This was put out exactly a month ago. Or in American politics time: five years ago. That Sunday I turned 65. Four Sundays later, there was a seismic shift in the dynamics when Pres. Biden bowed out and Vice President Harris took over at the top of the ticket and the "KHive" have embraced "brat summer" with CharliXCX getting 50 M views. for her tweet about that. Now at my age and gender I have almost no understanding of 'brat summer". But if it gets Kamala Harris elected President, it has my full support.

Don't get me wrong I have the CharliXCX track "Break the Rules" downloaded on a music service. I think it was either free or I heard it on SNL and I forget how long ago, but it jams.

Two years ago today the Dobbs decision came down overturning Roe v Wade. This is what a good friend of yours wrote in Facebook that day:

"Millions of women will die. The republican party doesn’t care if a young girl has been raped or even as a victim of incest rape. Every single one of the republican nominees supreme court justices lied under oath. If you vote Republican, you have blood on your hands, both in the idiotic Quest to have moronic unsafe gun laws, and in the disgusting move to control a woman’s body. Are you a republican? Blood on your hands. Every child that dies from school shooting, every girl that dies trying to save her life after her cousin raped her. Fuck you Republicans"- Tara Strong
