As millions of families are losing snap benefits…

Wanna-be dictator trump wastes more $$ on vanity projects paid for by taxpayers.

Just let that fucking sink in…

I have no words… ~mg

conformity IS a tragedy…

It took me years to collect every first edition of his books…but well worth it.

In 2003, after those series went out of print, a publishing firm began reissuing some of the titles, although not in the original publication order.

In these books, outdated facts were updated at the back of the book but the original artwork was preserved.

The original publications were from 1959 - 1974.

Let’s have it installed and ready for Sunday breakfast

[nwmonkeygirlsblog]

Nothing compares to the ovens of the 1940/50s.

No joke, I literally rented a house just because it had an old Wedgewood stove.

…

👆in my grandmother’s basement was a stove just like that one…still worked well and used during the holidays. ~mg

Last year I was gifted a thoroughly chewed up chicken bone from my favorite crow Howard.

I was so touched, I wish I could have saved it. ~mg

Tagged by @themerrygnome to answer three random facts about yourself and to send it to my last 7 blogs in my notifications.

1. I have lived in 3 countries outside of my home country (USA), and have lived in 8 states.

2. I have visited 30+ countries and 43 of the US states.

3. I once hit Jeff Bezos in the butt with a dodgeball. Sadly, it did not knock any sense into him.

Tagging the last 7 of you that interacted with my blog: @motleycruesixx @topromoteme @the-football-chick @nwmonkeygirlsblog @macrolit @3novab33

3 random facts;

1) I was supposed to move to Shanghai but then 9/11 happened, I was already living in Singapore at the time.

2) The first time I ever saw a photo of myself younger than 5…I was 32 yrs old.

3) I’m 64.9% Irish, Scottish and Welsh…not a drop of English(yes it matters).

[nwmonkeygirlsblog]

Awww yes…

The total hypocrisy of our US politicians.

In this economy…any employee who went absent for 4 months…would be fired.

But no…we still paid his salary.

VOTE THEM OUT.

What character quality have you lost along the way that you wish you still had?

That one is easy: Patience for stupid people.

[nwmonkeygirlsblog]

Oh I lost that decades ago…

I’m not interested in getting that patience back.

I only have a finite amount of fucks to give in a single day.

If you’ve hit my “fuck quota”…which to be honest depending on my location & current company can exhaust itself by noon….you’re shit outta luck buddy.

I’m adhd, with CPTSD/austism…with no filter 99% of the time.

Anything less than full authenticity, integrity and being a decent fucking person…I will see thru your mask.

100% of the time.

*PSA…little grumpy today…as I ran outta fucks at noon
