Hey. If you have ever been somewhere near David Tennant and are semi-randomly approached to see if you have any anecdotes about David Tennant, assume it's enemy action. Sorry for vagueness.

Today I learned about the Minneapolis cat tour. I strongly suggest that this type of pet tour be implemented in cities, towns, hamlets, villages, and any other incorporated or unincorporated communities post haste.

Given the topic of said book, it's possible. However, I also never underestimate the good a patio can do for mental health.

The project to being my long lost novel, KAMIKAZE L’AMOUR, back into print is doing well, but with 10 days to go, it could use some help to push it over the top. Please take a look at the project and consider backing it. Thanks!

South Carolina has been fighting for accessible abortion long before the Dobbs decision, and we’re still here fighting now. The need keeps increasing while the resources decrease, but we are scrappy and will continue to find ways to get South Carolinians (+ all Southerners) the care they deserve.

Can you arrange for History to pull this car over and lecture to the country in the backseat until they learn to behave like a stable democracy?

With 10 days until polling day, it’s time for our ‘10 things you might not know about Victorian elections’ countdown. 10. Before 1918 not all constituencies voted on the same day, with several weeks between first and last polls. On election timing, see victoriancommons.wordpress.com/2024/06/20/j...

First of all, has a person ever looked more mischievous? I wish I knew her. Secondly, this is a miniature portrait from around 1660. It comes with overlays that allow you to change her appearance for fun. Filters from 500 years ago lol!

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖
