Saw my first Christmas lights up on a house down the street from me. They have a large nativity scene and this little dude. It’s such a strange combination! 😂

@kayharrison1209.bsky.social This reminds me of things we’ve talked about. And your dad!

Italians have very strict rules when it comes to making carbonara. The classic combination of Italian pasta, pork and cheese are mixed with egg yolks and pepper preferably just moments before serving to create the perfect dish.
‘Fake’ carbonara sauce causes outrage in Italy | CNN
Italy is pushing to ban “Italian-sounding” foods abroad amid a scandal over the appearance of a Belgian-made carbonara sauce found on the shelves of a store in the European Parliament.

We had a very warm autumn and the leaves have only just started falling in the past couple of weeks. Yesterday there were no fewer than THREE leaf blowers all going at the same time. I almost lost my mind.

Would totally wear this today. I adore a cape! I even have one my mom got for me in black lined with black faux fur and a fur collar. I call it my Russian Countess cape!
The first wintry bite is making itself felt today & thoughts of a cosy cape are very appealing. This early #1880s example is constructed from stranded down filaments & silk so that it is almost weightless but warm. Precursor to the down jacket but in white bobbly style #V&A #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Let me know how you’ve all been and any major events I’ve missed. I’m trying to catch up on older posts but there’s no way to get through all of them.

The plus side of being away was that I got sooooo much reading done! Just a cornucopia of reading goodness! If anyone needs and suggestions, let me know!

Hi everyone! I’m back. It started out to be only a short break but ended up being much longer! I’ve missed you all a ton.

Hi everyone! I’ll be back soon. I owe a lot of you messages and thanks to everyone who has gotten in touch. I miss you all. I just needed a break and a chance to give some attention to my mental health!

True. It’s no accident that the word “community” is one among the many Trump wants removed from all federal docs and sites. It’s very dangerous to fascism.
1. You feel powerless? Don’t know what you can do to resist the rise of fascism?
Here is an answer: Good Things.
Fascism inflicts pain and harm as a matter of doctrine.
Kindness, care and conviviality defend us from it.
The more we build community, the less it can take root.

The irony of that reprobate calling them “entitlements.” How much money has this little freak gotten from our government? 🤔🤔🤔
Elon Musk says he wants to “eliminate” programs like Social Security and Medicare: “Entitlements... That’s the big one to eliminate”

The death penalty is an absolute abomination and no one will ever convince me otherwise. It needs to be abolished worldwide.

I think Elon is very good at knowing how to flatter and manipulate Trump. Trump is more of a boor and a bully than he is a manipulator. What does everyone else think?
Elon vs Trump. Who is the better manipulator ? How long can they play nice ?
