Will add to my ‘to buy’ list. How Judy the Great’s books supported me, supported all of us who read them.

I’m so sorry to read this news. Children deserve books full of knowledge and the beauty of illustrations.
I hope you receive better news soon.

I have two large berry bushes either side of the front door and saw, this morning, a Queen Bee 🐝 buzzing around them.
I smiled. Last year, the butterflies around the wildflowers had me pulling up a seat to watch them flitting about. What beauty there is when we look for it. 🦋

Timeline cleanser. Take a breath in for four then exhale for four. Then, go about your day. 🫶

“At 6:32 this evening, we learned that the horrifying announcement of the morning was, indeed, cover for Trump to declare victory and get out of the crisis he has caused in the Middle East.”

@hcrichardson.bsky.social Historian Heather Cox Richardson’s Tuesday chat is sure to be interesting today.
Starting in a few minutes on YT and FB.

Hi Heather, thanks so much for spending 14+ hrs per day writing for all of us. It’s so funny that you replied just as I was chatting with my mum (who also reads you) asking, has it been six or seven years… lol.
Delighted to see your books return to their rightful place as your background! Enjoy 📱📳.

How a good politician communicates…

My first read every morning for the past six years, or is it seven?

Keep in mind that Trump's threats communicated in his tweets are themselves war crimes.

All Republican members of Congress, no matter what other good and bad things they've done in their lives, will be remembered for choosing party over country and keeping this guy in office when it's clear that he's 100% unfit for office.

Republican congressional leaders: Whatever he may or may not have on y'all, there's no way it's worth risking a nuclear war.

Oh for goodness sakes, he’s back at the podium…

Today’s ramble from the US Repeater in Chief:

Boom boom boom
Amazing
Very historic
Rifles
Soft wet sand
Old planes
Contingency
Seconds…can be miles away
Geniuses… the talent
Epic Fury
200 warriors
Jolly Green
Bullets
Farm
Very small space

The entire mess could have been spoken in 90 seconds.

This is an illuminating read.

Beautiful.

I was wondering…😂😇

Absolutely, I would enjoy a chat with him, especially in a garden with the dogs around wanting crumbs of scones. He always seems like such a nice man, who has had some hard times but retained his kindness.
Better go and read the article.

And Russia is losing.

It could've been over by now if the US had kept its agreements and Europe had stepped up more sooner.

Trump and Hegseth halted funding for research to get blood to wounded U.S. Marines and U.S. Navy sailors:

"When someone is wounded and survival depends on the availability of blood, this software would have made that survival more likely. Now it will not."
