Mum is turning 93 on Sunday. Got her two different kinds of cheesecake from Gregory's (if you're in the Bay Area, this is a gem), and a hydrangea 😊 gregorysgourmetdesserts.com

Don’t allow anyone to tell you that there’s “no market” for a career as the eccentric yet mysterious owner of a quaint bookstore on a cobblestone side street in Edinburgh that doubles as a café, triples as a bakery, and quadruples as a cat rescue.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

Along with physically going to the Treasury, the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee (Durbin) should refer the matter to the DOJ for investigation and formally request that the FBI arrest Musk. When DOJ declines on orders from Trump, explain the gravity of this to the American people.

Folks the single number one thing you should demand from your Senators when you are making calls is that they start objecting to unanimous consent. It only takes a single Senator to do it and if they start objecting, it will grind Trump's fascist takeover to a halt.

Reminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.

Please don’t even talk to me in the morning until I’ve had my coffee, 27 hours of alone time, several months by the seaside to ease my agonies, and many decades to wander the earth until the fabled blade of my ancestors can finally be reforged
