I just finished reading Our Lady of Guadalupe: The Origins and Sources of a Mexican National Symbol, 1531–1797 by author Stafford Poole. It reads like a whodunnit! I enjoyed it very much and I've written a review over at Goodreads: www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

I just finished reading another book. This time Carlo Cipolla's THE BASIC LAWS OF HUMAN STUPIDITY. It's a quick read, easy to understand. The world makes more sense now. If your country is going to hell, read this book!

longlist is out

Wow.👇

I've just finished another great book. I've also written an Eng/Span review of the book CONSPIRACIONES by Macario Schettino, Mexican economist and author. Acabo de escribir una reseña del libro CONSPIRACIONES del autor Macario Schettino. www.goodreads.com/user/show/17...

beautiful hydrangea.

Let me explain what this genuinely EVIL memo does. The admin is doubling down on its plan to arrest, detain, and interrogate tens of thousands of legally present refugees; people already vetted who’ve lived here legally for 1+ year. Hundreds were arrested in Minnesota before a court blocked this.

Our Allies Around The World Hold Their Leaders & Their Powerful Elites Accountable. We Don’t: Woke up this morning to the news that Britain’s former Prince Andrew had been arrested because of his involvement with Epstein. Also found out that South Korea just sentenced their former president to life…

beautiful!

I've just finished reading Ring Lardner's book MY FOUR WEEKS IN FRANCE and I've written a review on Goodreads. You can check it out here: www.goodreads.com/user/show/17...

My cat on his way to yell in my face about who knows what. Whatcha mad about this time Grinch?

Reporter reveals new info about 'super duper secret weapon' that closed Texas airspace

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

A difficult day entirely redeemed by an email from a librarian ❤️

Bondi's contempt for the Rule of Law open.substack.com/pub/anntelna...

Raskin: "I want the whole country to look at this. This is the attorney general of the US whose job is law enforcement. We've never had a witness who has misunderstood our rules and been unable to conform his or her conduct to our rules before. Excuse me."

Pam Bondi has been a complete and total failure at her job. The Epstein survivors showed more courage just by being in that room than she did under oath. She refused to answer questions and chose complicity. America deserves better.

😍what a cutie pie, that face says it all

love Snoopy

love watercolor

Ok. This clearly has gotten out of hand. #cat #catsky

For those of you who were keeping up with the mass market mess, here is a more informative article. Trade paperbacks cost only 30c more to make and are priced $18-20 now, where mass market paperbacks didn't sell at $12. So... there's your answer. It's about margins. boingboing.net/2026/02/10/t...

excellent interview! listen👇

"menace to society" I say, menace away! 😍

Trump is actively making our goods more expensive by blocking a piece of key infrastructure - apparently all because his most Epstein-linked Cabinet Secretary conveyed a request from a billionaire GOP donor. America does not have to tolerate this kind of corruption.

naughty, Charlie Brown, naughty...

couch 🥔 love it! 😍

I'm sorry, is the American taxpayer really happy handing their hard-earned money over to this weirdo?

sad state of the US👇

spent today reading and writing. it was a good day.
