Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

There's a Moon Flower #bloominginmygardennow. Finally, after 3 years of trying, I'm getting flowers every few nights. This is No. 7.

Happy Belated National Hummingbird Day! While it was officially yesterday, every day they're in my garden is a celebration. Here's one enjoying the Cardinalis Lobelia in my garden.

The sunset during tonight's walk through the neighborhood was quite a sight to behold.

There's something special that touches the soul when a dragonfly decides to hang out with you in the garden!

I see the most magnificent acts of nature when doing mundane chores in my garden. Today, while deadheading daylilies, I watched this bee flutter from flower to flower. “Aerodynamically, the bumblebee shouldn't be able to fly, but the bumble bee doesn't know it, so it goes on flying anyway.”~MK Ash

Any bird nerds here who know who these feathers are from? I'm in southern NH. I found them early today in my garden. The striped one has an iridescent gold tip that didn't photograph as beautifully as it appeared in the sun. Perhaps a wild turkey (seen in my 'hood) or red-tailed hawk?

on this day in 1848 "the women's suffrage movement in the United States was launched with the opening of the Seneca Falls Convention, which sought to gain certain rights and privileges for women, notably the right to vote."

Lavender is #bloominginmygardennow. A favorite of mine and the bees!

In America, we have no Kings, no Queens, no nobles, no dictators, and no emperors. We have no slaves, no serfs and no subjects. Just us—‘We the People.’

Today's protests should be sponsored by School House Rock. #NoKings #SchoolHouseRock youtu.be/3R1tZ6l876Q?...

Connie Chung is right as other journalists push back during the CNN post event media panel with Anderson Cooper. She's stressing that the media needs to provide 'facts' not opinion. It's that simple! I like that she brought up the examples of Murrow and Cronkite.

Happy #WorldBeeDay!

Kudos to the communities of Lexington and Concord, MA for today's wonderful commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the start of the American Revolutionary War. And thank you NBC Boston for the live television coverage and interesting historical interviews. #LEX250

No surprise to see Senator Cory Booker still addressing the American people from the Senate floor after 19 hours. We saw his stamina when he was an early candidate in NH's 2020 First in the Nation Presidential Primary. Thank you @booker.senate.gov

A little louder for the people at the back: The USPS was never a business. "Service: a system supplying a public need such as transport, communications, or utilities such as electricity and water." (Oxford English Dictionary). www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItMQ... #USPS #USPostalService #PostOffice

If you're not following Loki, you should. He has a story of resilience!

Fascinating read about how the words and phrases we use can stop disinfo. Check out the list of terms we should never use and learn what to say instead. A friend shared this with me earlier today via Sunstack: ReframingAmerica.Substack.com/do-not-associate

Hello Blue Sky World! Good news - spring arrives a week from today ! I can't wait for the arrival of the lilacs in early May. What are your favorite spring flowers?
