Bwahhhhha.....the best kids cartoon show ever. Yeah sure........most of the humour went over the kids heads...But I saw Marry Poppins at the cinema with my Grandmother.

I never learned of the Suffragettes, or heard of them at that age..it was all floatinfg to the ceiling or Supaclafragalisticxpladocious, feeding a bird a day, and flying kites...............fantasy.........but it all fell into place years later. My Grandmother was a very independent woman. Strong jaw..iron stare, an independent mind, a heart of gold. Cooked the best corned silverside and mashed veges ever.......Had those little sticky things that hung down from the ceiling that used to trap flies.....:)

Although feeding a bird a day and Tuppence...even back then had an effect on my life.

Sea Turtles are having a very good 2020. Empty beaches mean undisturbed nests. No harassment by humans.

These lil fellas are the king of the beach.

And... Less human activity means less light/sound pollution. All the animals are thrilled that we're staying the fuck home (those of us complying).

I'm not ok with what's happening. But I think nature is doing what it does. And the rest of our planets inhabitants are grateful. We've done a lot of harm. They deserved a break

Did somebody make an announcement the Moroccan couscous cures everything? Even the 20lb of couscous are sold out.

Israeli couscous ya might get lucky with. Time to broaden my couscous game.

*actual guess is supply line issues since the brand I use is from over seas*

Me watching state restrictions protesters: these people look awfully familiar.

Me checking footage of protesters seeking to restrict women's access to healthcare: son of a bitch!

Also Me: wow. That is a sea of white people.

"My rights don't where your feelings begin"*

*Does not reflect The Rights views on abortion, immigration, social safety nets, civil right, equal rights, income equality, universal healthcare, wealth distribution, climate change, environmental protection, affordable housing, educational reform...... and the list goes on.

Applies only to Guns, God and Trump
 
The Right are awfully fond of accusing Liberals of using Covid-19 to advance The Leftist Political Agenda

When reality is that The Right has used Covid to deny access to legal abortion *a constitutional right* and push through immigration policies that the courts have overturned too many damn times already. And a million other conservative fueled civil rights and environmental nightmare moves.

Just learned my Uncle passed. My dad's older brother. NOT covid-19 related. His body was donated to Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

While I haven't seen him in 15 years, he did take me to my first Broadway play (Brighton Beach Memors). And his partner made the BEST homemade vegetarian lasagna i have ever had!

RIP

Hold onto those memories, Enid. I'm sorry for your loss.
