The end of a very pleasant, easy hike at Lough Bray in Co. Wicklow, Ireland. Sitting in the sunshine, drinking coffee, listening to the water lap against the rocks. Peace.

Trump 2028 isn’t a joke. Donald Trump doesn’t believe the rules apply to him, and he’ll do anything in his power to hijack a 3rd term.

Wake up, America. You will not have a country if Trump rigs this election.

Ice needs to be abolished
AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.

Marguerite made clothes;
Patterns, fabric, spools of thread.
Love made Marguerite.

She walked in the woods
Her ancestors knew, —and held
Me in arms and heart.

Happy Mother’s Day Marguerite❣️

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

An ethical man
Stood all day sounding alarms.
The world was watching.

Thanks Cory Booker
Standing, speaking on the Floor.
A beacon of light!

How do I cope?
A vase of feathers,
A box of acorns,
Books full of petals,
Leaves collected,
A butterfly wing from a lost Summer,
A smooth stone from a river,
A shell from an ocean sunset,
I stand beneath trees,
Roots under my feet,
Stories that will stay,
And I cope.

I’m a patriot.
My ancestors dumped the tea,
And fought many wars.

They fought for you, me—
They fought for Democracy.
Trumpers do not know

What great harm they’ve done
Trump’s Patrimonialism,
A narcissist’s scorge

We need to bring the concept of autodidacts back into circulation—those who learn things for the pure joy of learning—the idea that you don’t have to be formally schooled to educate yourself. The word “amateur” comes from the Latin for “love,” and to learn is to love.

Winter Trees
By William Carlos Williams

All the complicated details
of the attiring and
the disattiring are completed!
A liquid moon
moves gently among
the long branches.
Thus having prepared their buds
against a sure winter
the wise trees
stand sleeping in the cold.
