Welp—CDC’s entire data team for its legendary national health and nutrition survey (NHANES)—our health census—has been laid off. Now we are flying blind to nutrition and chronic disease status in the U.S.—is this supposed to help us be MAHA? www.statnews.com/2025/10/14/c...

: Magnolia Haven :

I have been living in Ottawa for one year, and this Spring is filled with magnolias everywhere. So many blooms, huge magnolia trees, it feels as if this city is a haven for these beautiful trees.

Very happy their tour is doing well. Now, could the Democrats actually **do something** to stop the destruction of their country and threats to mine?
Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

I did my Masters in Higher Education, and my thesis was entitled Music, an Invitation to Creativity. I started playing the piano when I was very young, and it has been with me throughout my life.

Congress is about to cut #Medicaid by $880 billion.

☎️ CALL THESE REPS. With close margins in their elections, these Representatives are vulnerable. They have many people on Medicaid in their districts.

☎️ Call the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121.
List below 👇

Call now and all day tomorrow.
To emphasize the importance of preserving Medicaid, we request that people in high-priority districts call and write their members of Congress who are in areas that have high Medicaid usage and whose reps have competitive seats. A handy list is below; the Capitol Switchboard is (202) 224-3121.

Artists report that an effective system is to give into “work-love.” The deposition of paint from a brush, or the laying of words on paper. There’s a realization that it’s all of value, and it is, after all, what we do. Painters paint.

:: Aquarius, part two ::

Finally, this “idea” for a drawing is much better than yesterday in my point of view. The Inktober52 prompt is Aquarius, which means, in astrological terms, the water carrier. There is also an insect named Aquarius remigis, known as the water strider.

As in, "Pierre Poilievre brought the Convoy seditionists coffee and doughnuts while their trucks sported banners trumpeting "Poilievre for Prime Minister."

Which makes Poilievre what, exactly?

I sat staring, staring, staring – half lost,
learning a new language or rather the same language in a different dialect.
So still were the big woods where I sat,
sound might not yet have been born.
