Knees are reliable too!

The trick is to be able to put them back where they belong, & not dwell on them or allow them to trigger an emotional response. Perhaps forget is not the right word. 2/2

I don't think it's possible to forget past hurts, as in "forgive & forget". Memories are baked into the subconscious & sights, sounds, smells can make them bubble up.1/2

The little ones have mastered it!!

"If you live in Alaska, I need you to buy a Ukrainian flag and turn any area that Putin is going to be into a sea of Ukrainian flags - so many that, when Putin lands, all he's going to see is just yellow and blue."

What is the cure for hatred?

Bummer- bad timing

Transformer blew?????

CDC shooter believed COVID vaccine made him suicidal, his father tells police The Georgia Bureau of Investigation identified the man who opened fire at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as Patrick Joseph White. White died and a police officer was shot and killed.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is to blame.

calico cat with gold eyes

Hope's not just a beauty queen. She's a lap cat who, when you call her name, will jump up and be petted while she happily chirps to you. She's a smart kitty who's knows the vacuum's not a dangerous monster. And she's got more plush than a velvet Elvis wall hanging!
"Beat that!" she says!😸

Many people, including famous authors, have said, a
house without a cat isn't a complete home. Adopt a
cat and you'll see why that's true.

Love the silhouette and the reflection- very dramatic.

Your uncle must have been a lovely man. May his memory be a blessing.

so adorable - makes me want to scoop up and cuddle!

A black, white and yellow writer spider hovers between earth and sky. Her web near invisible save for the zigzag pattern beneath her. She cradles a silken treasure.

Upon the silver’d web she waits,
’Neath azure skies where silence slates,
Her prey now bound in gossamer tomb,
A whispered fate, a woven doom.
No cradle here, no tender keep,
But death’s own shroud, where shadows sleep.

Home sapiens - misnomer Our planet would be better off if evolution stopped before reaching the so called "wise man". Animals don't destroy surroundings for their pleasure or greed. Animals don't hate others & start wars & kill. Long past time for Homo sapiens to wise up.

BREAKING: We filed a class action lawsuit against ICE for denying people access to lawyers and subjecting them to inhumane conditions at 26 Federal Plaza in New York.

ICE is illegally holding people here for weeks, often without adequate access to medical care, food, or legal counsel.

Thanks,Andy. I'll pass the photo compliment on to Dave. Have a great weekend.

Thanks - I am not good at using hashtags

thanks - hummers were late to arrive this year, so I'm still holding out hope for the goldfinch.

Whether you like it or not, we're all one race, living on one magic planet, spinning in infinity through the cosmic void.

We need peace now.
We need equality now.
We need reason now.
We need sustainability now.
We need progress now.

It’s time to end the madness and evolve into our higher selves.
