Years ago, I assigned my college freshmen to choose an advertisement to analyze. They brought their ads to class, and presented them to me and their classmates. One was It for Dolce & Gabbana, and it depicted what the class and I perceived to be a gang rape scene. I'm still appalled by it.

The Black Eyed Susans are starting to wilt, as was I during my morning walk on this hot humid Jersey day. 🥵

Gardening friends, here are some photos of flowers I encountered on my walk. Some Black Eyed Susans [Rudbeckia] and Impatiens, which are a bit beaten by yesterday's rain.

Good morning! 🌞 No blue skies today in Jersey, but the temperature has dropped significantly [65° 😯]!! I'm trying to ignore the news today, so I'll be bloomscrolling and bird-photo-scrolling! ☺️
Here is a dahlia from my walk last year. I'm waiting for this year's blooms!

I'm trying to find a bit of happiness in these dark times. Hydrangeas tended by the lovely hard-working Spanish-speaking gardeners in my complex. 💙💙💙

Good afternoon! 🌞 It's unbearably hot again in Jersey [93° and rising], but I took a quick walk, and saw some pretty lilies.

I've watched this movie FOUR times in the past week. Why? Because I feel it's where we are today. Where is our Churchill? I'm waiting for a Senator, Representative, or governor to say, We will fight the fascists in LA, we'll fight them in Chicago, we'll fight them in New York, and Newark! ✌️

Both done! I've been jumping back and forth between Bluesky and Threads, but I'm going to take a break. I've got other projects to work on. 😊

I'm only halfway through the first one. I bought 2. I do need a cordless drill. I don't know how carpenters managed without them for hundreds of years. It would have helped if all of the holes were the proper size for the screws!
Here's my half finished bookcase.

By the way, I've been assembling bookcases, and wished I had your energy and strength. I had a little cry over getting blisters on my fingers after screwing in nails on just one piece! 😂
