Barn swallow at maximum floofage this morning. 🪶

I've spent a chunk of the afternoon downloading Kindle books to my device. But then my sodding internet connection fell over and now I've got a horrible feeling that everything that was queued will not now download.

Good for her! Governors need to be standing up to this fascist bullshit, not rolling over and complying. Same goes for everyone else. Defy Trump, defy Musk-ovitch, tell them to get fucked! "You and whose law?" Because his Executive Orders AREN'T laws!

“When fascism begins to creep in around us…. Trusting your instincts, naming the threat and sharing your fears isn't just cathartic - it's empowering. It might even save your life.” No excuses. No equivocation. We call it what it is. And them what they are. Very good letters in @theguardian.com

I heard on the radio this morning that the new FBI director had told his staff to ignore Musk-ovitch's email. Lots of unity, then, in the new US Govt. (I mean, I expected nothing less with President Musk-ovitch involved, but still...)

Trump's 'bold international leadership' will benefit the US and Russia, and no one else, certainly not Ukraine! Anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded.

This can’t to repeated enough. President Zelenskyy is the democratically elected leader of a sovereign country who is bravely standing against the illegal invasion of Ukraine by a murderous ACTUAL dictator called Vladimir Putin

Been downloading Kindle books that I don't have on the newer device (it's 3-4 years old, now) before Amazon disallows such a thing. I'm finding a lot of books/authors I'd totally forgotten! TBF, my Kindle collection goes back over a decade & numbers 1500+ books! AND I read 200+ books per year, so...
