Well, this has been the winter from hell in so very many ways, but I was happy to see the first snowdrops emerging in a sunny garden corner. So jealous of the pictures of actual blooming flowers coming in from UK friends, and soon we'll have our own.

Colbert Doesn’t Give an FCC About Calling Out CBS

Stephen Colbert said that the FCC and CBS - which is in no way a compromised or complicit organization - wouldn’t allow him to broadcast an interview with Democratic State Rep James Talarico. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/17/a...

Stonewall 2.0. ❤️
