Three years ago this terrified dog arrived at our home. Since then we’ve been on a long and often difficult journey to make her feel safe with us and there’s more to do but we’re so glad that #sophiefromromania came into our lives

Early 1900s red sandstone tenement on Marlborough Avenue in the Broomhill area of Glasgow. I like the slight crenellation on the top of the end tower of the tenements in this block. The curved sills under the central windows are also a nice touch.

Neptune, the mysterious, which I planted last year after seeing it in a Bluesky post. I couldn’t find the right spot in the garden for ages and it sat in a pot neglected but once the clematis flowered it was obvious where it needed to be.

Michelle Obama always keeps it real. That’s why we love her.

This is how a decent and good person speaks about other decent and good people who died from a tragic murder.

He'll start a war to:

1. Distract from the Epstein Files
2. Steal oil
3. Justify emergency powers
4. Justify use of the AEA for deportation/internment
5. Help the drug lord he just pardoned

As I posted earlier, the Orange Bag of Pus is going to sack Wiles very, very soon.
"Ms Wiles denied she'd made the remarks to the reporter from Vanity Fair - only for Vanity Fair to play tape of the exchange to the newspaper to prove that she had, in fact, made the comments."

So perfectly Trumpian.

1. A blockade is an act of war

2. The idea that Venezuela has stolen land from the United States is so laughably stupid on its face that even some of his base is like 🤨

3. It’s always about oil.

I don't really understand how parenthood in the USA works.

Negligible parental leave. Barely any annual leave.

When are parents expected to actually spend decent time with their children?

A very good start the the Head of Britain's Intelligence Service, MI6.

Who better to talk about the civil service than a man who’s never had a proper job and has zero idea what government workers actually do? Everything is easy when you don’t know what the fuck you are talking about.

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.

Two options:

1) ICE deliberately targeted him.

2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.

Hard to say which option is scarier.
