Linkety Dinkety Doo: Points to consider while I'm in line at the polls

I am taking Lil E with me to our new voting place today. They won't recognize us there, as they always did in gym of the Catholic school across from our old apartment. But that's OK. Lil E's convinced he's voting too, so I will bring him a special Sharpie and homemade ballot of his own to keep him occupied and happy and well-prepared for (oh my) the 2022 elections.

While we step out to step in line, won't you catch up on some of my favorite reading of the week? I promise to swipe a few stale donuts and weak coffee so we can sit and chat when I get back.

Oh, Stefania, thank you. You said a whole world, a big hope, in only a few paragraphs. Plus, you made me cry during an election that has mostly made me rant.

Oh, Tracy, I know. I turned down lots of offers to flaunt my boobs during the 18 months (yes, EIGHTEEN) I breastfed too. OK, so none of them was a major box office production (some grrrls are meant for much lower budgets, I guess), but still, I hear you (ummm) knocking.

Oh, David, I get it. Trying to be grounded, especially for yourself and by yourself, is a long, exhausting and invigorating journey. Here's to walking our talk.

Oh, Rachel, you ask the best questions. This one is about how we tangle emotions up in our bedsheets and if intimacy is possible without sex. Oh la la. What to say about that? Ideally, yes but realistically, no?
