A flying #squirrel but not a flying squirrel.

Hello friends, it's been a productive day here. We worked in the garden and inspected beehives this morning, then went to the butterfly house and a large candy store at Ellie's request. We also picked up two fig trees from a private nursery. The guy is asking me to set up a beehive or two there next year if I'd like to expand my operations. I'm considering it as it would spread my resources over two locations.

How are all of you?

Have a wonderful evening!

Brits can sleep safely tonight, after the heroic work of the Metropolitan Police. The Reverend Sue Parfitt, 83, a retired priest, was arrested in Parliament Square for holding a sign which read:

“I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.”

Under British law, this now puts her in the same category as an ISIS or Al-Qaeda terrorist. The courts may impose a prison sentence of up to 14 years, to protect the public against the existential threat posed by this very dangerous woman.

"The planet's on fucking fire.

There are a lot of things we could do to put it out.

Are any of them free? No, of course not. Nothing's free, you idiots!

Grow the fuck up! You're not children anymore. I didn't mind explaining photosynthesis to you when you were 12.

But you're adults now." - Bill Nye

"Why do you have to make everything political?"

I dOn'T wAnT tO!!!

But certain people made having, Food, Shelter, Education, and Healthcare political.

I'm not a good person, believing that everyone, yes, even people we don't like, deserve the basics of survival is just the barest of minimums.

So, until not believing that everyone deserves basic rights is a barrier for entry into public service, I guess, I'm political as fuck.
