Good job, Liz. No election denier liars! He wouldn't answer if he thought it was or not. That should be a basic litmus test for a government position.

Well damn. Trump's playing with fire. China propping up Iran isn't good for us. But glad they're sending a message to Don.

I've thought forever that the US should form a tight alliance with Japan. Wonderful to hear this. They're wise.

Please, please, let it be us someday!!

Didn't know this. Yay

Oh, damn. I almost killed myself on a moped. And a skateboard. Did well with a pogo stick 🤪Sounds like I better stick to 4 wheels. Excellent driver though...

Oh, thank you got all that info! I'd have to bring it inside my small place. Of it only goes 12 mph, you must not go very far? It's not a car replacement? Some here drive in the roadway. Also, rain is an issue? I looked up prices. A lot. Txs again

Nostalgia day. My fave. I liked the artists that were clearly unique, with a style all their own. Prine, Lowell. You could feel them in their music...70s today.

They must be so fed up

Been watching BBC. I like them.

I'd have to get a trike because I can't balance consistently. I see them around. Nice

Good. Don't deal with bullies threatening to destroy you.

I knew a schizophrenic who sounded like that. He was God's man as well and sometimes God. Depending on the day.

That's how I imagine one of mine in kitty heaven. She was a tuxedo too 🥰

We don't know that we won't get a measly 7 votes. He's going to keep screwing up. This is nothing like the first 2. Nothing. We don't know and should do what's called for. Don't surrender beforehand! He's going to f*** up so badly, even Republicans will fear our safety. Get it rolling. Ambush him.

For every lie while selling Trump fascism, he will be held accountable.

He was meeting with Putin at one point. His restitution should be going off media for good..

We now have Astronauts for America! They came together to work toward restoration of democracy and return to the constitution and rule of law. Brave enough to say we don't have it now. I'm encouraged!

This will have an impact for us! And it was on Fox! Bipartisan Astronauts for America. Defending democracy and uniting. This is just excellent and I commend these people. The best of the best. Wonder how Trump will react.

The symptom I hate most about depression is the total lack of that stubborn motivation. It's just a horrible feeling.

Occlude is such a nice sounding word. Thanks for sharing
