Four Walls @FourWalls (86583) • United States 6 Jul 22

Past, Present, Future

DragonflytotheMoon @GypsyButterfly (295) • Ukiah, California 16 Apr 21

Though I enjoy history, I'm not that interested in my own past. I'm not one to dwell on it. Good or bad. There are some moments I might reflect on, from time to time. I take each day as it comes (sometimes that's all you can do)....

'Old news' appearing on Facebook as current

Judy Evans @JudyEv (381837) • Rockingham, Australia 21 Jun 20

The photo has nothing to do with the post. This doe was feeding outside our window this morning but you can see she has spotted me. The next instant, she was gone. What I wanted to share was this: I’m not on Facebook but Vince...

President Trump Said What?

redhotpogo @redhotpogo (4398) • United States 7 Jun 18

Let me just start off by stating that I really don't care what your opinions about President Trump are. In fact I can guarantee most of the people running around the net talking about him have no clue what they are talking about....

So everyone by now has probably heard the latest news about the 30 year old "millennial" that got kicked out of his parents house. I've heard the parents side that he was a self entitled loser, who refused to leave. And I've...

Hayleigh Elizabeth @HaleighElizabeth (70) • Windsor Mill, Maryland 12 Aug 16

I've never really had an interest in the Summer Olympics, it's just not my thing. But since it's been the only topic on basic TV channels and we refuse to pay for cable, I've had to follow the U.S. swimming and gymnastics. My...

Sometimes something will happen that gets a line from a song running through my mind. Not the entire song, just a line or two from it. The insanity that we've endured this year brought to mind a song by the incredibly...
