Just A Thought

 I have always needed to have my ID to vote everywhere that I have lived and voted.  Where is it that people can vote without IDs??  Evidently, there are some places, but this seems strange.  If they were to require proof of citizenship and IDs and the names had to match, then obviously this would be a problem because not everyone has passports, and the names of married women would not match their birth certificates unless they left their names unchanged. 

 My crazy little kitty is now spayed and is not acting at all calm like she should after having surgery.  I lost her soft flower collar that I got for her. 🙁 They didn’t put it on her after her surgery, and I thought it was still secured to the straps of her carrier as it previously had been.  I got to the car and went to put it on her and realized that it had been dropped and was gone.  By the time I walked back to find it, it was nowhere to be found in the parking area or in the building.  Someone saw it and grabbed it I guess.  She just got canned food all over the cone, but at least she ate something.  Now she needs to rest! 💤 🐈💕

The art of Mr. Trump’s much better Iranian nuclear deal.  Fleeing potential assassination attempts on his life, while leaving his own people behind to be the unwitting decoys and targets.

Because I evidently can’t resist commenting, I’m driven at the moment to make a comment about this.  Does Trump really believe this shit or is he just trying to save face?  One never knows with him.  What does he truly believe and what does he know he is lying about?  It’s a perplexing question.  Truth be told I don’t think I really care.  I would just like him to be gone.  Gone as the United States of America’s president.  I didn’t really want to write another Trump thing, but I guess if I am to be honest with myself, I don’t think I will cease doing so as long as he continues to be the president. If these reflections filter into my thoughts, here they shall be.  If Mr. Trump has given up on any further military action with Iran  then this is actually a good thing.  He took an okay situation and turned it into something much worse but leaving this alone is better than further worsening the situation and getting more people killed.

The United States of America does not invade other countries and land on their soil and just begin drilling for oil without any authorization or permission.  Not with a normal president and during normal times that is.  We presently do not have a normal president though.  He is a freaking nut job.  And these most certainly are not normal times. 😳😵‍💫 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/aug/08/greenland-iwarning-trump-linked-oil-firm-prepares-drill https://www.youtube.com/live/vbot8zDgGDg?is=9MpIaUBujXE8nRLd https://youtu.be/NC5vl-GIvVQ?is=AIJ_cjnp1V_xasB2

Could our president be anymore openly racist?  And nothing is done about it.  He can’t be gone soon enough.   I’ll take the America on the right where people are all treated equally as human beings and all are respected and appreciated.  

 I started watching PBS documentaries through the subscription through Amazon Prime.  I’m really glad I did this.  I hadn’t really been finding anything anywhere else that I have felt really excited about watching.  I have though been feeling really enthusiastic about watching PBS documentaries.  It’s like I have a newfound passion for history.

 I’m on a roll, trying to knock as many things off of my to-do list as I can this week. 😁🙌

 Wow.  I just remembered something from my Instagram account from a long time ago.  I believe it was from when my photos app on my iPhone took some of my photos and created a video with music.  I shared it on my Instagram account.  I just thought of that.  I guess the app doesn’t do this anymore or if it does, I don’t see any notifications. I haven’t seen any videos made for me in a long time.

Mr. Trump is having another meltdown today.  He is probably set off, on top of other things, by the dismissal of the reflecting pool vandalism case.  These are just three of the many images and things that he has posted and shared.  As far as the two people reaching over the edge and into the reflecting pool in the video he shared, they are not vandals.  One just grabbed and kept a piece of the pool liner that was already detached and floating in the pool.  He or she did not cut any 350 foot gash or commit any intended vandalism. He or she evidently must have just wanted a souvenir of the actual state of what was taking place with the reflecting pool.  Not the most genius idea given that it involved Donald Trump and his “repaired and beautified” reflecting pool,  but they weren’t committing any actual vandalism. Update:  Another image that he just shared.  Someone please get this crazy man out of the White House!

 I just had a thought about Mr. Donald Trump.  He is not going to have any claim to being the rightful winner of the next election when is not one of the nominees.  How will he act and what will he do then?  He jokes about running again in 2028, but it’s not going to suffice as a claim and joke anymore when the time actually comes and this cannot become a reality.  Somehow I don’t think that this will sit just fine with Mr. Trump.  Assuming he is still living at that time.  I can’t imagine a man with such delusions of importance and magnificence and grandeur just peacefully and gracefully conceding that his political position and power has come to an end.  It is not just a term of presidency to him.  It is who he believes himself to rightfully be.  America’s president.

 I didn’t do much in the way of tasks today, but then I also didn’t do much with my time that was particularly pleasant or enjoyable either.  Oh well, some days are just like this I guess.  I did read a little bit of a magazine and I realized that at this point in my life, I’m really not interested in trying to comprehend anything that’s very difficult. 😝 My old brain just wants stuff that is easy to take in and comprehend.  I would definitely not want to be a college student at this point in my life. 🤯

 Hitler in the White House.  This is pretty much the equivalent shown in these images.  And Trump is his faithful and obliging sidekick when it is within his power to fulfill this role.  The world will breathe a sigh of relief when these two are relegated to history along with the one in Russia.  Maybe someday there will be a world where really bad actors don’t rise to positions of power. Who knew that in our lifetimes, and in the 21st century, our country was in for such a wretched political chapter.  This too shall pass.

 The Mazda car dealership in Mission Texas is really annoying.  I’m hearing a loud television and loud music at the same time.  It doesn’t make for a pleasant waiting experience.  Get me out of this place! 😒

I watched this movie again yesterday.  Normally a Disney movie would not be my choice if I wanted to find a movie to watch, but I love this movie!!  In addition to it being a great movie, I love having a feeling of wanting to connect with the culture of the native people where I live.  The Mexican culture is very much a part of the border area of Texas, where I live.  Coco is a movie that brings tears to my eyes and I’m not usually a sap about movies.

Evidently yesterday must not have been a good day for Mr. Trump.  He had a day of sharing all sorts of crazy images.  He may have his own people in the United States of America who enable and support his own vision of reality (most of the time) but this is not going to work for him with the rest of the world.  He seems to have been working hard to share and assert his own vision of reality.
