You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Oh no. Love and peaceful vibes to Trudy and her family.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Thanks for passing the news, Cass. {{{{{Trudy}}}}}

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Love and condolences to Trudy and her family. Thanks, Cass for letting us know.

And belated Birthday wishes to P. Tickybox.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Thanks for passing the word, Cass. Please give Trudy my condolences and love when you talk with her next.

Absolutely. Her family is all there together.

Ticky being 21 is unpossible. But she's brilliant so I'm glad she is all grown now.

The status is NOT quo.

Sending to much love to Trudy and her family. I know we say it over and over, but it’s still true: It’s always sudden.

I am in total denial that Tickybox could be 21.

Thrive to spite them

I got a new phone. My previous one kept forgetting it had a sim card and I would have to restart my phone. Which was annoying especially when I didn't realize for several hours and missed texts.

Yesterday I had to restart it 4 times just so it would recognize and I went to get a new one. I wasn't sure what I would get but I figured it would be a major step down. BUT I didn't have much balance left and I paid it off and there was a sale so I got a Samsung S25 Ultra for almost nothing .

Now I have to get used to Samsung again. I was frustrated with the Pixel for several reasons but the most recent update made a change to the flashlight that means you couldn't just turn it on and off by touching thr icon. It now gave the option for Done that closed the drop down but left it open or Off. Technically not an extra step but it was inconvenient.

I don't plan on changing phones for a long time after this
