#Purple, a color that commands attention in the natural world, from the violet of an amethyst to the vibrant petals of a Bearded Iris. Throughout history, purple has been associated with royalty and power, and even in a #garden, it is a statement in the tapestry of #nature.

More about it:
It’s an original oil painting where I wanted to capture the feeling I had from spring.
A lot has been blooming and making me feel peaceful.
For a more intimate and real feeling I’ve added dried flowers that I collected while going for a walk in nature.😊

I know you wanna argue, but: block 'em!
I know you got the fire in your gut: block 'em!
I know our intentions are great
and some of us were real good at debate
but my mentions are a take-free state
block 'em

It is one of life's little ironies that the men of the internet see a romance author and think "they couldn't know anything about the law" when like 50% of romance authors are INEXPLICABLY LAWYERS
Two groups of people I will never ask of their law knowledge credentials, anyone at the dive bar near a law school and romance authors.
“Courtney Milan clerked for the 9th Circuit and the Supreme Court before publishing her first historical romance novel, and even worked for a time as a law professor before becoming a full-time writer.”

A well-known parenting account made a statement about the Trump administration's push for women to have more babies. I’m glad they said something. Parenting accounts shouldn’t be afraid to speak up.

Today (20 May) is the feast day of Alcuin, originally from Northumbria but most famous for his association with Charlemagne's court and Tours. Pictured here is a mid-tenth-century copy of his letters (Lambeth Palace Library MS 218)

Linda McMahon wrote Harvard a letter to which they responded by noting areas that are in need of corrections and then posted it on social media.
Great job Harvard!👏👏👏

Greeting you on Bluesky with this reminder

They are living, thinking, feeling beings

And they deserve our respect, even if we haven't earned theirs.
