Book eleven of my Vonnegut Infusion-reunion. Because I’m running a fever I’m not getting chemo today but they decided to infuse some fluids into me, so it will be a short read. Another book that he wrote after I stopped reading, so new to me.

Did your mom march in the 60's and 70's? Mine was a folk singing activist, feminist, social worker and I wrote this song for her. I love seeing the moms at the Marches now with their kids! ❤️ @inflatablefilm @particlekid youtu.be/SZCvNny2YVc?...

Looks like science, lies like propaganda. Inside a new wave of climate misinformation

Why optimism is a radical act
I guess I will become a climate optimist. I do feel really guilty using the car so much, but walking isn’t really an option right now. Hopefully in a few months.

Book ten of my Vonnegut Infusion-reunion. I read most of his books originally as a teen and later in the Navy, but I pretty much stopped reading when I started college in the early 80’s. This was published in 1982 so it’s one I’m reading for the first time. We’ll see how it goes. #booksky

Not my usual kind of read, but this was a pretty compelling account of Americans colluding with Nazi Germany to disseminate fascist and anti-semitic propaganda and stockpile weapons to topple our government during Hitler's rise to power in the 30's, and the unsung heroes that tracked them. #booksky

My IPhone says this is a Bearded Iris. Not my area of expertise so I’ll defer. It says they bloom in mid to late spring, which it did, but I guess once wasn’t enough, so here it is again. Don’t know how it got in to my yard but it’s a beautiful flower.

A few photos from No Kings Summerville, South Carolina. Managed three hours but I guess I'm passed the standing in the heat phase of my chemo - had to leave a little early. The response from the very busy Main St traffic was overwhelmingly positive, which makes me wonder how red this area really is.
