You wouldn't have time; much too busy gardening.

Is Trump’s war on Iran legal? That’s up to the US and Israel to decide and they have a great track record on these things | First Dog on the Moon International rules-based order for thee but not for me

Indeed. At least tubs are (sometimes) stackable, and transparent - cupboards not so much. Unstacking can be irritating, but.

Not just you. And if you go mad and buy more, the cupboards suddenly can't be made to contain them.

Glad to be able to report that long-time friends in Sharjah are all safe - damn and blast all warmongers, who seem to exist only to worry the soul out of the rest of us.

I have a problem with faith because it requires belief, which I don't find trustworthy. Some stuff I know, some stuff I don't, and I think that's as good as it gets. That said, my understanding of secular humanism is that it's more trustworthy than religion, by a country mile.

Stop Trump Tower on the Gold Coast! If you, like me, are concerned about the direction our country will go if a Trump Tower is built in our country, then join me in objecting!

Please sign and share, my folks.

America reminds me strongly of the kid in the playground who pinches people's lunch money. It really *doesn't* work to appease one of these - !

Trump Started an Illegal War. No Coalition. No Plan. Nobody Asked Europe. From Davos to Brittany, Europe is drawing its own conclusions about what American leadership now means.

Alexander telling it like it is. (Why aren't you siding with Europe, Albo?)

I call on the Australian government to #RaiseTheRate of all support payments to a living wage.
This would be the single most effective way to lift the productivity, quality of life, and well-being of the whole country.

Frogs! Thought I heard a distant chorus during the night (over the rain), and this morning there are pobblebonks going off in the street! (76mm overnight, so 151 mm for the week. Yay!)

Went down and emptied the gauge (40mm), because there's *more* coming! (The weeds are rejoicing, I can tell you.)

Thread. Just the thing for a rainy Sunday, between bouts of ironing (and the media computer is refusing, dammit).
