Instead, she chose a path of sustained and uncompromising ideological conviction. Her legacy is not merely in her activism but in her very existence as a person who synthesized a unique blend of intellectual, political, and personal choices to form a life of profound authenticity. She was a woman who was a serious intellectual but not an academic, a radical activist but not a simple follower, and a cultivated individual who rejected the commercial trappings of taste. She was an archetype of a particular, and perhaps rare, kind of post-war intellectual: one who lived her philosophy in every choice, from the food she ate to the clothes she wore, leaving behind a testament to a life lived without compromise. less

It was pretty groovy but also a little sad because it was the closing event for the Parksville Beach Festival. I have been having a lot of summertime fun for the past 3 months but now the only thing left to do in Parksville is shop.
I do need new fall and winter out fits plus were getting a new Dollar Rama store in October so I guess its not so bad.
Cheers and happy weekend

He couldn’t even meet the Army’s officer minimum for IQ in 1968. So I think that is why he went with the bone spur instead of the moron story.
Cheers and happy weekend!

The supplies, which included intrauterine devices, implants, and pills, were intended for women in low-income countries became the latest casualties of the dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
Why? because the state department deemed them "not life saving".

He's heading away from the East Coast. He looks out the window, his face bruised and exhausted, but a small, defiant smile plays on his lips. He finally understands his chess buddy’s angry plea, and his own: Go fuck yourself. Your going back East. Go eff yourself after long stare.
Sean Spicer once hid in some bushes on the WH law to avoid reporters questions about James Comey’s firing.
And I think Karoline Leavitt will be doing the same thing soon. Cheers

Most drug busts at sea involve a small to medium sized craft manned by a couple of people. The second one is usually there to throw the drugs overboard if necessary. So I think Trump made the whole thing up or exaggerated the numbers. And he murdered 11 people. Cheers!

These public statements and actions, particularly his strong opinions on immigration, politics, and his public feuds with former bandmates and critics, have led many to label him as eccentric, irrational, or "insane".
Mike Johnson just claimed that Trump was a FBI spy and he was helping them gather information about Epstein.
And I am sure that will be their new BS story.
Cheers and happy weekend!
Was it a personal dilemma to care about a bank account when you are so smart!? But no, they said go away. He said go away when I was a dumb drunk libertarian?

Part of a broader effort to present a more aggressive, victorious military to the world.
It would likely cost billions of dollars to change the names of hundreds of Pentagon agencies, their stationary, emblems, plaques and other signage at the Defense Department, along with and bases around the world. Cheers!

I bet at this very moment Trump is planing another meeting with Putin and he is dreaming of walking hand and hand with Putin. And if that happens I hope Putin pulls a Melania on Trump. Cheers!

So I replied -Yeah but to make his new heart more compatible it will have to be a heart from a baboon.
Then I gave it some more thought and added - Here is how Trump’s life will change after he gets a new baboon heart – yet remain the same.

It is more than just a physical address; it is a feeling of belonging, safety, and identity. While you can revisit the physical location, the saying suggests you cannot fully recapture that original feeling because you—and everything around you—have changed.You can never go home!
