That is such a beautiful area. When we stayed in Aix-en-Provence for several days, we returned to Cassis for a second visit to sit in the cafes and enjoy the beach. First visit was the boat ride to the Calanques and stroll through the town, followed by a delicious lunch of mussels.

I would love to go on a 6-month cruise around the world starting tomorrow so I don’t see/hear the constant manure coming from the media. Seeing the hate is not good for our immune systems. We turn off the news, read books, watch Star Trek Voyager reruns or spend time outside (when it’s not so hot).

I’m pretty sure it’s the former. Anybody pushing a far right agenda already has a low bar for integrity.

Sigh…this Bitcoin industry reminds me of the “fracking is good for business and totally harmless” arguments.

This is a chilling (but not at all surprising) documentation of how profits win over human health considerations. Texas. The worst phrase in the long article is this:“Bitcoin Rights” bill signed by Oklahoma governor to prevent any attempts to ban the industry. Betting it won’t be near his backyard..

Bob Good LOST his race in the primary in a who’s the biggest MAGA campaign. In true GOP fashion, he’s challenging the results and exacting his revenge.

I agree with that statement. It’s been appalling, disheartening, and these “leaders” have a lot to answer for. My litmus test for Christianity - if you are merciless to those you consider as “less than or other”, you’ve failed.

Respectfully disagree. MANY of us in the Christian community never voted for Trump because we clearly saw his hatefulness and knew he’d be a danger - we just couldn’t imagine he’d be enabled by so many. The so-called “Christians” following him have rejected Jesus’ teachings to love their neighbors.

Great week of news from UK and France - hoping the U.S. voters send the same strong message to the haters, authors of Project 2025, and all the enablers of the Trump candidacy. Get out!

We used the word inquisition just a few days ago for what we’re seeing in this country, and based on history, it’s not at all farfetched. Wonder what the litmus test will be to pass? A copy of the DJT abomination Bible next to your bed?

More of that “can’t we all get along” attitude needed. Sadly, there are always wicked people busily creating new “bogeymen” and there’s a whole new group (all ages) embracing that philosophy.

They have seen it all by that age, and somewhere a few decades earlier, most of them realize the “bogeymen” they were so concerned about when they were being raised aren’t really “bogeymen” at all.
