The first posy in a thimble I made, to lift my mood during the pandemic. The flowers are all real. When humans look at plants (even on a screen as here) we recover from stress 60% more quickly & the relaxation response is triggered in our brains. Zoom in if you're strung out🌿

As we fight tyranny, we build solidarity. From solidarity, we draw courage. Surrounded by courageous people and institutions, we more easily find courage within ourselves to keep fighting. Remember: tyranny is only possible if people submit to it.

It’s disgusting to see Cuomo attack AOC but I am glad he didn’t sexually harass her. Seems like a big change for him.

Judge Wilkinson's opinion for a 3-0 panel in the Abrego Garcia case is written for the parties, but also for the public & perhaps a nod at SCOTUS. I go through it in this piece, which I think provides a much-needed boost for all of us. joycevance.substack.com/p/a-fourth-c...

I think what’s most striking about the last few months is how rarely anyone in the GOP applies this simple test. A lot of checks and balances rely on this kind of worrying about precedent but it’s now totally absent, as if they don’t think they’ll ever be out of power again.

The reason guys like Mark Zuckerberg are so obsessed with UFC and appearing masculine is because they’re extremely insecure about their masculinity.

The week was dominated by news about the Maryland man illegally deported to El Salvador. But there was also concern over tariffs and Robert F. Kennedy's work as Health and Human Services secretary.

Lil Marco is learning that diplomacy is difficult, despite the fact that his boss promised to end this war in 24 hours with one phone call & said it “wouldn’t even be that hard to do.” What he won’t say is this isn’t getting done because Putin WANTS war.

🧵 As we celebrate Easter, I’d like to wish you all a peaceful & mellow break. It’s important to switch off & find beauty where we can. This is sunset over my ancestors’ Irish farm yesterday. The colours of Ireland & my belief in love, hope & joy, inspire my art, as you can see here! [1]

There are so many ambitious Democratic lawmakers who apparently don't understand how fast their star would rise with tangible, direct actions. Before this week, Sen. Van Hollen was largely known only to Maryland voters and professional political circles. Now, the country knows his name. That fast.

"Murkowski said Wednesday she was unnerved by how quickly the U.S. Agency for International Development, which was established by Congress, had 'just been obliterated' by the Trump administration."

If Senator Lisa Murkowski is too afraid of "retaliation" to speak her own mind in Donald Trump's Assmerica, then how does she expect to be the voice of all of her constituents?
