I don’t mean to brag but my TV is set to record Jimmy Kimmel tonight.

Last night, Poland recorded as many as 19 airspace violations by Russian drones coming from Belarus. Polish and NATO troops were forced to engage Russian targets over NATO territory. If NATO doesn’t set clear boundaries here, these probing missions by Russia won’t stop.

Correction, 24 drones, remains of 8 found so far.

8 Shahed drones sent by Russia to Poland in an overnight attack. A total of 19 airspace violations. Putin is testing to see what NATO will do. NATO will do nothing. Putin will proceed.

There was a serious violation of Polish airspace by Russian drones.

I declared today a self-care day. So far I sent my husband out to play golf, called everyone on the phone instead of texting, did my laundry, organized pantry, read a real book, and changed sheets. I also spent an hour watching my dogs chase birds. Now we are doing this.

Russia bombarded the Ukrainian capital with drones and missiles early Thursday, including a rare strike in the city center, killing at least 15 people and wounding 48, local authorities said.

Putting a 10 year old on tv to talk about his friend being shot at school is a different level of diabolical.

DO NOT PUT CHILDREN ON TV TALKING ABOUT A SHOOTING THEY JUST LIVED THROUGH The media who do this are heartless bastards

Dear European leaders, thoughts and prayers and expressions of outrage don’t accomplish much against Russian missiles.

The Buccaneers is surprisingly good. Like the slightly more diverse and dramatic Bridgerton.

“Marketed as conversational agents, chatbots are becoming de facto digital therapists for many teens, for whom this technology now feels native. This raises the stakes for ensuring these tools are safe and governed by enforceable standards,” writes Ryan K. McBain.

Russian troops launched ten strikes on Kostyantynivka today. One person may be trapped under the rubble. An educational institution and an administrative building were destroyed, 12 apartment buildings damaged.

Putin shows 0 intent to stop the war. He is using this time of increased trust from the U.S. to kill more Ukrainians, parade on camera, and gloat.

Russia does this for many reasons, but one of them is to show that Putin owns Trump. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/18/u...

A very important thing to know about this morning’s Russian attack on an apartment building in Kharkiv is that it was hit by several drones, not just one. Several drones, coming from different sides. This was a deliberate, calculated murder of civilians as they slept in their beds.

⚡ Russian forces launched another attack against Ukraine. 270 drones and 10 missiles were deployed. Administrative buildings of energy sector enterprises were damaged. No casualties were reported, according to local authorities.

The Russians attacked Kremenchuk and Lubny with missiles last night they did it while Zelensky was in White House with European leaders and Trump, negotiating a possible outcome out of the war Russia started that's how Russia respects Trump and wants to end the war #UkrainianView

Meetings matter nothing to me until bombs stop falling on Ukraine and drones stop shooting.

⚡️ Russian strikes killed 21, injured 99 in Ukraine since Trump-Putin summit. Five people were killed and 11 injured on Aug. 17, followed by eight killed and 35 injured on Aug. 18, and at least eight killed and 53 injured on Aug. 19.

Horrible www.bbc.com/news/article...

As far as I can tell nothing got accomplished toward stopping Russia from killing Ukrainians and two bombers just took off from Russia toward Ukraine so I’m thrilled European leaders enjoyed themselves so much today.

As a Jew I am deeply ashamed of what Israel is doing in Gaza. Jews heal and care about the world, we don’t starve children and destroy the world.

People on FB: I am sure that none of my friends have ever been outside and have never eaten food so let me share with you what it’s like to see a tree and eat food in 45 photos.

These are from a Dallas hospital, but my hospital in San Antonio is working on something similar. It will happen by next week. The goal is free mental health services for any family affected, period.

Texas folks pass along. Free mental health services for families affected by floods.

Close the sky over Ukraine. Long, long overdue. "Ukraine hit by major attack as Trump says Putin won't 'stop' Russia attacked Ukraine with 550 drones and missiles" www.dw.com/en/ukraine-h...

I was wrong. This was a real alert for Kerrville. I am that close to the area. We are just overwhelmed.

UPDATED: At least 78 people are dead following flooding that slammed central Texas over the weekend, while a desperate search for 11 missing from a camp for girls continues.

I was wrong. It is raining and flooding again.

I think they are testing something new.

Things are a little on edge with the warnings near Kerrville, folks. I just got this super loud warning on my phone. I am not near a river. I am at H‑E‑B parking lot and there is no rain.

UPDATE: The official death toll jumped to 43 following the catastrophic floods that hit the Texas Hill Country as of Saturday evening, local officials announced during a news conference.

I am not a scientist but we basically have a tropical storm sitting over some large rivers for a month in a 100-year flood zone. Flood warnings have been going out every day for a while. We knew something awful was coming. I had no idea there were unprotected children in cabins on the river bank.
