Mother’s Day in progress😍👍 Hubs balled my yarn skeins with me, is going to try making pan fried okra for me, cooking steak dinner. I am reaping the reward of teaching my menfolk how to cook😍 Hope my friends here are having a decent day, mothers or not💐

It’s my day to choose my pleasure, guilt free. Instead of vocab work I will start my long put-off infinity scarf. If I fail, I fail, but it won’t be for lack of trying. Will use Feels like Alpaca in ecru and taupe. youtu.be/vFJHKp4I9vs?...

I kept waiting for Mother's Day to be painful or difficult. It's just a little bittersweet. My first since she passed last year. I was so blessed to have her for almost 97 years. I do miss her so. My beautiful, lovely, loving Mom. ❤️❤️❤️

I often say that the fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. But let me be clear, if you aren’t fighting for Black voting rights right now then you aren’t really fighting for democracy.

If we actually want to appreciate moms, we should be providing free childcare, healthcare, and guaranteed income for stay-at-home parents to put more money in families’ pockets and ensure no SAHP is reliant on a partner for their economic security. Idk I think that’s better than 15% off a vacuum.

Go Pennsylvania!! You have 4 house districts that can go red to blue! PA 01, 07, 08, 10!! Primaries are 5/19 - go chose your fighters! Check out @bluevoterguide.bsky.social bluevoterguide.org

Friendly reminder that there’s no wrong way to enjoy a book. With your eyes, with your ears, with your hands, even with your nose (book smell ftw). Good on you for reading however you do it, now go finish your book :)

Mothers' Day for Peace, as originally proposed by poet and philanthropist Julia Ward Howe in 1872: "Our husbands shall not come to us, reeking of carnage...Our sons shall not be taken from us to unlearn all that we have been able to teach them of charity, mercy and patience."

Enjoy this story about a mother’s love, an iconic photograph and President Obama’s kindness. Happy Mother’s Day!

In the spirit of the day, here are my favourite actors who usually play mother-figure roles in their works. On the sole account that they have pavloved me to think that the #kdrama will be amazing whenever I see them in the cast list. And they're pretty accurate so far, happy Mother's Day. 🪷

Native American cultures that the US Constitution is based upon already included a women's council that had "veto" power over any war. White men chose to not include that essential balance of power when founding America.....and now we see how an imbalanced foundation is crumbling. Time to RISE!

Happy Mothers' Day to all the women who carried children in every sense of the word and also to all the women who carry fur babies every day in their hearts. 🐾👶❤️

Part of their new series War Criminals are People, Too😍

A lot of cycling clubs I've been in call everyone hyeong if they're older-- male or female. There are parts of the country where women would even call older female friends 'samchon' (blood related uncle). These words are not as simple as texts make them seem

Love. Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice. From what I’ve tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate To say that for destruction ice Is also great And would suffice. Fire and Ice, Robert Frost

Few artists move as fluidly across music and television as IU, who also goes by her given name, Lee Ji-eun. An all-rounder by any measure, her career has long defied easy comparison. www.koreaherald.com/article/1073...

[1/2] After adding his face to U.S. passports and renaming the Kennedy Center and Institute of Peace after himself, Trump is now erecting banners around D.C. to "thank" himself.

The #BlackHills #SouthDakota chord #uranium mining project is proposing 50 holes up to 700 ft deep! Possibly contaminating multiple aquifers and possibly destroying many sacred places, petroglyphs and even a Buffalo jump site. We need to stop this at the permit phase.

Look how cute our Mother’s Day crafts were!

PUMPS (1913) is a little one-reel rom-com and an absolute delight. Florence Turner and Courtenay Foote (nominative determinism) play two strangers who both vainly opt for too-small shoes for a ball. A painful meet-cute and romance ensue www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eHP...

Mother’s Day severe storms are likely across parts of Texas. Large hail, damaging winds, heavy rain, and frequent lightning are the main threats. Tornado risk is low, but not zero. Watch the timing update: youtu.be/4sviyHOsrJI
