@Jaq__W Oh to be a fly on the wall at one of their dinner parties.
@Jaq__W Love the poses!
@LeftistLawyer I understand. I'm just frustrated that so many people don't have a sense of community or moral responsibility to each other. It's every man for himself.
@LeftistLawyer Lots of people have this attitude, whether they're church-going or not. I've spoken to some. They say the homeless are making a choice, they don't want to work, they . just want to party. I wonder if the "housed" consider what it's like to actually live on the streets.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Dunno where it's from but god bless this artist.
@samlitzinger The way things are going, at their first lecture #Florida college students will have to salute #deSantis
@samlitzinger Surely. But I feel that we are so ill-prepared for the creeping #Fascism in Florida and elsewhere. My daughters, who work with teenagers and young college students, are stunned by their lack of knowledge about American history.
@bookgaga Agreed. I also feel a direct emotional connection.
@samlitzinger Imagine if this was part of the high school history curriculum. At the least, regarding WWII.
@bookgaga I do- what about you? Breaking the wall. Also love to compare/contrast lit on similar themes.

"In the infamous menagerie of our vices,
There is one uglier, wickeder, more shameless!
Although he makes no large gestures nor loud cries
He willingly would make rubbish of the earth
And with a yawn swallow the world;
He is Ennui!—His eye filled with an unwished-for tear,
He dreams of scaffolds while puffing at his hookah.
You know him, reader, this exquisite monster,
—Hypocrite reader,—my likeness,—my brother!"#TodaysPoem #poetry

@kimlockhartga @raccoonformality @bookstodon Add a sprinkling of Roddy Doyle.
@ScruffyJunco Love it when she lays on my chest. Two hearts beat as one.
#Mindfulness with Emma will begin at 5, on the bed. The focus will be on the weightiness of her body, the many colors of her fur, and the tiny exhalations of breath from her nostrils.#cats #CatsofMastodon
