Every summer my entire area gets this, what my kids and I call, “summer snow.” All the cottonwood trees release their seeds and fill the sky like this. It “snowed” on me while I gardened yesterday and it made me smile when I really needed it. So I thought I’d share the magic 🤍

Better not call it a “vaccine” or it might not get approved. Maybe market it as a recreational drug.

Funding for Ukraine is “not a charity, it’s a responsibility“ says Ukrainian MP Oleksiy Goncharenko. The U.S. has provided security guarantees for Ukraine since 1994. Now, three years after Russia began its invasion, America’s financial support for the country hangs in the balance. #Velshi
‘We want peace more than anybody else’: Ukrainian MP says security guarantees needed from Russia
Member of Ukrainian Parliament Oleksiy Goncharenko says U.S. support for Ukraine is crucial to supporting a lasting peace, and that much of the funding the Trump administration has been deriding was approved by the U.S. already. "It’s not a charity, it’s a responsibility," says Goncharenko.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.
