This was the third weekend of sugaring season, which meant my third meal at a sugar shack this year.

Maple syrup is going to get me through March and into April.

Clusters of ruffly white daffodils with hints of orange at the center of each bloom on green stems.

Two pale orange daffodils with darker orange trumpets with purple freesia, yellow and white daffodils, and green stems and leaves in the background. The glass greenhouse roof is just visible along the upper edge.

White daffodils with yellow trumpets whose ends are dipped in orange. Green stems and leaves below, purple freesia behind.

Bright yellow daffodils with rounded petals and shallow, open trumpets on green stems. Blurry yellow, orange, red, and white daffodils in the background.

Saint David’s Day providing a good prompt for something I think our skylines need right now: daffodils from last year’s bulb show at Mount Holyoke’s Talcott Greenhouse.

(This year’s show opens next weekend and it cannot come soon enough.)

If you live in New England, may I recommend keeping an emergency stash of Hoodsie Cups in your freezer?

They come in quite handy quite often these days.

Things may be falling apart, but yo yo! The center ain't holding, either!

Tbh I am disconcerted by this meeting so far. The US’s violation of the charter is red letter, blazing, clear as day. Many of the US’s allies are mentioning it in passing. I suspect they wont like what follows from signaling they are less committed to the UN charter than they are to countering Iran

Two photos. The first shows Catturd tweeting: Name one US inspired regime change that hasn't ended in absolute disaster The next tweet shows him posting an AI illustration of Khamenei turned into a pile of dust. It says "I'm eliminated."

Two tweets. The first shows Laura Loomer promoting her show, where she says "A message has been sent that we are not interested in going back to the way politics were prior to Donald Trump, prior to 2016. We don't want warhawks. We don't want any more Neocons. We want American First. Period. End of discussion." The next tweet says: Today is a great day. Our military is amazing. @PeteHegseth is an absolute killer. Now you see why the Deep State worked so hard against him. It’s great having a Sec War who has Infidel literally tattooed on his body. He actually gets it. God bless him.

Two tweets. The first shows Will Chamberlain tweeting: The Republican Party is no longer the party of regime change and endless wars. If you want to be its standard-bearer that is a non-negotiable position. The next tweet shows him posting "Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead." The tweet has a USA flag attached.

Two tweets. The first shows Gunther Eagleman tweeting: "Warmonger Lindsey Graham just rushed to Fox to advocate for U.S. involvement as soon as he could. He is also pushing for a US-backed regime change in Iran. I would like to renominate Graham to get a one-way ticket to the frontlines of every war he wants America involved in." There's an attached video of Graham speaking. The next shows Eagleman tweeting: UST IN! President Trump is HARD AT WORK all weekend after the massive strikes on Iran! He’s already on the phone with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte! Trump is a machine!" There's an attached video of a news segment about the war in Iran.

There should be an Earth for people who don't hate all living things

Sing, Goddess, sing of the rage of Achilles, son of Peleus—
that murderous anger which condemned Achaeans
to countless agonies and threw many warrior souls
deep into Hades, leaving their dead bodies
carrion food for dogs and birds—
all in fulfilment of the will of Zeus.

Yet thou didst kill my children.

At the centre of the dais sits Tyrannia, with the appearence of a demon, with horns and fangs. The figure of Tyranny has flowing woman's hair, a cloak with gold embroidery and precious stones, a gold cup in her hand and a goat, the traditional symbol of lust, at her feet. Below is the vanquised Justitia: the scales are broken and scattered around her on the ground. Around Tyranny's throne are gathered the Vices. (Taken from the Web Gallery of Art’s description of the fresco.)
