Had lunch today outside at someone's house and I knew they had lots of flowers, so I brought my camera just in case some Hummingbirds were hanging out! #Birds #Nature #Photography
If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.
Democracy dies in oligarchy.
“Stay angry, little Meg,” Mrs Whatsit whispered. “You will need all your anger now.”
"Okay I get that," Meg whispered back, "but I've been angry for over a decade straight and my arteries are basically solid carbon fiber at this point. Do I ever get a freakin' break?"
“There were people who’d steal money from people. Fair enough. That was just theft. But there were people who, with one easy word, would steal the humanity from people. That was something else.”
― Terry Pratchett, The City Watch Trilogy
If he wants to declare martial law, he will. It won't be based on reality. I don't know why some people continue to say: "be peaceful or he'll invoke martial law." Are you all living in this country in 2026???? Haven't you seen them make things up out of whole cloth???? Are you 10 years old?

Miss imagery? Miss dialogue? WTAF do you think I'm doing while reading a book, skipping half of the pages? OTOH, I've already had many long late night discussions with my english major brother about reading critically versus reading for entertainment and I have no interest in another with some rando
How on earth does one read a book for entertainment "badly"? I'm 58 and I've been reading 4-5 novels a week since I was in 4th grade. Like anything, if you read enough you can get quite good at doing it regularly. College reading? Well I took a lot of notes and re-read back then
I tend to read around 180-220 books a year. I think it's due to a cross between addiction and being on the spectrum
