My husband put the news on this morning and I did not have the heart to tell him”turn it off” so I pretty much ignored it. But they did have a “rascist rant” about Somalis and shit countries. He asked why can’t we get immigrants from Norway or Denmark. He does realize those are socialists?

Well, well, well…. An analysis of voter registration records reveals Republican operative Scott Presler had 3 out-of-state voters use his Pennsylvania address to vote in the 2024 election. This is what voter fraud looks like.

ICE said Antonio Moreida jumped onto the hood of their vehicle. Now a local police investigation concludes that an ICE agent struck him with his SUV. The routine lying by ICE is the result of the example set by leadership of the Department of Homeland Security.

I did it. I changed my mind about my original pick for city council. So I spoiled my absentee ballot and ended up voting in person. And I picked the Edmund Fitzgerald sticker because Duluth…

And I marked my ballot 2x for Abdul.. once for a straight ticket, once in the Senate race, just to be sure. Wish it counted twice but once is enough.l

I should warn all my new “followers” I do not refollow if you have no intro and no no posts. And usually don’t follow if it’s all reposts. But the no intro is a no GO

You can't afford a full tank of gas but Mike Rogers is chartering private planes and repairing his campaign's BMW. Summer's over so yachting turns to jetting I guess! Mike Rogers is just looking to go through the revolving door of politics to make another $14M.

Seeing a new scare tactic from our “friends” in the GOP.Benzie county Republicans have these signs, “don’t California My Michigan” . Yup the purplest of purple is going California..

And meanwhile in Manistee County. It’s socialism. “Vote Republican, no socialism.” I bet most of the Rs can’t even define socialism accurately. Even if they own a fancy lake house.. 😉

Sometimes I amaze myself. I was all impressed that the little market in Honor had one of my favorite songs playing. Your own Special Way. Guess what? I had my phone in my jacket pocket and it somehow was auto playing! 😀😆🤣

I just replied on an antiAI post. Just yesterday I had a run in with a Customer service “rep” (AI). No help at all. So Old Navy is losing me as a customer.

Was I satisfied? Nope. Did they offer a solution? No! Was not asked this but was there anything they could have done better? Of course. Will recommend them to my friends? NO unless what I ordered looks like it cost 1k, it is going back and I’m removing your app. WTG Gap/OldNavy

I’ve been going thru my tee shirts and packing away summer clothes. I found a real treasure. Truly heartbreaking these days. We lost that battle this last time, let’s not do it a third time..

Just saw a sign that said: Democratic Socialism=Communism Vote Republican sponsored by Muskegon Consertative Woman Group South of DT Muskegon on US31N. I hate when women are stupid and vote against their own and other women’s interests.

We have a spare bed in the guest room. It is the only double bed in our house. We are Up North and in a cabin. Needed sheets for the double bed, went through out extra storage in the guest room. I found a brand new set of Egyptian cotton, bought on clearance. Guess how much? It’s shocking!

Dr Abdul El-Sayed MD. One of our most effective weapons against Fascists. Smart, a physician, public health expert, young, & an amazing orator-Which matters. When they’ve punched at him, his strikes back have been brutally honest & piercing-Oval Felon is the exact OPPOSITE of this great man. #VOTE🇺🇸🦅

This quote! Love it! Michigan Vote Blue so we can call him our Senator!

Me and my old grumpy man. Trying to smile after a not good hockey game. Check the score. But so far no major blind spots from seats, so that’s better. 😀

I had a dilemma this morning. First real hockey game of the season, and Frankie is suspended. I wear #91 as a current player. So what to do? Back to Jonny. I was going to retire him until the team retires him. Tuesday, I’m going to wear Fleury cuz Penguins, I guess.

That last goal was all Kane! Frankie will get it but Kane set the whole thing up. I hope they all remember that going forward. PS I wasn’t all in on Kane but he is teaching these kids.

It's Artificial Intelligence. It's Twitter. It's the Gulf of Mexico. It's Lake Ontario. It's the Department of Defense. It's the Kennedy Center.

I was just reminded that this week is Fire Safety week. Guaranteed fire drills. At least in Chicago and area. The anniversary of the Great Chicago Fire and the Peshitigo Wisc. Fire (which was actually worse) also.

Wow the Yankees are gone! I haven’t paid much attention and I don’t really follow the AL much at all. But theYankees are usually built for the playoffs.

Frankie gets his first goal of the season. Hawks get their first win. 4-2. They looked much better, tonight. They may be on the way back, gelling. We see them Saturday.
