@govmikedewine.bsky.social as an Ohioan, you among all governors should know the consequences of deploying National Guard troops against American citizens. I urge you to rethink your decision.

Air layers taken from a volunteer crabapple my neighbor and I let grow between our houses. It gets cool orange apples in the fall. The first air layer didn’t take, so I recut and kept the sphagnum less wet and less packed. That did the trick. Last pic is the debris I cut off—fully 8 feet! #bonsai

I need to apologize to Neanderthals for suggesting Marge must carry their DNA. Just read an amazing piece saying 40,000 years ago they fashioned an epoxy-like adhesive to repair their tools. No way MTG has that highly developed intelligence.

Powerful words from Langston Hughes. For millions, these tumultuous times are not new. But if we choose to open our eyes, hearts, and minds to unite rather than divide, then:
“O, let America be America again—
The land that never has been yet—
And yet must be—the land where every man is free.”

Thanks, @repmaxmiller for voting to hurt seniors in Ohio and nationwide so you can give even more tax breaks to the filthy rich. Oh, and saddling future generations with even more crippling debt: $2.3 Trillion added to the deficit.
