It's 6 weeks since I deactivated and deleted my Facebook, Instagram and Twitter accounts. I miss some of the family updates: births, birthdays, etc but we message and call each other now, so it's better. Isn't life good 😊

A thing I wish I could teach people is that the vast majority of very rich people are deeply stupid. They did not get where they are because of ingenuity or talent. They got there because of compound interest on hereditary wealth and being tax cheats.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

To keep fragile or small items protected, some of our material is stored in boxes like these. This tiny ‘Book of Nouns’ from 1800 may seem normal size on the shelf, but in reality it’s only 6cm tall! [C.C. 423 BOO]

Did u know? When choosing plants for your garden, it's a good idea if you choose with native pollinators in mind, to help support our beleaguered 6-legged allies. Crocus is a fab choice for this time of year. It supports hungry moths, butterflies & bees. Go plant. 🙌🌿🌱🐙🌍🦋🐝
