    Do something nice for your mom today. I was lucky to still have mine, she was here to nurse me through a major surgery recovery. As if I was 5 again. If you no longer have yours with you , my condolences. No amount of time really heals that loss.

    Her hands held me gently from the day I took my first breath.

    Her hands helped to guide me as I took my first step.

    Her hands held me close when the tears would start to fall.

    Her hands were quick to show me that shewould take care of it all

    The hand that rocks the cradle

    also makes the house a home.It is the prayers of the mother

    that keeps the family strong

    In this galaxy, there’s a mathematical probability of three million Earth-type planets. And in all of the universe, three million million galaxies like this. And in all of that… and perhaps more, only one of each of us.

    Elon Musk tweet:Tesla is filing a lawsuit against Alameda County immediately. The unelected & ignorant “Interim Health Officer” of Alameda is acting contrary to the Governor, the President, our Constitutional freedoms & just plain common sense!

    Frankly, this is the final straw. Tesla will now move its HQ and future programs to Texas/Nevada immediately. If we even retain Fremont manufacturing activity at all, it will be dependen on how Tesla is treated in the future. Tesla is the last carmaker left in CA.

    Thought experiment or Conspiracy “Theory”?

    If the GOP wanted to “save face” to clean up their mess by installing President Pelosi…

    What would they be doing differently?

    Newly unveiled documents suggest nearly a dozen U.S. Secret Service members have tested positive for COVID-19, Yahoo News reports.

    According to documents from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that were obtained by Yahoo News, there were 11 active cases at the agency as of Thursday. On top of those currently infected, another 23 Secret Service members have reportedly recovered from coronavirus. Another 60 employees are allegedly self-quarantining.

    It’s not clear if any have recently been working at the White House or have had any contact with President Trump or Vice President Pence.

    Yeah, The GOP don’t need those pesky “Free Markets”, no how!

    ~

    A group of nearly 40 Republican lawmakers on Friday urged the Trump administration to take actions against financial institutions that have shied away from financing certain fossil fuel projects.

    In a letter to the White House, they claimed that policies against financing fossil fuel projects were discriminatory.

    Banks and other institutions have cited investment risk and social responsibility as they have backed away from financing such projects.

    Peace on earth, goodwill to all…just don’t ask me to social distance or wear a face mask for the good of everyone on this amazingly beautiful planet. I don’t think this big ol’ ship we’re sailing through the galaxy on will miss us one bit when we’re gone…and I don’t blame her.
