Be A Wonder Warrior - Even If Part-Time

Be a Wonder Warrior - even if Part-Time.

What is a Wonder Warrior?

Well it started at a BBQ when I refused to share BOTH of my bracelets at any one time.  The person I gave one to said "I'll be a part-time Wonder Warrior then."  After giggles, we all looked at each other and thought the same thing "We already are."

A Wonder Warrior is;

• Honest
• Loyal
• Accepting
• Non-threatening
• Stands up to Hate
• Is there however and whenever for their friends
• Is loving
• Accepts the truth, even if it is uncomfortable
• Embraces Peace

Yes,  it is fun to see a half-drunk, sweaty, puffy me in WW bracelets, but I really did buy them for more than the fun.  I am a Wonder Warrior.  I will not lie down in the approach of hate, or, shirk from helping others simply because it is uncomfortable or time consuming.

Be a Wonder Warrior in your own life.

Truly.

We need more Wonder Warriors - even if Part-Time.

Blessings and my support to each and every one of you.

Shalom.

Mayor Out After Racist FLOTUS Post

Bye Biatch!

*reprinted from CNN

(CNN)The mayor of Clay, West Virginia, has resigned and another county official is out following their exchange over a racist Facebook post that compared first lady Michelle Obama to an "ape in heels."

The county employee, Pamela Taylor, worked as director of the Clay County Development Corporation and wrote on Facebook: "It will be so refreshing to have a classy, beautiful, dignified First Lady back in the White House. I'm tired of seeing a (sic) Ape in heels," according to a screengrab obtained by CNN affiliate WSAZ.

A screengrab of a Facebook post purportedly from county employee Pamela Taylor.

Mayor Beverly Whaling commented on the post saying: "Just made my day Pam," the screengrab shows.

 

Clay County Commissioner Greg Fitzwater confirmed to CNN that Whaling resigned, but did not know if Taylor was terminated or resigned her post. But he said that she was no longer working for the county.
 

CNN has attempted to reach both Whaling and Taylor for comment and have not heard back.

Alex Danvers Is Gay

Supergirl season 2 is going in very interesting directions.

I don't like The Guardian concept, but Supergirls sister becoming gay was a beautifully written realisation over several episodes.

Glad to see this handled so well on TV.

Oh - and her potential girlfriend is not white.  Thank goodness.

The Beauty of Bears

I love being a bear and being part of the bear community.

I have always found that in the bear community there is a lot more fun, smiles, friendliness and acceptance.  Not always.  But mostly.

And they always have a good time.  I like that.

Hat tip to my bear brothers.

Matt Smith - The Crown

My latest tv bingefest is Netflixs' "The Crown" - the story behind the life and accession of Queen Elizabeth the second and her husband Phillip - Duke of Edinburgh.

Matt Smith - Dr Who - Plays the Duke of Edinburgh and he does an amazing job at capturing the bitterness, crassness, and flat out wantonness that is the DoE.

I am loving this show that took 100Mpounds to shoot 10 episodes.

Watch it.  It's well worth it.

OH! - and you see his bum.  Several times.

These are the facts;

America is much more racist, more sexist, more hate filled than we even suspected.

I am in shock.

The next 4 years WILL be a nightmare.

For anyone who voted third party, you should be ashamed.

Wonder Woman Film.... LOOK AT THIS!

OMG.........and to think that I was sceptical about Gal Gadot taking on the Tiara.

But she has really made it her own whilst also respecting that which came before her.

I can not wait for this.

WONDERFUL!

The New Wonder Woman Trailer Is Here

And it got me excited about something for the first time in a while.  Which is good.

EVERYTHING that Diana/WW should be is in this film.

Look at this image.

This is implacable WW.  This is the warrior.  But this is actually also the Wonder Woman of principles and defender of innocents.

This movie is going to be HUGE.

Enjoy the new trailer.  And wait for the sass that is Etta Candy at the end.

PS I love the guitar riff.

PPS I am glad they let Gal Gadot keep her Israeli accent.

A Cry. A Talk. A Friend.

I was very fortunate that someone special had a long talk with you. 
It contained some truths that I was avoiding.
It wasn't an easy conversation but it had to happen.

I have work to do.
I have things I need to consider.

This person was there for my best interests and spoke to me with love and support.

I have thinking to do.  And I have things I need to get done.

It isn't always easy hearing from someone looking from the outside in, but it can be enlightening, and necessary.

I am grateful.

It's interesting how differently your outlook can change in 24 hours.

I Am So Alone

I feel like there is no one I can talk to, confide in, cry with.

I feel I am in freefall and there is nothing to land on but sharp rocks and ice.

I have never felt like this.
