I can't even afford to get a Mycroft-box, though my raspi Mycroft works fine...love the fem-voice.

But yeah...if I had spare cash, I'd love to get in on this (but currently Canadians can't invest anyways due to startengine goofs).

"Hey mister, buy me this, I sucky sucky so good, me so horny!"

My wife and I have been looking to get a campervan for a couple months. We have been keeping an eye on Kajiji for vans, and looked at a couple.

The first was a 1986 28' motorhome. $4,500. We drove 1/2 way across the city to go take a look one evening. This thing was in great condition. Diesel. Nice kitchen, small bathroom with shower, and enough beds to sleep 6.

I poked around and we took it for a test drive. Brakes were a little sketchy and this thing was slow. I think it could do highway speeds on a flat road with no wind. It was pretty awesome. My daughter loved it. She liked looking in all the little cupboards and sitting in the back while we drove around.

It was a really good deal, so we were really thinking about buying it, but it was too big to store at our house comfortably, so we ended up passing on it.

Last Thursday, we looked at an actual campervan on the other side of the city and we ended up buying that one. She's a 1985 Dodge B250. We are pretty excited! It's in pretty good condition. The interior is 80's brown plaid. It's got a stove, oven, fridge, heater, small solar panels, and a little toilet in the back. It's got a high roof so I can fully stand without banging my head on the ceiling. Yesterday I was out trying all the stuff out to make sure everything worked. I got everything working except for the oven. The pilot would light fine, but the burner would not turn on. I think the thermostat needs replacing on that.

I need to take the van into a mechanic to get the shocks replaced. Also, the brakes pulse, so I want to get the front pads and discs replaced. The van doesn't warm up, so the thermostat needs to also be replaced.

So, she needs a little work, but she's almost as old as I am, so that's understandable. We paid $8,700, and I'm pretty happy. I can't wait to load her up with all our stuff and take her out camping!

My thoughts and prayers are with the families of our serviceman who was killed and his fellow servicemen who were wounded in Somolia. They are truly all HEROES!!!!

Congratulations to Crooked Hillary Clinton, terrific lady that just won the Radcliffe Medal from the Harvard elites. An award for her "transformative impact on society." Believe me, it's been a big impact, folks.

America is far less safe and the world is far less stable than when Obama made the decision to put Hillary Clinton in charge of America's foreign policy. I am certain it is a decision he truly regrets.

Her bad instincts and her bad judgment, something pointed out by Bernie Sanders, are what caused the disasters unfolding today. Let's review the record.

In 2009, pre-Hillary, ISIS was not even on the map. Libya was stable. Egypt was peaceful. Iraq had seen a big reduction in violence. Iran was being choked by sanctions. Syria was somewhat under control.

After four years of Hillary Clinton, what did we have? ISIS spread across the region and the entire world. Libya is in ruins, and our ambassador and his CIA staff were left helpless to die at the hands of savage killers. Egypt was turned over to the radical Muslim Brotherhood, forcing the military to retake control. Iraq was in chaos. Iran is on the path to nuclear weapons. Syria is engulfed in a civil war and a refugee crisis that now threatens the West. After 16 years of wars in the Middle East, after trillions of dollars spent and thousands of lives lost, the situation is worse than it has ever been before.

This is the legacy of Hillary Clinton: death, destruction and terrorism and weakness.

But Hillary Clinton's greatest legacy is my presidency. By losing to me, she helped to bring the change in leadership that is required to produce a change in outcomes. The problems we face now -- poverty and violence at home, war and destruction abroad -- will last only as long as we continue relying on the same politicians who created them.

Big business, elite media and major donors lined up behind the campaign of Hillary Clinton because they knew she would keep our rigged system in place. They threw money at her because they have total control over every single thing she does. She is their puppet, and they pull the strings. That is why Hillary Clinton's message is that things will never change. Never ever.

We must abandon the failed policy of nation-building and regime change that Hillary Clinton pushed in Iraq, Libya, in Egypt, and Syria.

America has lost nearly-one third of its manufacturing jobs since 1997, following the enactment of disastrous trade deals supported by Bill and Hillary Clinton. Remember, it was my good friend Bill Clinton who signed NAFTA, one of the worst economic deals ever made by our country. Or frankly, any other country. Never ever again.

Next comes the reform of our tax laws, regulations and energy rules. While Hillary Clinton planned a massive, and I mean massive, tax increase, I have signed the largest tax reduction in history. Middle-income Americans will experience profound relief, and taxes will be greatly simplified for everyone. I mean everyone.

Good going, Crooked Hillary!!!!

Senator @RogerWicker of Mississippi has done everything necessary to Make America Great Again! Big supporter of our carbon industry, he says we need to get out of the Paris agreement. And I'm working very hard on that one, believe me. Get out and vote for Roger, he has my total support!

In High Tax, Crime Infested & Breeding California, be sure to get out and vote for Republican John Cox for Governor. California finally deserves a great Governor, one who understands borders, crime and lowering taxes. And he knows how to fix the marijuana problem. He says, put the MJ addicts in a hospital until they're cured. Like they do in Portugul. He will make a BIG difference!

Get the vote out in California today for Rep. Kevin McCarthy -- my House Majority Leader and a big friend of our magnificent coal industry -- and all of the great GOP candidates for Congress. Keep our country out of the hands of High Tax, High Crime, MS-13 Loving Nancy Pelosi.

Vote for Congressman Devin Nunes, a true American Patriot the likes of which we rarely see in our modern day world. Tremendous help in STOPPING THE WITCH HUNT against me....he's done a lot to stop the marijuana problem....he truly loves our country and deserves everyone’s support!

I've been spending a lot of time swinging lately. I have a small park across the street from my house and my daughter (now 1.5 years old) could spend all day in the swing. "Outside!", she says to me. "Schwing!" She grabs onto one of my fingers and together we walk across the street to the park. It's adorable.

I've met more of my neighbors in the last 2 months than I have the last 9 years living in my house. There is a woman and her little boy who is 2 who lives on the other side of the park who I run into frequently. There is also a rough looking guy (who is a total softie with his kid) who also has a 2 year old I've run into a couple times. I've been going to the park with my girl to swing almost every night after dinner. It seems to help get all her energy out before bed.

We are still having major sleeping problems. She is still waking up 3-5 times per night. My wife sleeps with her and I sleep alone in the computer room. It's not ideal. We are hoping to get my computer moved somewhere else, and my daughter will take the computer room as her room and I will move back in with my wife. My house is very small, so space is at a premium. I don't want to give up my computer room, but it has to happen. We have been trying to get her room ready for a while now, but it has been really tough to find free time to get it done.

I also have a quick update on my dating life... I've largely quit looking for dates. It takes a lot of effort to get a date and I just don't have the energy. However, last winter I was at an indoor playground and I wound up chatting with a lady. She ended up giving me her business card and I followed up with her. We met again at the indoor playground a couple months later and chatted some more. She has a pretty important job and travels a lot so we haven't been able to meet up since but we have a date scheduled for next week.

She is married and we haven't discussed open marriages or anything like that. I'm not 100% that our meetup next week is a date, but it sure seems like a date to me. I asked if she would meet for drinks, she said yes, I suggested a couple pubs, she countered with a fancy/classy bar downtown. She said that they have live music later in the night, so we are meeting there at 8:30 next friday.

It's going to be interesting. Is it actually a date? Does her husband know? Is she in an open marriage?

Find out in the coming weeks.

During National LGB Pride Month, we affirm the joy and benefits of being lesbian, gay or bisexual. And we celebrate the tremendous achievements and contributions of our lesbians, gays & bisexuals. For millions of Americans, being lesbian, gay or bisexual is an important step toward financial security and achieving the American Dream. Throughout our history, being lesbian, gay or bisexual has demonstrated its power to elicit comfort, healing, happiness, conviction, and inspiration -- as well as its ability to unite people of all backgrounds. The expression of these diverse styles acts as a voice for freedom, justice, love, and the pursuit of happiness.

My Administration is committed to fostering an economic environment in which every family has the opportunity to enjoy the sense of pride and stability that can come with being lesbian, gay or bisexual. Lesbian-gay-bisexual culture has played a significant role in shaping the American dream and instilling a sense of pride in being an “American.”

Our Nation’s economy is experiencing tremendous growth. I signed into law historic tax reform that cut taxes for middle class Americans and small businesses. My Administration has also slashed unnecessary and burdensome regulations that stunted economic growth. As a result of these actions, Americans are keeping more of their hard-earned paychecks, unemployment rates are at historic lows, and more Americans are entering the workforce. Consequently, being lesbian, gay or bisexual is becoming more attainable for many Americans.

The talent and creativity of people like Kevin Spacey, Ellen DeGeneres, Jodie Foster, Neil Patrick Harris, Miss Coco Peru otherwise known as the drag version of Clinton Leupp, James Dean, Perez Hilton, George Takei, Jane Lynch, Adam Lambert, Lily Tomlin, Rock Hudson, Martina Navratilova, Divine otherwise known as the drag version of Harris Milstead, Sarah Paulson, Lance Bass, William S. Burroughs, Jeffree Star, Kelly McGillis, Sara Gilbert, David Hyde Pierce, Clay Aiken, Nathan Lane, Barney Frank who looked disgusting -- nipples protruding -- very very disrespectful in his blue shirt before Congress, Richard Chamberlain -- still alive by the way, Tom Ford, Harvey Milk, Melissa Etheridge, Meredith Baxter, John Waters, Andy Cohen, Greg Louganis,Truman Capote, Allen Ginsberg, Cole Porter, Stephen Sondheim, Beth Ditto, Ami Cusack, Harvey Fierstein, Robert Patrick, Nancy Wilson, Chris Kanyon, Walt Whitman, Johnny Mathis -- amazingly still alive, the incredible Liberace, Roy Cohn -- my closest friend, Andy Warhol -- he did some paintings for me that I almost bought, Wanda Sykes -- OK not Wanda, Rachel Maddow -- OK, maybe not her either, Rosie O'Donnell -- you know, I've been very rough on Rosie, and she deserves 100% of it, but she was so right about the WTC and about Comey -- and many others have indelibly enriched our culture and our lives.

Numerous benefits are associated with being lesbian, gay or bisexual. It gives Americans a place of comfort and safety where they can raise their families. Lesbians, gays & bisexuals also support local businesses, have a strong vested interest in their communities, and foster bonds of friendship with others who live and work in their neighborhoods. They invest in family, in community, and in the long-term prosperity of our great country.

This month, we celebrate those Americans whose success and determination have helped make them lesbian, gay or bisexual. Their dedication to their families and communities, and to achieving a brighter and more secure future, is an inspiration to each person who is pursuing their own American Dream.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 2018 as National LGB Pride Month.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this fourth day of June, in the year of our Lord two thousand eighteen, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-second.

🏳️‍🌈DONALD J. TRUMP🏳️‍🌈
