I have a #FridayFinish - keep strong 🇨🇦

My mum didn't get it, but that's ok. My #Art, and it's going to be a daily reminder to stay strong.

Photo of an original cross stitch design in a hoop. The fabric is a 28 count warm milk mocha colour. The top half of the design features an orange shark chasing a pool of random red and white fish, with the words underneath "DO NOT PANIC" The lower half of the design depicts the orange shark fleeing from the organized red and white fish that have come together in the shape of a larger fish. Moreover, the organized shape is in the colours of the Canadian Flag, with a sparkly red beaded fish in the centre of the white field where the Canadian Maple leaf usually is. At the base is the large stitched word "ORGANIZE". It's a reminder that as individuals sometimes tyranny seems insurmountable, but when we band together, we are strong and will defeat the orange menace.

Folks are asking, “what should I do in this moment?” One of the most passionate, progressive voices in Congress for 30 years, Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden answers that question. Here’s our conversation, inside a replica of the Senate chamber at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute: youtu.be/n_nQ-Moa9fI?...

I told you I had more Bluebirds to share 😬

They take my breath away when they catch the sunlight 🪶

A male Eastern Bluebird sits in a tree with a few buds starting to form. In the sunlight his head and wing are a brilliant bright light blue. His chest is a rust color over a white belly. Looking closely, his claws are mostly dark but one catches the light to show up as a tawny light brown. He has a dark eye that stares into your soul.

Hier schreibt Renate Bergmann, guten Morgen. Ich habe gefrühstückt, eine schöne Tasse starken Bohnenkaffee getrunken und ziehe mir jetzt gleich mein schönstes Kleid an und gehe zum Wahllokal. Wählen ist unser höchstes Recht, lassen Se sich das nicht entgehen! Und bitte, wählen Se mit Bedacht.

Heute zählt es! Wir sind alle genervt von diesem Wahlkampf - ABER: Heute zählt eure Stimme für Demokratie, Antifaschismus und einen lebenswerten Planeten. Lasst uns allen Parteien zeigen, dass sie auch in der nächsten Legislatur nicht um die Klimakrise herumkommen werden 🔥

Thank you, Bernie

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night.

800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream.

There is a movement to be harnessed here.

A picture inside the Omaha venue in which hundreds are seen standing and listening to Bernie Sanders. Many have their phones in the air recording it and it is a generally young crowd.

Wise man…
Wise man in a sweater in his home library 📚 contemplating: I don't know what word in the English language --I can't find one-- applies to people who are willing to sacrifice the literal existence of organized human life so they can put a few more dollars into highly stuffed pockets. The word 'evil' doesn't even begin to approach it. ~Noam Chomsky

"Some believe it is only great power that can hold evil in check, but that is not what I have found. It is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keep the darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love.' -J.R.R. Tolkien The Hobbit, pub. 1937

Today I said goodbye to Kent, which was glorious. I offer Ightham Mote, a perfect moated Tudor manor house almost destroyed in the 50s and saved by three businessmen from nearby and a stationery millionaire from Portland, ME, who made it his life’s work to restore it. Now owned by National Trust.
A view in an angle of a half-timbered and stone house set in a small square moat. Another view of the Tudor manor. Stone with brick chimneys at top and a small protrusion with a half-timbered part and a window. There are purple flowers in the foreground and the moat is to the left. The inner courtyard of Ightham Mote - stone flooring and half-timbered upper stories.
