IDK why ppl do that. The mother of one of my son’s friends walked into my home, saw our fam photo on the wall, and said, “I don’t like your hair like that.” I mean, why??

I know we all have different tastes and opinions when it comes to gardens, but my oldest friend told me the other day that she didn't like mine, that it was too busy. I'll be honest, I'm still smarting at the comment!

This speech is even more chilling when you realize he is trying to emulate Winston Churchill’s “Fight them on the Beaches” speech. Churchill was speaking of the Nazi regime,DeSantis is speaking about normal Americans. The contrast here is terrifying.

Putting this out there. Would anyone be interested in contributing to an anthology on loss, were I to be able to put such a thing together over the next 18 months? Short non-fiction and creative non-fiction. Bereavement if you would want, loss of friendships in the sea changes...

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: We live in the digital age. Are we really assuming that the Trump/Kushner gang hasn’t already digitized all the classified and top secret documents they had hoarded in boxes at Mar-a-Lago?

96 year old Tony Bennett has Alzheimer’s & has reportedly been “lost & bewildered” many times in the past 2 years. His touring sched has kept him from further deterioration. Weekly singing is said to keep his brain stimulated & spared him worse symptoms

There’s a candle at the vet’s office. On a little table, to the side.
When it’s lit, no one speaks. Clients come in and offer their papers and sit down quietly. No one makes jokes. Everyone is quiet.
Because the candle is lit, and someone in the back is saying goodbye.

Mitch McConnell admits today the Republicans are likely going to lose seats in the Senate.
They're shook. Keep donating, keep door knocking, keep phone banking, keep writing postcards. We have them on the ropes.

I have tried my whole life to think I can sing, and I try. In the shower, in the car by myself, in the basement, out in the yard. But this here? This is some magic gift of the gods.

The college drop-off pics make me think we should start EmptyNestbnb. People pay to stay in our kids' rooms while they're away & amenities include nagging, meals they won't like, & sitting next to us while we cry and page through photo albums from 2003. Look for me on Shark Tank!

The Inflation Reduction Act is now law.
Giving Medicare the power to negotiate lower prescription drug prices. Ensuring wealthy corporations pay their fair share in taxes.
And taking the biggest step forward on climate in our history.

Every so often you get reminded of why it matters that you write. Case in point from @TheSunMagazine. My little essay about making coffee for my wife made its way to a group of incarcerated writers, who, in an act of generosity, began a ritual of making coffee for each other.

Apparently daydreaming about your story does not, in fact, make your story spontaneously appear fully written in your word document.

Just a reminder that when my mom was dying of cancer, Donald Trump slapped my father on his back and said, “Bobby, I hear it’s time to find you a new younger one…”. Back in 1997. Never forget.
