That’s the beginning of a corn cob starting to grow! Now, I’ve just got to stay ahead of the chipmunks

They took a universally beloved brand and changed the recipe, took away the summer reading club, leaned into takeout/delivery even though everyone loved going to sit down and eat there. It all collapsed and only the decision-makers are surprised, it’s not the restaurant we liked anymore

I’m always so surprised by how my garden reacts after a few days of rainstorms. My irrational jealousy that they have a glow up and my day is ruined when we get caught in the rain. Anyway, here’s my acorn squash showing off and showing out

🎤🎶When it all, it all falls down🎶

Are all the Black men in my neighborhood dog breeders? I swear the only time I meet them in the wild is when I’m walking my dog and they stop traffic to ask if she’s spayed

I have a meeting this morning that I requested, I just had to dig into my memory bank to remember why. Such is Monday

My nephew plays travel baseball, they have a doubleheader today. They played on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day too. Whoever is in charge of scheduling these kids need their ass beat

Omg, I love it. The Civil War ended 1865. African American newspaper the Freedom's Torchlight, was teaching folks to read. 🥹 "To Make Negro Literature" by Elizabeth McHenry Read free #OpenAccess #Blackademics #BlackSky library.oapen.org/handle/20.50... (Also The Emancipation Circuit, T. Davis)

I got 3 ripe blueberries today and it’s convinced me that I need to plant another bush at the start of fall to help increase yield. One new strawberry is forming and the 2 pear tree saplings are growing well

This coupled with screwworm means that crops and livestock are impacted. I know people shout about my “try to grow something edible” ways, but it’s a good idea to consider. Here’s a link to a list of easy/beginner friendly options www.gardenerbasics.com/blog/easiest...

Not having anything I want for dinner in the fridge and I already took my bra off for the day is causing me a DILEMMA. What am I supposed to do?‽ Go back into prison for a Cesar salad???

Starting to feel like the Little Drummer Boy with how many times I’ve banged this drum, but…here we are 🎶I have no gifts to bring, pa rum pum pum pum🎶

4 months?!? He must have great benefits, leave policy, and healthcare. 😏

I know dats right! To answer your question: no, I don’t keep things in my car* *I do keep lotion, gloss, etc. in my purse and at my office though

6-3 on an Amendment whose wording is as plain as day is dangerously nuts. We’re in a judicial purgatory.

Even though Justice Jackson didn’t write “fuck you, Clarance” in her concurrence, that’s how I read it. And thus, birthright citizenship stands

I won’t let the birds rob me this time, ate this almost-but-not-quite blueberry today. Take that, backyard thieves!

Got a new one, went out back to replace it…my grip strength is abandoning me and I can’t take the old one off the spout

They’re about to create a new charge just for this nigga lmaooo they gunna lock him up for aggravated whimsy 😂😂😂

Even the baby knows this is a lie

Omg, I thought it was Quan

I should have noted, this is a screenshot and not a link. I’m not doing any fundraising pushes right now

The man from Maine is so unpopular, they can’t even include him on the fundraising blitz. What a wasted opportunity to run a decent candidate in that race, it was an unforced error

Spent my day finishing My Friends by Fredrik Backman and I cried so much. It was beautiful, painful, and so masterfully written. OMG, this is the book of the year for me. I was so engrossed that I forgot to eat today. So good…now my eyeballs hurt

I have a small orange enamel coated cast iron skillet from my grandmother that I used a lot. If I had to guess, it predates my by at least a decade…but it could be older than my parents.

When you elect business people instead of public servants, they view public spaces as their private property that should be protected from the constituents rather than something the people should enjoy. Get off my lawn energy for national monuments is disgusting. YUCK

Minding our business, and here comes some nonsense. Smh

Before I start, I’m just going to remind folks my age that about 20 years ago there was a show called The Pickup Artist and these guys were teaching a bunch of men how to talk to women. THESE GUYS

😭😭

For those of you wondering, here’s a list of the signatories. Look for your representatives and make whatever informed decisions that you will www.thepromisetoamerica.com/signatories

These rulings have the logic of a bunch of people who thinks they are the smartest people they know and unlike the Taney Court you cant even say that these rulings are simply a reflection of the time.

Sometimes I wake up and write myself a note in the middle of the night, most of the time it’s incomprehensible to me when I wake up. Last night, I had a really good idea for a research topic and I’m going to look into it this summer. Finally, my nighttime musing bears some fruit!

I’ve been unimpressed with giraffes’ camouflage my whole life, now one is hiding out in TEXAS and nobody can find it‽

It’s raining today, all the fans in the house are blowing with the windows cracked. I feel so luxuriant

Look what I can do! Cleared a task off my list today 👩🏽‍🎨

I can promise you, as crazy as this headline is…you are not prepared for the ride that is the details within this article. This is wild!

Yo, I didn’t know snake plants bloom! I’ve had this plant for more than 5 years, I’ve separated it and given away offshoots a few times. Now, I think it’s going to flower

I’m going to say a thing that I would usually save for a platform with private accounts It quickly becomes dangerous and degrading for many women engaged in purely sexual relationships with straight men. This can’t work because men will use that sex as a punishment or excuse for horrendous behavior

I’ve discovered that men who make eating steak or bacon their personalities talk to me the way men who want to date lesbians do, and I don’t like it. “You don’t eat red meat, you just never had a well-prepared steak” Bitch, get away from my lentils and leave me alone!

I’m sorry, but these reactions to the primaries out of NY are sending me. From the leadership the went in TV, multiple times, BEGGING for a strong oppositional party, they sure don’t seem prepared for challengers to their long-standing neutrality/subservience. You wanted a fight, suit up!

Ahistorical summaries: And the rough-n-tumble settlers in the colonies defeated the mighty British army with grit and a can do spirit Reality: The knowledge of people who were enslaved led the the inoculation of the soldiers against smallpox and public health played a large role in the victory

Men don’t bruise as easily and can lift things too heavy to pick up, that feels so unfair in a world where they can’t even handle the period cramp simulator on the low setting. How are we the strongest soldiers, but only with our internal organs and pain thresholds? *blows whistle and throws flag*

I know that trash can was heavy af because as she was pouring out the trash at a snail’s pace, I was wondering if I was watching an AI video. People spit into public trash cans (among other things)…there’s probably dog poop bags mixed in. YUCK

Does the league pay for the college players and their families to have nice clothes the night of the draft? I never really thought about the expense of that before

The people going around town with a projector are about to have updated animation for this one

As I always say to the young girls “Don’t put yourself on the sale rack, because a mf will still ask for a discount”

The other thing I have to tackle, wild grass infiltrated the corn and idk what to pull and I’m going to have to wait a while for the imposters to show themselves. The potato plants are starting to bloom, so they seem to be progressing well

Because I was out of town, I couldn’t trim my kale plants. They have exploded in blooms that I’d ordinarily control. Upside: the garden is booming with pollinators

I saw this post earlier today and I couldn’t recall the name of the movie at the time, If These Walls Could Talk. The 20-somethings longing for yesteryear should watch this film from 1996

I think about the little girl who is off-camera in this video sometimes and crack up, I hope she’s living her best life
