Excuse me for venting. I work as a senior caregiver; my clients have TV remotes with 27 buttons. They struggle with them. Could someone invent a simple senior friendly remote with just the basic commands? How hard could this be? It’s not like we’re all getting younger.

Woke later than usual; light seeping into the sky and birds singing snd I realised: it’s here, it’s finally here at last! A happy, healthy, hope-filled #WinterSolstice to you and yours!

Remember back in the early 1960’s comedian Vaughn Meader made a fortune satirizing JFK and the First Family, even getting digs in at Goldwater. The White House never complained or tried to have him fired.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.
