out of towners YouTube video by McPepper

I've always loved Sandy Dennis monologue at the end of the original Out of Towners: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOjo...

I love how you consistently show your Littles that bad moments pass, good moments are to be savored, and that we have the power to make good moments together.

Thanks for the kind words! We are happy to have you join our friendly group of screenwriters! #SASWG #scriptsky

I voted via mail-in ballot in Texas primary today. Now that postmarks are irrelevant and USPS can take its sweet time, will my vote even be counted? Will it get across town in six days? Stay tuned.

Probably my years at NSA -- the fluke that got me in, weird experiences during, and eventual realization that my life mission had changed and it was time to go home and be with my kids.

Hmm, now you've got me thinking.

One of my all-time favorites!! Treat yourself to some laughs.

You don't know me, but I'm so sorry you're having a bad time of it right now. Hang on. I hope it's just one of those sucky days (winter Mondays are ripe for this) that will soon give way to better times.

I hope she feels better soon.

Try John Lennon's IMAGINE, to start (or re-start) your day with peace and hope.

Thank you. I have despised this song for decades. I love the skating, though!

I once read about dopamine (?) from doing a small intentional task. It gives a micro-mood lift to declare a tiny goal (ex, empty one wastebasket) and accomplish it. Repeat as needed.

Not a miracle but I have found it helpful. Also, a meal sounds smart.

I hope you feel better.

Kevin Kline in the movie Dave, holding babies.

Good choices. My fave is "Dave."

When someone didn't show up to pitch tonight, I offered to jump in. Wish I'd had a lick of lipstick on, but it went well and I got helpful feedback. Always be ready, is what I'm saying. #scriptsky

Is good time, Lisa. Thanks for the good time share!

Sky high weird.

Post a banger that isn’t in English.

Broken Truth- live in San Antonio YouTube video by Tim Grimm

This isn't my type of music, but thanks, Tim Grimm. I hope you reach a lot of people. When a country singer feels outrage at the chaos around us, it feels unifying, and like maybe things are shifting.

Favorite line: Damn that man.

No new pictures. Where are you mentally?

Yes, Henry. My old linguistics professor.

I won't repost the article, but I'm disgusted w Univ of Ill students who support ICE.

I'm indebted to my old U of I professors (immigrants!):
Kahane (Jew imprisoned by Mussolini),
Zgusta (fled Czech in '68)
Chen (Taiwan)
Kachru (India)
and others

I weep for our country now being hollowed out.

Thanks, Rachel!

Thanks, Adele!

Thank you! Got the good news today! So pleased !

"Take your coffee and leave" vibes.

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

Statue of Holger Danske, the mythological Dane who sleeps beneath Kronborg Castle but who will awaken when needed.

Danish Americans get this. Everyone else, see ALT description.

I love this. And it reminds me of overhearing my boys playing checkers when they were little.

"I got triple-kinged!'
"And I've got infinite life!"

Three cheers for your ultimate goddess of the universe.

This woman speaks for the majority of Americans. 🙌🙏🫶👇

I was born elsewhere, but Minneapolis was where I grew up and I'm especially proud of it today!
