted FElon keeps the news focus on him.

911 operator: what’s your emergency?
Me: a dumpster is on fire at the mall*, I can’t decide if I should watch it burn or have the fire department put it out
911: ma’am?

At 51, I'm already planning on moving outside the US in 10 or so years. When I tell people 70+ this they look at me funny and say 'that's a terrible idea.' When I tell younger people they nod and say they can see why.
