we are getting very near to the seasonal depression time of the year and I'd like to remind my friends that many living things have a period of hibernation and dormancy during the year. listen to what your bod and mind need; it's okay to give yourself the time you need to rest

DOJ WHISTLEBLOWER: “I wouldn’t be abiding by my oath if I stayed silent right now.” 🇺🇸

He says Trump’s DOJ wanted him to lie (about Kilmar being a gang member & terrorist, etc…) — and fired him when he wouldn’t.

This is wonderful news for future Huntington's Disease sufferers. It's very early, with a small test group, and needs to be peer reviewed & duplicated. Plus, projections are that the treatment would cost $2 million or more, making it out of reach for most. But hopeful.

Here's the @thebaltimorebanner.com column about my 10K with my sister and what it taught us about aging, fitness and what you learn when you allow yourself to change. Also about Baltimore, which rocks. www.thebanner.com/opinion/colu...

I’m as proud walking a 10K now as I was running the Baltimore Marathon 20 years ago

Twenty years ago, I ran the marathon at the Baltimore Running Festival. This past weekend, my twin sister and I celebrated the anniversary by walking a shorter race.

Hello everyone! ☕️
The beautiful dark red fruits of the hawthorn tree (called haws) which appear in autumn after the blossom has faded are such an important food source for some birds in autumn and winter. Have a wonderful new week everyone 🌿♥️🌿💚🌿

Three high schoolers founded a book club that reads some of the country's most frequently banned books after a state law removing books with sexual content was signed in 2023. Two years later, many of the books have been reshelved and parts of the law can't be enforced.

When books were being pulled from Iowa classrooms, these teens started an after-school club to read them
