I have produced quite a few paintings and drawings of Green Street in Cambridge over the years. Here's a watercolour and ink sketch showing the western end as it goes into Trinity Street. Not sure if I still have this one.

Sierra Nevada mountains just north of LA, CA, USA.

Jagged snow covered peaks rise above green trees and a yellowish plain. A small blue lake peeks around a bend.

Himes: I have a theory on how this ends…

You’re going to see oil go across $100… Projections for economic growth are going to go down.

And at some point in 3-5 weeks, the president is going to say this is really not tenable. And he’s going to declare victory and walk away.

On a hot evening, this perfectly balanced hazy IPA went down a treat. Has that nice balance of sweet and bitterness that I crave in these hazy beers.

A couple things…

The β€œconflictβ€œ in Iran *IS* a war.
It is a war of choice.
It is warfare without conscious.
It was unprovoked.

And I’m sick and tired of people suggesting & implying the only tragedies herein are that US Service Members have died. The people of Iran are innocents in this conflict!

The Constitution is clear: Congress decides on war. When a president uses military force without authorization and Congress stays silent, they are abandoning their role as a co equal branch of government. War is the most serious power our government has. Shame on the U.S. Senate today.

The local elections are in 2 months and Reform UK are begging people to stand.

Recruitment must be going poorly, they’ve probably realised they don’t have enough former Tories to fill their candidate list.

Everything going on is just too much for me right now. It’s all too much.

Trying to remember to breathe. But that’s not helping much. Avoiding the news. Well, okay but the horrible people and acts being committed don’t just disappear bc I close my eyes.

The intensity of everything is too much.

Luxembourg becomes second country worldwide to enshrine abortion rights in constitution Large majority in parliament backs amendment to Luxembourg’s highest law, with β€˜freedom’ to have an abortion added to constitution

Luxembourg lawmakers have voted to enshrine the freedom to have an abortion in the country’s constitution. However, wording was changed from "right" to "freedom" making it much weaker, and the country has a 12-week abortion limit that won't change.

New York City protests reflect contrasting response to US military strikes against Iran Protestors at Columbus Circle say they don't want war with Iran, saying it will destabilize the region, put Americans in danger and be incredibly costly.

Anti-war protests held in about 40 U.S. cities on Monday. "[The protesters represent] a loose coalition of about 30 different groups…. The groups all have different focuses, but they say they agree that going to war with Iran is a mistake." [photo shows pro-war protest] abc7ny.com/post/us-iran...
