It’s only a year since we came to live in North East England, so I don’t know whether it’s unusual to have the late summer garden flowers still going in mid-November?
It’s nice to retain a bit of summer colour in the garden, but rather unexpected! xx #gardening

Justice Department struggles as thousands exit — and few are replaced
The Justice Department has lost thousands of experienced attorneys and backfilled a fraction of the open jobs, in part because of a lack of qualified candidates.

The goal of Spotify’s algorithm isn’t to help you discover new music, its goal is simply to keep you listening for as long as possible. It serves up the safest songs possible to keep you from pressing stop.

Yup. I said this earlier today, but it was only a guess. Thanks for confirming it. It is no coincidence that of the 8 who came forward to do this, none of them are running in 2026. But they ran cover for some who are.

The fight for healthcare right now can’t end with ACA subsidies. It HAS TO BE bigger. Too many Americans are suffering over medical debt and spiraling costs.
It should be nothing short of Medicare for All.
