Our highest loyalty doesn't belong to people or parties. It belongs to principles.
If you wouldn't accept it from your opponents, you shouldn't accept it from your allies.
Integrity is standing by your values even when your own group violates them.

Frequent flyer observation: @united.com’s toxic trait is waiting to announce delays until you’ve left the lounge and reached the gate. They know full well the plane’s an hour or more late… they just choose not to tell anyone.

It’s that time of year when I derive great enjoyment from listening to @dranniegray.bsky.social’s podcast interviews about festive feasts through the ages. Love the content, love her evident enthusiasm for the subject matter 🥧🍗🎄

What a pleasure it was to recently attend the @churchillsociety.bsky.social’s #ICS2025, spanning beautiful historic venues in Washington, D.C. Some fascinating speakers and conversations reflecting on #Churchill’s life, legacy and leadership.

Another work in progress.
(Please spare me the “gotchas” about his failings in Bengal and elsewhere. I’m well aware that #Churchill, like every human that’s ever existed, was a deeply flawed individual. That does not erase his towering impact. TIA ✨)

Another enjoyable winter afternoon spent at the #FDR Presidential Library in Hyde Park, NY. I certainly make the most of my membership here ☺️

Another essay, officially done and dusted! It’s ready (or ready as it’ll ever be) for submission. Now, time to reclaim the dining room table for its intended purpose—actual dining!

Today in 1944 Nazi Germany launched its last major offensive, with a stunning strike through this hilly forested terrain, the Ardennes.
It was the start of the Battle of the Bulge.
