@nancampbellwrites.bsky.social must have read our minds while we were in The Netherlands visiting our gorgeous admin @readingwithcaz.bsky.social.😜 How could we not immediately think of the stunning Dutch windmills we saw with this quote?!😍
P.S. This is a real windmill from Caz's hometown.🙌

STOCKARD: “The question is whether Tennessee will use a stick of dynamite to blow up the wall of separation of church and state, or a sledgehammer to knock it down brick by brick. Either way, it seems to be falling.” #TennesseeTheocracy

This World AIDS Day, we mourn the hundreds of thousands of Americans lost to HIV/AIDS and stand with those living with the diagnosis today.
While the Trump Administration refuses to mark this day, California will never abandon our neighbors, friends, and loved ones affected.

Today is World AIDS Day, a day that reminds me of the decades-long fight for dignity, science, and compassion. We’ve come so far because activists, researchers, and communities refused to be ignored.

"Wrenn reshapes familiar tropes such as enemies to lovers and forced proximity into something raw and confronting, refusing to let the narrative slip into predictability." 👇
"Cynda slammed the door, panicked. For some reason, that woman intended on dragging her back into a project and a world that had nearly destroyed her."

Harlan the Houae Centipede is growing.
I've read that these cute crawlies can live up to 10 years, and they're great for pest control.
Halan is the length of my thumb, and with those legs, easily the width.
