My father passed away early this morning. He was closing in on 103, the oldest Grant in an extended ancestry to live this long. This photo was taken in his early 80s.
God speed, Dad. You're in your real home now. Dance to your heart's content. This is not good-bye. Lorraine

I went to buy a car, told the sales people hubs had dementia. They still talked to him. After three visits I selected a car, said I would be paying, and title goes to me. They put his name as primary, me second. I was spitting mad.
@ChristianWalk1r
Young man, law states that your father has to step down from his position on the presidential council because he is now a senatorial candidate. He cannot do both simultaneously. That he is Republican has nothing to do with the rule of law, only that he is required to follow it.
@nathaliejacoby1
The video is scary. He went after two teenage girls verbally and physically. This behavior is unacceptable and should be stopped in its tracks. Kudos to the girls and the police for taking action.

My best friend has Graves’ disease, some sort of eye infection that won’t clear up, and desperately needs cataract surgery. The prescription protocol she’s been on was abruptly removed so that it could go to Covid active patients. They told her she may lose her sight. Not right!!
@MJMcKean
Michael, sending love amidst the condolences. So sorry you lost your dear friend Peter. He made me smile and laugh so many times on Bosom Buddies! I hope you shared many, many amazing experiences to remember him by. Take care. Lorraine

Because he asked for help with the name of a specific British character; your I am wounded attitude and subject matter are misplaced in this post.
Women of the World (you are my WOW factor!): When a man insults you in a tweet, he gets off on receiving a hurt or angry response from you. Silence brings up his insecurities. Let’s retweet this all week!

Senator Warnock is Seat 51. We need his Democratic presence to pass legislation by and for the People, not be blocked for the benefit of big Republican money. Now we know just how vital Seat 51 is to righting our democracy and freedoms, please support Sen. Warnock.

My FIL transitioned in August, 1988. My husband, his sister and her husband were in the hall. I whispered into his ear, “Pa, you have permission to let go, to begin your new life. To meet your soul family, and receive all the knowledge you sought on this earth.” The Pastor left.

This is an image of Howard Hesseman on WKRP in Cincinnati. They look like eight tracks to me, but then I would not have known the difference except I knew it wasn’t a cassette.
@johnpavlovitz
Making fun of a woman’s alopecia is cool to you? Did you see her reaction? Chris Rock’s comment was cruel and insensitive; and unprofessional. I do not condone violence; both men should have known better. What happened, happened. They’re taking care of it.

When TFG’s Secret Service put him in the car rather than allow him to walk on J6 to the Capitol building, I believe they prevented the overthrow of the government. Instead despite physical blows from Trump, they drove him to the White House. So, they knew.

She misses the woman she loved who took care of her. Give her extra cuddles or pets. She feels displaced and probably doesn’t understand why she’s there or what happened to her human. This takes time to transition.

Then, please be equally considerate of women who ask you why you are asking. We no longer feel safe with healthcare professionals.

Tom Jones hosted a weekly variety show in the 60s. At the end of the show during his last song, he strutted onto the catwalk and every hormone in a female’s body went berserk — he wasn’t wearing underwear, and the light shone thru his tux pants right at the bulge. We ALL knew.

If the kids don’t take back their classrooms, these Q anon sub plants will continue to push sick ideologies on your child. The kids are right to stop this behavior before it becomes unassailable.

No we’d only been married a few months when he took my car and sold it. Title in my name only. He didn’t have dementia then but was a major narcissist. Dementia came much later.
@zarahti
@kristabellerina
Yep. I brought an almost new car into the marriage. On a Saturday my husband went with his son to a dealership and sold my car, leaving me a 33 mile each way commute with no car. He kept the money too. My stepson thought that was hilarious.

I am confused by the very dark spray tanning. None of you are that dark naturally. When I have seen you unretouched color wise, I think you look so much better.I mean more natural, more beautiful.
@nathaliejacoby1
Yes; efficacy ratio is higher at six months with Moderna, I think around 64% (don’t quote me, this is from memory) versus Pfizer, at 42%. I will be getting the booster (either will do) as soon as it’s offered because I fall within the immune-compromised older hot woman group. :)

You don’t unless they are in your face about it. Your beliefs and experiences are yours. Theirs belong to them. Without personal knowledge based upon experience, accept your differences and move on.
Well, I had an enjoyable 2-1/2 hour sleep! Looks like everyone’s been busy with great guesses. It is a water lily root, or rhizome. The one pictured is mature and of good size.

So are Harry and Meghan, their lives splayed out by trash “news” with little thought to the truth. Harry was ready to bolt the Corporation years ago. Meeting the love of his life spurred him to protect her and their son.
Called my dad and shared a 3-sentence joke. He turns 101 Sunday. The joke was to gauge his ongoing memory loss. He would have loved to remember it, but they mostly escape his understanding now. To any of you going through this with a family member, be tolerant; I feel for you.
This afternoon my Twitter account was suspended for seven days. I appealed. A few hours later they restored my account with an apology. I will continue to fight for our freedom and democracy.

Newsom remains unflappable and calm, providing historically provable facts while Hannity spouts nonsense, and attempts to override Newson and drown him out. Congrat's, Governor Newsom. More of the same crap, Sean Hannity. You are overruled.
@davidmweissman
My understanding of this scenario is, the angry man was defending a black vendor the cops were harassing. The man lost his cool and chased them away. All on video. If the cops had continued to go after the black vendor, wouldn’t your response be different?
@GHOSTofSURF
Place blame where it belongs: The Saudis. This time of year they again restricted oil to the U.S. to support the Republicans and make Joe Biden look bad. Been going on a long, long time.
@TG22110
Think of the hundreds of millions of dollars he raised for each company. He keeps that money. I doubt he cares whether he has to work at running a company. He works at raising the funds he knows he’ll never pay back.

The minimum wage of $7.25/hour was set in 2009. Take out 20% for taxes, minimum wage is $5.80/hour. NO ONE can live on that little.
@ElieNYC
It is payback. Cold-blooded are MAGA grifting, lying, ignoring constituent suffering and death in a pandemic, refusing aid, letting women and children die, being paid hundreds of millions from the NRA that receives oligarch funds to pay Republicans on the take for themselves.
@MJMcKean
Jon-Erik Hexum shot himself on set, thinking a blank wouldn’t hurt him. I think in the current instance, the blank rounds were incorrectly loaded. A tragedy nonetheless.
@JoeNewberry
I had a mostly upbeat day; swallowed hard when I wished my father a happy 101st birthday and he hung up on me. Swallowed harder when my brother, a staunch Republican, baited me and then hung up. Other than that, convos with long-time close friends warmed my heart. Much laughter.

My father asks me every week how much I weigh. He’s 101. He was asking me that when I was in my 20s and now I’m in my 70s. It still isn’t funny and I finally told him to fuck off.

Nothing gets past aqua net. If you’ve had the shots you’re protected from the variants as long as it has been two to three weeks’ time since second injection.
Yesterday marked 15 years since my husband’s passing. Rather than observe yesterday, this morning I choose to celebrate the first day of the rest of my life. I am happy, self-directed, healed. Life is good. My life goals are on track. See you on the bright side.
Good morning to my friends and fellow tweeters. Wishing each of you a happy and joy-filled celebration of which ever holiday you observe this month. Here is a photo of my husband and me taken in the 1980s on a cruise. This is my Christmas red dress photo.
@poppygibsonuk
Take a gander at these two diverse gentlemen. This is one of my all-time favorite photos! Our lives are all about costumes showing who we are, or want to be. Mad respect to these men!

Repubs who don’t do the work for their states: I too wish there was a “karma clause” for such behavior. Voters might learn that their political leaders cause consequences when they vote against their own constituents’ needs.
#KarmaClause
@DukeHomer
When one person is so filled with love and kindness and generosity that he or she gives all the time, the other person won’t. This does not negate who you are. It negates who the other person could be. Reserve part of your goodness; let the other person prove himself too.

She still won an award, and that should not have been allowed to happen. The girl should have been disqualified from all events for the season. They don't learn when they are rewarded for ugly behavior.

A tweet earlier posted than yours from a store employee explained that the guy assaulted an employee. Guy doesn't stand a chance in court. It was self defense.

My niece & her daughters keep trying to gain access to my 100 YO blind father’s house, He’s said no because they are unvaccinated & thieves. Wait till they learn I talked him in to that. He is more important than people who would hurt him again.
@JoeNewberry
My father, Frank Grant. Joined RCAF, became flight instructor, traveled to European Corridor, could bush-fix anything. Commanded a team of bombers in Great Britain. He will turn 101 on March 6, 2022. We hope he makes it, he is already the oldest in our known Grant family history.
