The Current Situation The Good Fight

Happy International Women’s Day 2024!

From the International Women’s Day site:

Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that’s diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can forge women’s equality. Collectively we can all .

Celebrate women’s achievement. Raise awareness about discrimination. Take action to drive gender parity.
IWD belongs to everyone, everywhere. Inclusion means all IWD action is valid.

Nine years ago today…

This is still one of my favorite pics from the wedding, which I like to call the “Elvis Movie Poster.”

Happy anniversary, Anitra!

Thanks to Tracy Ingram for the find!

Happy Leap Day!

Comic panel featuring skeleton having cereal and coffee saying “What a year, huh?” and a cat replying “It’s February.”

It’s the last day of February — and a bonus day at that — so it’s the last day this image can be considered “current.”

It’s been an interesting year, where I’ve enjoyed some sights, seen family I don’t often see, and earlier this month, I got laid off. That’s a lot, considering we’re only one-sixth of the way through the Gregorian calendar, and one-twelfth of the way through the Year of the Dragon!

The next few months promise to be even more interesting, and I’m looking forward to taking them on.
