Bonjour! I’m an American transplant to France (along with my dog Oreo) after living most of my life in California followed by a couple of brief stops in Oregon and the Chicago area. Love dogs, wine, travel, baseball and Broadway.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

A sad story in two sentences:
I walked through the rain and bought a pain au chocolate from the boulangerie. Then I dropped said pain au chocolate on the ground on the way home. 😞🌧️

Just stepped into a restaurant in France where I was turned down because I was a party of one. 😳There’s a first time for everything. (I will, however, not be back with guests.)

As someone who was raised in an EXTREMELY strict religion/cult, I can attest to this. They’re afraid of you being exposed to anything that could cause you to THINK and see the light.

I don’t even know what the answer to today’s Wordle is. Like, as an actuality. 🤷🏻♀️

Every local government should be arresting ICE agents acting without a judicial warrant, especially those in masks. Stand up! Make your region not worth it, and hold those accountable who decide to f*ck around.

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

I wondered about this. I should have known Judge Jackson had a good reason for doing what she did.
Read about WHY Ketanji Brown Jackson stayed the SNAP order. Her move is probably the best solution for getting SNAP benefits approved quickly. open.substack.com/pub/stevevla...
190. SNAP WTF?
A very quick explainer on what (and why) Justice Jackson issued an "administrative stay" in the SNAP case late on Friday night, and on what's likely to happen next

In the course of changing residences, I've been without Echo (Alexa) for 3 months. In that time, the voice has changed. I added beer to my shopping list and Alexa said "It looks like you're gearing up for a liquid celebration." Not only do I get a new voice, but judgement is included too?

For the past six months I’ve had a tambourine in the boot of my car that jingles every time I go over a speed bump, and I think this is the kind of everyday whimsy we all need more of in 2025.

If you aren’t using Google to photograph instructions written in French on how to use a microwave in order to translate them, what are you doing? 😉

I don’t want to say that France is different but, first of all, my dog is in the restaurant with me and second of all, the waiter just brought her a bowl of water unprompted.
