What a glorious shade of green. Do you cook with mugwort? Decades ago I had sources for mugwort mochi and mugwort soba. Never thought of growing it myself. I have one green thumb and one black one, haha.

Thanks for sharing this. I now have to dig thru many boxes to pull out Consciousness Explained for my "reread this" list. Dennett will provide calm, deep distraction for this stressed-out brain. Books remain packed for the next move, timing tbd, but at least I know which room he was in last time. 😉

This story brought me to tears several times today. Fury toward a president who doesn't respect the military and the ultimate sacrifice. Pain for the parents of these four souls. Gratitude for the Lithuianians for their respect and gratitude.
My own very mixed emotions as the parent of a soldier.

Then they labeled the trade deficit percentage a "tariff" to spin it/obfuscate/lie about it. Vietnam does not impose a 90% tariff on the US.

And:
“In this case, the disobedience is not claiming a toilet seat. The disobedience is claiming a seat in Congress and being in an institution where some people don’t want me here simply because of who I am,” she said. “The civil part is taking the indignities that come with that with my chin up.”
