This week's is early. Our local Loblaws has a gorgeous flower section, a really awesome florist and so many 50% castoffs. I couldn't resist.

Pale roses with a hint of greyish purple, purple Stock flowers, and Green Hydrangeas. This one is particularly soft, springlike and pretty.

Multitasking is a myth.

Busyness, for the sake of busyness is a trap.

Librarians have never been a quiet bunch: Information, after all, is power.

🧐 Shhhhhaving cream, if this ends up being a double feature I am blaming all of you for the many tears that will be spilled.

I've seen them all before; each has a performance that's been calling to me lately. Which one should I rewatch this week?

@Dbot Brilliant! Though I could barely watch that without thinking of this. I kept waiting to hear "Fefefefefe" and "Chris Waddle" 🀣

Here is a detail many people don't pick up on..

Richard Spotted Elk (son of Chief Spotted Elk) wearing moccasins where the soles are fully beaded.. It is not common except for ceremonial purposes. These days many won't wear them except after death. But if they were an important person back in the day, on special occasions they would wear them.

From Scott Dworkin:
The quote of the day in my mind is when Biden said: β€œIf :Asshat: 's stock in his Truth Social company drops any lower, he might do better under my tax plan than his.”

My housing support officer yesterday decided my saucepans needed replacing. I agreed basically because i didn't want to argue. I said i would buy new, her thinking was new start was needed. Well today she turned up with a set of high quality saucepans and frying pan. Made by Antony Worrall Thompson. I was blown away. She said she had them at home. But they were boxed and looks brand new. I offered to pay her biut she refused. Sich an awesome gift it blew me away.
