Yesterday I celebrated Buy Nothing Day with breakfast at a locally-owned restaurant with some of my US relatives, followed by things to do at home. It's a great way to recover from Thanksgiving dinner.

SEN. KELLY : “They informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. This is about the media cycle, and intimidation… We basically repeated the uniform code of military justice, and they're saying that's in violation of it. It's absurd. Comical.”

Absolutely! Putin invaded a sovereign nation in hopes of restoring the old Russian Empire. Should the US give its east coast back to England to restore the old British Empire?
🇺🇦 Zelensky: The crux of the entire diplomatic situation is that it was Russia, and only Russia, that started this war, and it is Russia, and only Russia, that has been refusing to end it throughout the full-scale invasion.

Rewarding a dictator-aggressor always leads to another war. One that is usually even worse.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem should resign and be criminally charged, according to critics who seized on a report revealing that zero people who were arrested in a high-profile raid were charged with a crime.

A great moment in television.
The finale of the great TV comedy show Blackadder goes Forth.
Back then I didn't expect one of the funniest programmes ever to end with a scene that makes me cry every time I see it.
Every single time.

I've been a dementia carer/caregiver for my late husband and spent a lot of time in dementia carer/caregiver support groups, listening to other caregivers' stories. This is the most appropriate next action!

Hi Bluesky,
God just needs 17k followers to hit 600k. And then 66k more after that to hit 666k. That will be funny.

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

At a demonstration in Lynnwood, WA, today, almost all the reactions were very positive and I was thanked by several teenage passersby. My sign said "Feed the hungry." A passenger in a passing car looked at my sign and shook her head vigorously "no." How the bleep do you object to feeding the hungry?
