Another #DoorInMidAir from #StGeorgeDunster #Somerset This shows that a rood loft (and screen) once separated the choir arch from the crossing. It's interesting that this was lost while the more substantial choir screen across the width of the church survived

🎉 BREAKING: WE DID IT! 🎉 After days of intense pressure from D.C., the Indiana Senate REJECTED the mid-decade gerrymandered map! This victory belongs to every Indivisible member, every activist, and every Hoosier who called, emailed, and showed up.

"When power fears the light, truth is the only torch left standing." We have never seen a presidency as criminal, lawless, and corrupt as the fascist authoritarian Trump regime. No other presidency is even close. 😳👇

West end of nave #StGeorgeDunster #Somerset #AdoorableThursday Contrary to the aesthetic, this isn't a Romanesque doorway. It is more likely an English Renaissance addition, when the round arch had a brief resurgence (as it did mid-C19)

Why is the media not covering this. On a loop.

Get ready for one of the very best meteor showers of the year! The Geminids are great and this year's show over the weekend should be excellent. Also: a gorgeous star cluster with a dramatic swirl of stars. badastronomy.beehiiv.com/p/watch-the-... 🔭 🧪

My most recent tumble! I got more bruising this time on some of them but I'm still generally happy with them.

Whitehouse: Not only were the founders extremely interested in checks and balances but they were desperately concerned about corruption. This Court has consistently taken the side of corruption against every device Congress has created to fight political corruption.

It wasn’t even close.

BREAKING: Kilmar Abrego Garcia has been released from immigration detention after a federal judge's order Thursday, his attorney's office says.

💯💯💯 But actually, not to worry, not too many farmers will get that money, it will be large corporations that own them.

That's badass. And hopefully, an indication of things to come in 2026. 🌊

Trump’s DOJ can’t even manufacture a fake case against Letitia James. Imagine getting beat THREE TIMES by the woman who already cleaned your clock in court. She’s undefeated, unbothered, and still living rent-free in Donald’s head.

All I want for Xmas. 🙏

Reuters: The deployment of troops to cities around the US has cost more than $340 million, Sen. Tammy Duckworth said, highlighting the expense of Trump's use of the military in the Democratic-led cities. #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

A fifth-generation Kansas farmer eviscerates Trump's phony bailouts. He calls out GOP sycophants for cheering empty handouts while trade policies devastate rural America. Real priorities like infrastructure and hunger are ignored for shiny stadiums. 1/2

On Tuesday, Pritzker signed a bill that makes it easier for Illinois residents to sue federal immigration agents for up to $10,000 if they believe their rights have been violated, and also restricts those agents from enforcement outside courthouses.

Worth repeating: The Supreme Court does not have the power to overrule or rewrite our Constitution.

Once again, a discharge petition had to be used to get the bill past Speaker Johnson, out of committee and to the House floor for a vote.

Some of the vaulted ceilings at Peterborough Cathedral still retain their medieval painted decoration…fictive masonry, or ashlaring, with a classic flower motif 😍

The Trump administration is all headlines and no story. Flash.Bang. Oh, look over here !

The US government is now a mafia organization.

Ossoff: "This is one of the most consequential votes this Senate will take all year. By saying yea or nay to the clerk of the Senate later today, senators will decide whether people live or die. Senators will decide whether Georgians & folks across the country are financially ruined or have a shot."

Trump and Republicans are ripping away the Very SOUL of America. 🇺🇸. Be Careful of what you Vote For. Either Vote in every election or Face Civil War from within. 😱😱😱😡😡⚖️🇺🇸🇺🇸🗳️🗳️🗳️🤔👏😎

🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) says it’s readying to sue Georgia, a key GOP-led swing state, after being told to “pound sand” over the issue. Other red states have expressed “serious concerns” about handing over the voter data, a top DOJ official revealed.

The regime has unleashed its goons on anyone with brown or black skin. It's morally repugnant, un-American and must end.
