no one cares about your political opinion

May 22, 2025

From a corporate exec friend on Facebook calling Trump Jr. “classless” while saying how great it would be for a building to fall on his head (that’s classy?) — to others calling for Jill Biden to be arrested for elder abuse — I’ve read more than enough. I’m sure you have too. The stupidity comes from both the left and the right.

I like Heath candy bars. Maybe you’re not a fan although I offer you a taste every time we’re together. You say no, you prefer Cookies and Cream bars and offer me a bite. We’re still friends and neither has had a change of heart. Then we talk about the weather or our kids or grandkids.

We don’t keep harping about the darned candy bars. Right? We don’t call each other ignorant or take sides over milk chocolate vs. white chocolate. It’s too bad that our choice of political party isn’t viewed in a similar fashion as our choice of a candy bar.

And the fake news?

That article that said my peony would bloom in 8-48 hours once put in water? That was a lie!

still no bloom

The other stems I picked for the arrangement are now dead but the darned peony still hasn’t bloomed. 😠

And then I ate the cucumbers!

I love cucumbers in salad — and on poke bowls. Gimme cucumbers with french dressing and there doesn’t even have to be lettuce to make me happy. I like them so much that I ate them twice yesterday. Of course, that was BEFORE I got my email from Walmart telling me they were recalled because of salmonella. ARG!

Could that be considered elder abuse? Asking for a friend.


Now you know: Few species are known to go through menopause, with humans and chimpanzees being the only documented primates. Scientists aren’t sure why.
