I am a nyc teacher and I am having an author visit for my grade based on the book, One Girl’s Voice by Vivian Kirkfield on the woman’s rights movement. I would love five copies, one for each teacher on the grade to read to their class. Please repost. Thanks www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

THREAD.

3 years ago, with no warning, a brilliant orange farm cat wandered over from the draughty barn where he had been living, in rural Cornwall, and decided he wanted to live with us instead.

We decided to call him Jim.

This is the first photo I took of him, on that night: December 1st, 2022.

@markhertling.bsky.social Sir, I saw you with @nicollewallace.bsky.social this afternoon. I wanted to thank you for your emotions & humanity about the shooting of the National Guard members. They weren't under your command but they were your troops.

My best wishes to you and your family always.

For the [ast few years I've been editing the short fiction for Star Ship Sofa, a venerable SF (not F/H) podcast. It's a small joint, and I've turned it primarily into a reprint market as we can afford only $50 per story.

I've also turned it into a reprint market because writers need money fast. 🧵

The EPA is moving forward with approvals for pesticides containing “forever chemicals” as an active ingredient, dismissing concerns about health and environmental impacts raised by some scientists and activists.

Here’s what to look out for:
EPA just approved new ‘forever chemical’ pesticides for use on food
Critics warn the EPA’s approvals of new PFAS pesticides could expose more Americans to “forever chemicals” through their food.

For what it’s worth, as a commander and officer it was my duty, moral obligation, and legal requirement to first question and then to not obey any illegal order I was given.

The same is true for everyone who swear their oath.

Hope that clears things up.
