Today for #InternationalWomensDay I received a rose at church and 50% off my dinner bill.
My child, I receive this, and I hunger for freedom for us all. For flowers in the ground and not on the graves of children being slaughtered daily by mad men.
Freedom is our birthright. For all women. All.
I cannot say enough good things about the Indian sense of family and care. Stuck in another country, my extended Kerala family has fired up the aunty (Kochamma) network. They are making sure I get to church and I’m watching Cricket. 🏏
Aunties will save the world. #T20WorldCup
When life throws you limes 🍋🟩 , make sweet lime 🥤 drink & become #keralablasters newest fan? 🤷♀️ I’m among the thousands stuck bc mid east airports are unsafe my flights cancelled 3x. God’s provision is footy, a priest and his sweet family sitting next to me. Men wage war. God still reigns.
Early #Sabbath Sign out: gone until 3/9. No laptop. Actual vacation. Grand adventure. Thank you, plow drivers. Thank you, God. I am not going to wait for a better time. Stitch by stitch. Step by step. See you on the other side of the storm. #NoEmail
LA Burdicks at Logan airport is God’s provision.
This is for @stickydoodler.bsky.social but it still seems like a bad idea!
I hate the phrase “domestic violence” with the fury of a thousand suns.
The research leaves no doubt: Legalizing sports betting in a given state leads to more bankruptcies, lower credit scores, significant debt buildup — and increased rates of domestic violence.
Any one of those men could have stood up and said stop. No. Enough.
But we have to practice building cultures of interruption. In small ways before it gets to a big incident.
(Back= Morning Prayer and said, "Do you come peaceably?" 5 He said, "Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to the LORD; sanctify yourselves and come with me to the sacrifice." And he sanctified Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice. When they came, he looked on Eliab and thought, "Surely the Lord's anointed is now before the LORD." 7 But the LoRD said to Samuel, "Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for the LORD does not see as mortals see; they look on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart." 8 Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. He said, "Neither has the LORD chosen this one." 9 Then Jesse made Shammah pass by. And he said, "Neither has the LoRD chosen this one." I Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel, and Samuel said to Jesse, "The LorD has not chosen any of these." " Samuel said to Jesse, "Are all your sons here?" And he said, "There remains yet the youngest, but he is keeping the sheep." And Samuel said to Jesse, "Send and bring him; for we will not sit down until he comes here." " He sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and had beautiful eyes, and was handsome. The LorD said, "Rise and anoint him; for this is the one." 13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the presence of his brothers; and the spirit of the LoRD came mightily upon David from that day forward. Samuel then set out and went to Ramah.
Praying today with 1 Samuel 16- let us pray 🙏🏼: God, I feel for Samuel here. I’m so conditioned to judge by outward appearances, myself included. I see beauty and think “Surely the Lord’s anointed is now before the Lord.” Forgive me. I want to see as You see. You look at the heart. Guide me there.
A male cleric told me to either learn to drink scotch or play golf. He got caught cheating on his wife.
It’s the Gold Medal 🥇 Men laughing. Of course, Trump makes the joke. But it’s Olympians who laugh along.
It’s so many men who laugh along and don’t stop it.
Some man on that team could have stopped it.
One of those man with a mom.
A sister.
A daughter.
A #girldad
A wife
But not a damn one did
What if we made sure everyone in America had enough?
Wow.
In unprecedented decision, The Boston Globe will not print a paper for Feb. 24 delivery due to blizzard. #journalism www.bostonglobe.com/2026/02/23/b...
Do we know it was a joke? That seems presumptive.
Thank a plow driver for working outside today
Thank a journalist for working outside today.
If US MEN have an ounce of integrity they will decline.
“"I must tell you, we’re going to have to bring the women’s team, you do know that," Trump said when extending the invitation to the men's team.” #Hockey www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

The trove of files released by the Department of Justice, illuminates Epstein’s deep interest and entrenchment in the scientific community.
But the files also underscore how he used his power and money in ways that kept women out of places where they might succeed. https://bit.ly/4qWgPLz
