So, apropos of nothing, what's happening with the "big beautiful ballroom" and the bulldozing of the east wing? It was huge news for like 5 minutes and then ... radio silence. Is the rubble still there? Wasn't there some action around damage to a national historic landmark?

After our early Thanksgiving, we went up to visit @houseinthewoods.bsky.social to see their Thanksgiving dinner. Three shifts, hundreds of vets and family fed an amazing dinner with a side of camaraderie. Dee gave a wonderful tour and some great background. God bless...

Reading, exploring, and learning are fundamental to being a good human.
Sharing this again. It's from four years ago, and censorship continues to rear its ugly head. Thank you, Meg, for stating this so well.

Absolutely true!
Traveling, reading, eating- that’s kryptonite to bigotry and racism. We see first hand how horrible a world is when only one race or view is acceptable.

I try not to post political stuff, but people need to be reminded of this once in a while. My parents both served in WW2 because of this.

Your reminder that Humboldt Fog cheese, Humboldt County, CA, the Humboldt penguin (Spheniscus humboldti),and the Humboldt Current that allows wine grapes to grow in Chile are all named for an 18th C gay scientist whose love letters were all burned and who left his entire estate to his “valet.” 🏳️🌈

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.
We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

I got a text message today about a YouTube live stream tonight: The People's State of the Union. No clue as to whether this is TrumpAmerica spewing propaganda or some attemp at a rational rebuttal. Any ideas?
