We took the corgis to a local orchard this afternoon.

Siggy was quite interested in the pumpkins. 😄

Ragnar did not appreciate the tractor, it was too loud. 😞

But, there was plenty of new smells, a bit of apple crumble, and a nice nap in the car.

4 pictures:
1. 2 corgis sit in a pumpkin patch.
2. A tri corgi climbs on an orange pumpkin.
3. 2 corgis sit in a wagon and smile for the camera.
4. 2 corgis are in the backseat. One is grinning with his tongue out, and the other is asleep.

I am writing this because it has swiftly become crystal clear to me that many people have no idea what is happening or how this works. Here is a thread for non-academics to put into context what just happened to Dr. Mark Bray, a fellow historian.

The film Nuremberg has a trailer out. The most important line from this film is "Do you know why it happened? Because people let it happen." People started complying in advance last year after the election. They let it happen. Don't be one of those people.

This part of the Nobel committee's statement hits.

www.nobelprize.org/prizes/pea...
#politics #NobelPeacePrize #politics

The image contains a text block set against a plain white background. The text reads: “When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognise courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist. Democracy depends on people who refuse to stay silent, who dare to step forward despite grave risk, and who remind us that freedom must never be taken for granted, but must always be defended – with words, with courage and with determination.”

Ume, the Malayan tapir calf, isn’t exactly dainty when it comes to eating her salad behind the scenes. 🥬 Now, 8 months old and 400 pounds, she’s growing fast, and those loud crunches mean she’s getting all the greens she needs to thrive. 💗

-He watches people pass the house on a walk, but doesn't see them come back, so now he think there's a portal in that direction. Very scary.
-coughs and sneezes require a corgi rescue response or human will die
- ice cubes are the best
- can change his relationship with gravity at will

The local corgi will be 3 in a few days. Some general info about this nut case:
- must eat food in order of deliciousness with the best food first
- if he bumps something and it moves, he thinks it's alive and never to be trusted
- the best place is playing ghost under a towel

All languages be like that and it's annoying. Is it minute or minute? Read or read? Loan words in every language also stink.

First freeze tonight. Not sure if it's should heat the house or not. Probably should...

Mixing pigments to paint my applique of Bobbin, who seems very critical of my color choices.
