Celebrating Tolkien's birthday by walking from DC to Denver to return some jewelry.
1 month in, 500 miles trudged. Awoke in hidden vale of Dollywood -- have slipped in and out of consciousness since that bad business at the Weathertop bar in Lynchburg.

Hot dude mops my brow. "Are you ... an elf-friend?" he asks.

"Oh gurl we don't call ourselves that anymore."
"What happened to you, darlin'?" he asks, in the Common Speech, though inflected with the soothing drawl of his people.

"I think someone spiked my drink," I say. "Back in Lynchburg. At Weathertop."

"Ah know that place," he says. "We call it Weathered Tops." Giggles.

For an upcoming PCHH we're revisiting some of our old opinions on stuff we've discussed, to talk about what we've since come around on/now value less.

Thing is: I've scrolled through the archives, and I honestly can't come up with something I've changed my mind about ...
... besides FROZEN, sort of, and we've already talked about that.

So have it: What have I gotten wrong? What made you want to scream at me in the car/on the train/while walking the dogs?

(No, I'm not changing my mind about MARY POPPINS RETURNS, so that's off the table.)
(Maybe I will someday! When my blood sugar's so low I need to chug a liter or 6 of cinematic Mountain Dew! BUT NOT THIS DAY!)

There are three straight dudes tossin’ the ol’ pigskin around on the beach and one of them has a normal human body but the other two have 3 percent body fat gymnast V backs I call them sean and cody
Sean and Cody can’t throw for shit but the normal dude - let’s call him the least gay-porny name possible ... maybe ... Bob? ... fires the ball like it’s a cannon and catches their wobbly-ass tosses by like diving into the sand
Sean just called Cody “bro” and remarked on his abs (which ARE remarkable) and I know how this scene ends I’ve seen it many times oh poor Bob let Bob do craft services or whatever

#Christmas is a day of remembrance and strengthening family bonds. The border wall behind me cuts those bonds. It disintegrates families seeking inalienable dignity.

It is a monument to bigotry, a piece of physical xenophobia.
The picture is from my trip to Tijuana in August when I spent a few days advising asylum seekers. I am standing on the Mexican side, but technically inside the US.

Here, hope and despair run feverishly as two turbulent rivers, each vying for victory in these roaring rapids.
Tonight, entire families hunker down in a tent city not a hundred yards from where this picture was taken, their futures deliberately made cruelly uncertain, and still our government throws up more walls of bureaucracy designed to break the spirit under a huge "closed" sign.

Ok folks it's time:
It's the Feast Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe and I've got the moment.
Let's yell about Mary.
Let's start here: I'm a protestant. So my understanding of Mary, to the extent that I have one, is shaped by that.
And HEY PROTESTANTS: YOU'RE MISSING OUT BIGTIME BY BEING SO DANG DODGY OF MARY.
In A WHOLE DANG LOT of Christian churches, Mary has been reduced to:
- a prop in the nativity set
- a lesson in Women's Biblical Obedience (TM) ((shudder))
- an empty vessel of little consequences
- one line in Silent Night
- a dramatic rendition of the song Mary Did You Know?

This amazing rendition of Silent Night by the local high school choir is a reminder and a tribute to victims of #GunViolence #HateCrime and so much more. Please listen to the whole thing and focus on what is said in between.

If you love it, please RT

#peace #hope and #love.
I am unable to load the whole video but did the most beautiful part with the kids lighting the candle.
Rest of the video.

One of my Christmas favorites... Enjoy. 🎄
Another favorite, with many renditions, here is a nice one. The song in itself is beautiful, no need to diva it up (my issue with some renditions)
When performed well, the 'fall to your knees' part gives me goosebumps!
Very nice acapella of silent night. I've always loved this song in many version.

California THINK...as I Keep Saying Gavin Newsome is Jerry Brown on Steroids. We have to save California from the Filth and Perverts
of the Democrat Party. Remember they actually had a Slush Fund to pay off there Victims, so my advice #VoteRed throughout the Nation
I believe there are millions of Americans who haven't voted in a long time are going to do the same. It will be like years ago when we told our friends oh yeah voting for Carter but went in the booth & voted Reagan in. Democrats were shell shocked then & we can do it again 😎👍
Just talked to my brother in law (also here in #California)
HE HAS VOTED in 30+ YEARS until NOW.
He will be voting Republican Straight Across the Board this November.
He is so mad at Democrats ☠ he calls them 😟 well never mind you get the point... #RedWaveRising

There is so much ugliness in the world. The #Hivites are not only working as hard as they can to create as much chaos & negativity in the world as possible, they are also contributing to that swell of negativity with their own DREAD & HATE. I refuse to contribute to that feeling.
There is going to be ugliness & violence, probably more frequently, as the stakes get higher & the #Hivites continue losing ground. I know there is so much bad news to report, & everyone is angry & wanting justice. The DEMAND for justice is palpable. And it is good. But...
Truly, the very BEST thing #WeThePeople can do is counter-BALANCE this negativity with LOVE. With COMPASSION. With honest recognition of truth & firm, unwavering enforcement of reasonable BOUNDARIES. How would you speak to a 4 year old? Do that with these bad actors. Because...
