Chin Sings La donna e mobile

NOT enamoured with the misogyny of the lyrics.

AM enamoured by the sheer EXUBERANCE of the aria.

Covid-era vid.

Dear all,

Helen passed away at 13:21 local time. Helen would not have wanted us to be sad for a long time. All they wanted was to be remembered. They looked forward to being rid of pain and to being at rest. Helen took great comfort in you, their friends and readers.

Today, March 20th, is Rewilding Day. To celebrate, a couple of wild Irish Atlantic rainforest images.

Rewilding isn't just the means by which nature loss is reversed: it's how we can reconnect with the natural world, and each other.

But Ireland is way behind: let's catch up! 🌍

Here's an expert saying that "constitutional crisis" isn't the right term **because it doesn't go far enough.**

"The president is asserting dictatorial power and ‘constitutional crisis’ doesn’t capture the gravity of the situation.”

This is, BTW, the case for 100% of "reinstated" fed employees I've personally spoken with. None are actually back at work and serving the public as they were previously and there is a widespread assumption that "re-firings" will occur as soon as a legal mechanism is found.
Anyone celebrating federal employees getting reinstated, you need to dig deeper: the people I know who have been reinstated in a number of agencies were immediately put on administrative leave, which means the Administration is organizing a work-around to continue reducing the federal workforce.

Had a blood test yesterday with a LOVELY phlebotomist. She was chatty, kind, laughed at my idiotic banter, was genuinely interested in me, complimented ME on being nice & her vampirism was PAINLESS..!!

The five-minute interaction with her GENUINELY brightened my day. &gave me a MODICUM of hope..

Susan Barker joins me for a conversation about her new novel OLD SOUL.

Watched Wolf Man last night.

(I was BOOKED to watch A Complete Unknown, but I'm not a Dylan fan, I'm not a Timothée fan & I just couldn't be ARSED..!!)

Now I'm not as au fait with werewolf cinema as I am with vampire cinema. Werewolves generally have less potency, less potential, for me, than..

Well I accidentally rented a copy of LE COMTE DE MONTE CRISTO that only has French subtitles and the last time I was in France, I panicked trying to order a cheeseburger at McDonald's. So I guess I'll be working through some unresolved trauma for 3 hours.

Oh great we get to hear from a Labour mp about all the deportations Labour is doing.

In response to three people’s death this is what we get.

Give me strength. They even asked if ID cards would stop drownings??

Our beloved @lcfc lost 0-2 in a plucky battle v Man City.

ALWAYS fab to be @ King Power, even (ESPECIALLY) when we're in the doldrums&staring relegation in the face.

But we had several bona fide chances&never gave up. Back home running, walking&still singing✊🏼🦊
