I hear your point on the video, but the book definitely talks about Jefferson and others. Many others. 

In the olden tymes wouldn’t they have just drowned him “accidentally” in a vat of malmsey?   Or walled him up with the Beast of Glamis? I’m always amazed that the queen favors him. 

Some people really don’t know. A friend of mine was doing it because otherwise his glasses got fogged up and he couldn’t see where he was going. 

He knows what he’s doing. I don’t believe he is as oblivious as he seems. He’s a fascist, racist monster and is longing for the day when he can declare martial law.

Car seats or, as we called them when I was a kid, mom’s lap. We also got put in the back of the station wagon, where you could roll about freely—especially fun when dad turned sharp corners.  There are days I’m amazed I’m still around.

Yeah with Melania Braun. )And I have nothing more to say, because lately all I do is quietly cry.) 

They couldn’t enforce social distancing because they didn’t know who were in family groups? First, they could have limited the # of people they let in—fewer people=more room. Second, this doesn’t look like family fun day, so that argument is nonsense. Third, personally, I think that pool looks gross.

He’s lying, as always, but on the slender chance he is not lying I say, let him have at it and be a guinea pig. Just as I say let those states where everyone is dying for a hair cut and whooping it up in bars be our guinea pigs. The northeast (and west coast) must take care of their own. 

One of my sisters, who I know has been socially distant and working from home, still plans to go on a cruise next year.Why anyone would get on a cruise ship at any time is beyond me. 

I lie awake at night worrying about the food chain breaking and Trump’s undiagnosed madness, so this kind of shallow gossip is welcome by me and you can bet I will be reading this book.

He’s such an idiot he doesn’t even realize how strong, smart, ambitious, and entrepreneurial Donna Reed was. She won an Oscar, yet embraced television. And, a registered Republican, she co-chaired Another Mother for Peace and supported McCarthy for president. He’d’ve hated her.

If I can get a little sartorial joy out of wearing a cute mask I’ll take it. I heard daily sirens (a little fewer lately) and have seen the city I love decimated by this illness, so I’m not denying the horror of this. And, if it helps get people to wear them, bring ‘em on. If the logo of my partner’s fave sports team…

Why won’t anyone stand up and ask, What the fuck are you talking about? Instead, I saw a dr on one of the morning shows address his comments as if Trump is sane (though they say don’t do this). I still believe he has dementia of some type.  And I’m also waiting for some fool to swallow a flashlight to ‘get the rays.’…

I would love to see my friends, sit in a bar, drive to the beach. I’d love not to wear a mask, worry about my job and my friends’ jobs. Hell, this was going to be the year of Europe! I want to see my extended family. I’m already sad and tired and really it’s only been 30 days. And down the road, things will open…

I announced to Mr Machine last night what we can form a new land called “Midlantica” and I wasn’t really kidding. Yes, there are good people everywhere, but it doesn’t feel like a lot of the USA wants us northeasterners anyway. 

Yeah well I wasn’t born 100 years ago. I’m separated from my friends, my family, and my job. I’d rant but it’d be off topic. I say do whatever gets you through, because it’s not going to matter anyway once the shortages kick in.

Kelly please keep these royal stories coming. I guess I could tell myself they are frivolous, but I need a desperate break from the sirens outside my window all day long.

When I was a girl you entered a scary dark little cubby of a room called the confessional and a little door opened, like a speakeasy, through which you told the priest you chewed gum during mass and swore a few times. Oddly, I liked the secrecy of that more than telling some man face to face that I had impure…

They were showing a national spelling bee competition yesterday, which Mr Machine found truly engrossing.

Thanks a whole lot corporate America. After 4 lousy weeks you are cutting your employees off from their earnings and I bet your stocks will still be ok. (I will say good for them to keep the health care benefits.) If it were 6months that might be a different story...but this is just greed.
