An evergreen with long, thin needles and long, narrow, upright cones. Blue waters of the harbor beyond and blue skies above.

Good morning to you all! Wishing you a wonderful, peaceful weekend. For #GreenSat, here's an evergreen from a ramble we took back in May. #ColorADay #MarbleheadMa

You too Mr Garden!

Hope you have a good day. 🙏

Let’s not forget about this brave man. 💙💙

Middle East crisis live: Gaza running out of specialised food to save malnourished children, UN agencies say Supplies of ready-to-use-therapeutic food will be depleted by mid-August if nothing changes, says Unicef

The Trump Administration Is About to Incinerate 500 Tons of Emergency Food Federal workers warned for months that the high-energy biscuits would go to waste. By Hana Kiros

Here's an extreme example of the reality that there is no absolute scarcity, only distribution politics. In Gaza created as a tool of genocidal war. But the same is true of almost all human needs, including housing here in the USA.

Let me give you a reason to smile: the Earth is a miracle of beauty. How can I not see that truth all around me, every day, from the smallest pot of flowers on a city window, to mountains of majesty wearlng shawls of snow. This Earth is a gift beyond measure. Charleston

REAL HOPE. REAL CHANGE. RECOGNISE PALESTINE With photo of Palestinian flag Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of The Green Party, both at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ

France is planning to recognise the state of Palestine.

Meanwhile, Keir Starmer has described the starvation in Gaza as “unspeakable and indefensible” but still won't DO anything.

Recognising the state of Palestine is the least our government can do.

At bottom right of this picture is a gorgeous spray of soft raspberry Comte de Chambord, a beautiful multpetalled old rose with big, soft green leaves. To the left a chime of bells from penstemon Hidcote Pink, a shade or two softer and streaked inside each bell with baby pink. Bees love them. More of those in the centre of the frame, and spreading above them two sprays of pink-flushed golden Peace roses in full bloom with buds crowding among their glossy dark green leaves. A world of beauty and life on two square metres of London clay.

What a greeting this morning! The garden has drunk in the rain of the last few days and made a rosy rainbow. This inspired today's #haiku over at helenmccarthy51.bsky.social

Everyone should be screaming this from the roof tops.

Beautiful Missy the green eyed bobtail cat lounging on the bed, impatiently waiting for breakfast.

Believe it or not, I truly wasn't going to make it "another single second" without breakfast, momma.

Trump Redefines the Washington Scandal In a Presidency where everything is an outrage, what does it say that MAGA’s revolt over the Jeffrey Epstein files is the one crisis that really might hurt him?

In a Presidency where every damn day is a scandal, what does it say that the Epstein coverup is the only crisis to really hit Trump?

My new column: www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...

We feel helpless as we watch babies, children, desperate ppl starving to death in Gaza.
Trump has the power to persuade Netanyahu to let plenty of food, meds, clean water into Gaza.

Our voices can be heard- if hundreds or thousands of us leave message at the White House every day (202) 456-1111

Elect a felon, expect crimes.
