My political hot take is that US voters should be able to recall elected representatives via petition - at any time.
No more hiding behind election terms.

β€œFrog, Frog,” cried Toad, β€œtaste these cookies that I have made.”

Frog ate one of the cookies, β€œThese are the best cookies I have ever eaten!” said Frog.

A page from the book I'm working on for H. The illustration is of a rainbow popsicle on a chartreuse background. The text reads: "I think happiness is a rainbow popsicle (I like to ask for one every day after lunch)"

I just hope as an adult he really treasures stuff like this.

Layla's Happiness β€” Enchanted Lion Books This title is also available from Bookshop , a great initiative that supports local, independent bookstores. β˜… 2020 Ezra Jack Keats Award Winner for Illustration β˜… 2020 Ezra Jack Keats Honor...

I'm working on a book for H. We're going to read _Layla's Happiness_ (enchantedlion.com/all-books/la...) and I thought about all of the things that make him happy and started writing it out - just as a story for him. And now I'm emotional about all of the little things.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.

The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.

The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.

Why?

It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

I'm so sorry for your loss. My dad died in March and I wish I had something more to offer other than condolences and understanding.

The U.S. Supreme Court was given the wrong numbers. The β€œunwind” in the event of a negative decision on Tariffs, would be, including investments made, to be made, and return of funds, in excess of 3 Trillion Dollars. It would not be possible to ever make up for that kind of a β€œdrubbing.” That would truly become an insurmountable National Security Event, and devastating to the future of our Country - Possibly non-sustainable!

or she’s right outside the kitchen. I am completely panicked. Then Z opens a drawer AND THERE SHE IS! She apparently climbed into it when I opened a different drawer earlier in the day. We will be doing random roll calls from now on 🫠 3/3

We went outside and called for her, thinking that if she had somehow gotten out (all of our cats are inside cats) that maybe she was still around the house or in the yard. Nothing.

I go back into the kitchen and I’m calling for her again and I hear her! So she’s either somewhere in the kitchen 2/

Last night I got cat dinner ready. The boys were in their spots, but Myrrh was not in her spot and she would not come to me when I called for her. I went all throughout the house, calling for her, looking in her usual hiding spots, and I could not find her. I started to get very worried 1/

Yes, Mr. President: You’re right. We do have β€œthe worst health care” of any major country.

Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right.

The solution: Medicare for All.
