Mississippi Masala. Difficult choices as there are so many good movies. An underrated one was Much Ado about Nothing (I decided to go for some of his older and lesser known ones)

AprilG Xn+2 = Xn+1 + Xn @fibonaccigirlA print art project my youngest did at College in which they carved into the wood you see there and then used a steamroller to print it onto a large piece of paper. They're crazy talented.

From when they were founded. Their aim is to serve those in power (and specifically the white male power structure). 2016 is when a lot of the veneer was removed!

Between that and other car companies making better EVs, folks have their choice. Also the quality problems with the new Teslas add to it. I have only seen a couple of cyber trucks around here and chuckle every time 😂

J.Nasty Flaming Queer @JNastyJust so you know. Tesla’s, are currently called, Magamobile’s, for a reason. If you drive a Tesla it’s assumed you’re an asshole like Elon. The numbers would indicate Elon isn’t as popular as he thinks he is. 😂🤣 I hear you can buy one for literally half off here in the SF Bay Area.10:50 AM - May 11, 2024![Picture]()

Three years ago when my granddaughter was 7 months old she decided to #travel to the end of the hallway and peek into the
“off limits” room.
Apparently she was quite surprised at what she saw.

Senator Katie Britt's MOMS Act would
Create a fed'l database
To collect info on pregnant women
They say it'd be used for “outreach” to "resource centers"
But it's a TRACKING LIST
It is our worst nightmare
It is NOT what we want for our daughters
Time to get moving kids
We can't lose our rights!

My first (and unexpectedly only) big trip after retirement was to Canada's east coast with my bestie. We waffled about doing it by bus, but so glad we did. We experienced things we wouldn't have tried on our own and met some lovely people during our 14 days of #travel .

M Kaur @MkaurPSA for my non-Indian friends. It is mango season in India. Which means your neighborhood Indian store probably has some. Here are a few tips if you want to see what the fuss is about:
1. Find out when they get deliveries and buy on that day.
2. Exampine and ask for replacements if overripe.06:10 PM - May 09, 2024![GIF-Image]()
