West Chester Chili Cook-Off 2025 is done and while we didn't win, we still helped raise a lot of money for local food banks. Cheers to my team mates on Team H&S for another solid showing!

No Kings is reporting that 7,000,000 Americans turned out to rally against Trump today.

That's over THREE TIMES the number of votes Donald Trump claims to have gotten over Kamala Harris.

Pics from the Philadelphia No Kings rally. A great speech from Rep. Jamie Raskin and good trouble with good people.

I only own one yellow article of clothing, but it's perfect for protesting this administration at the No Kings rally in Philadelphia.

If history teaches us one thing
Never trust a man who would be king
Who seeks all power for himself
To burnish his prestige and wealth

And a nation born in revolution
Should know this offers no solution
For there can be no liberty
Where one man rules with impunity

Jay Bhattacharya. RFK Jr. Marty Makary. Mehmet Oz. Vinay Prasad. This carnival of clowns only want free speech for themselves. They've been "silenced," they say. No one silenced them - you can't shut these guys up. Now they're in power, and only what THEY say counts. @joho.bsky.social

Happy mother's day to all the moms out there, especially those celebrating their first Holiday and those who have become moms through marriage or adoption. You all are wonderful! Thank you for all you do!

Why don't we get a "hate" button? This is repellent.

Someone pulled this up from the recesses of the Internet, I think I originally posted it nearly a decade ago, and it's still true

Saint Patrick's month is only a few short weeks away. I pass on to you this absolute gem of a jig, written by Norwegian fiddler Annlaug BΓΈrsheim. An Irish jig, written about a Scottish bar by a very talented lady from Norway. Multiculturalism works. Enjoy!

"Last night's fun" (reel) is kicking my ass. Why is it harder to learn reels than jigs?

There aren't many small issues these days. This seems almost quaint.

A lovely afternoon for a bike ride, but I think I carried too much of the road home with me.
