The son of a friend of my brother and SIL started this apparel company with Minnesota-based designs, and they are great! This one reminded me of life at your cabin, @violanorth.bsky.social.

Y’all. I saw a Cybertruck in the parking lot at church today. I’m not sure who in the congregation is risking the wrath of God like that, but it also says a lot about where we live. 👀😱🫣

If you love fireflies and live where they do, there are a few things you can do to help them. Don't use pesticides in your yard, leave some long grass (edges, a patch), and leave some leaves in the fall. This will help them, all the other bugs in your yard, and the birds that rely on them for food.

No other nation has ever prosecuted a former leader, except for about half of them, so you can see why this is so outrageous.

One of the things I love about @courtneymilan.com’s newsletter is it gives me a little break in the middle of the work week, and delightful little rabbit trails to follow down. Like today, when I was looking at adorable travel tea sets that I do not need. But they are so cute! And reasonably priced!

It's a scandal that abortion funds can't raise the funds needed to help people seeking abortions now, this minute, across the country. An absolute SCANDAL and truly we ought to be ashamed that this is happening when each of us could be doing something to support these funds.

Anyway, bought a comic called ‘Danger Sausage’ from a little kid who was selling their home made comics on my street. £1 well spent, I’d say.

The systematic destruction of HISD should be more of a story, tbh. This is the Republican plan for all public education.

Praying for the young people protesting across NYC and everywhere else. I am so sorry that you have to do any of this. The U.S. is facilitating and funding an ongoing genocide. You have every right to want that to end.

Reading Kelly Hayes & @prisonculture.bsky.social's book Let This Radicalize You and just had to put the book down. "The greatest danger that fear poses: not panic amid disorder, but cooperation with an order that we ought to find unspeakable." I am going to be thinking about this for a long time.

Wearing my cozy new shirt designed by @andreagrimes.bsky.social because we ended up home from church today, and I wanted to be comfy.
