ORSINO: O, when mine eyes did see Olivia first,
Methought she purged the air of pestilence.
That instant was I turned into a hart,
And my desires, like fell and cruel hounds,
E’er since pursue me.William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
Twelfth Night, Act 1, sc. 1, l. 20ff (1.1.20-24) (1601)More about this quote: wist.info/shakespeare-william/…

Ironic it was Saudi Arabia that was the source, including financing, personnel, and even training, behind 9/11 attack on the United States. Yet, despite that we have grown closer than ever to Saudi Arabia. They have even hired the President's SiL to invest their money, paying him $2B to do it.
Meanwhile, we bomb Iran.
This is about oil and money, and perfidy not democracy, or defending the United States, or protecting innocents, like the Girls' School we bombed. It makes no sense

@knittingknots2 We are headed into dark times for scientific research in the US. Every federal agency that funds #science is taking enormous budget cuts, loss of expertise, and reorganization that in a span of weeks is tearing down what took decades to build. I am more than astonished by the wanton, unthinkable destruction. #Gobsmacked

@obscurestar Totally agree! He has no facts about anything, just his usual routine! Why can’t they see who he really is? #gobsmacked

It's really hard for me to believe a normal, every day criminal from the #Trump organization would lie while under oath. I am #Gobsmacked ... not!

Trump's supposed "Super Duper Get Out of Jail Free" card was all just a hoax? #Gobsmacked 😉

Gobsmacked, adjective. Utterly astonished.

I’m #gobsmacked by how my #vision has deteriorated over the past year.
The need for #readers just so I can clip my fingernails is a real thing now. I remember when I was a kid, I was able to hold up money closely and focus on the little details. Now I can’t make out anything unless it’s at least two feet from my face.
Oh, and I have #astigmatism and things like lights have a halo around them now.
I was mostly OK losing half my hearing, but am having much more difficulty with my vision.

@scott I was *today* years old when I learned the true scope of "#jaywalking" in the US. #gobsmacked
