Nearby, this issue is fuelling the discussion on a local ostrich farm - very polarizing as is so much these days. An interesting read … Sharing -

I was outside at the nighthawk tree watching the nighthawks flying and a guy came by walking his dog.

“Everything alright?” He asked.

“Just watching the birds,” I said.

“Oh yeah, the nighthawks?”

I grinned, “Yeah! The nighthawks!”

I love when I meet fellow people who know the local birds. 😃

For Sir David: 🎂
Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉

Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace.

You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.

Hey MAGA Christians, school shootings have nothing to do with a lack of prayer in public schools.

I’ve studied the Bible extensively and served as a pastor for nearly three decades.

Trust me: there is no prayer that will suddenly make children bulletproof.

Cut the BS—it’s the guns.

I wonder how someone with so many advantages and so much privilege still manages to feel themselves oppressed, still imagines they are marginalized, still feels perpetually under siege by the world around them—a world that has always favored them.

The rule of law isn't just words. It’s the bedrock stability that protects our way of life. Attacks on it merit more than a shoulder shrug & then a look away. I wrote a little bit to help you understand more about what it is & how it impacts our daily lives. joycevance.substack.com/p/rule-of-law
Rule of Law?
“People value the Rule of Law because it takes some of the edge off the power that is necessarily exercised over them in a political community.

Every citizen in the USA should be obliged to read or watch

The Handmaid's Tale.

Now.

Oh. Damn it. It's already banned in parts of the USA.

When a book becomes alive. Too quick.

It seems it's already too late for a rising. But I do hope I am wrong.

Darya Kozyreva, 19, has been sentenced to nearly three years in a Russian penal colony—for quoting a poem and remembering the suffering of Mariupol. Her “crime”? Using words to oppose Putin’s war.
