Yes, it's only the start of February, but here is the first, early sign of spring: the annual guide for Scotland's Gardens Scheme has arrived, and Clive Penguin is delighted, because he's "blooming freezing (his words)

We're not the first people on this planet who have had to find a way to live under fascism, and we won't be the last. Millions of people around the world are dealing with similar situations right now.

Don't give up. The revolution starts in your own heart, and radiates out from there.

Allison Russell, currently playing Persephone in "Hadestown", helped poet Pádraig Ó Tuama launch his new book "Kitchen Hymns" last night in New York City. Ms. Russell brought her own deep relationship with Persephone into her reading of Pádraig's powerful poems about Jesus and Persephone. #poetry
