My favourite grasshopper fact: Grasshoppers first appeared on the planet 250 million years ago. Grass did not appear on the planet until 40 million years ago. Imagine it: 210 million years, hopping around on any random surface you can find, waiting for the grass that will make you truly yourself.
According to NBC News, 72% of the 55 million people who voted early are over 50. So if you are UNDER 50 and you don't want to read a bunch of smug news stories on Wednesday...please show up tomorrow.
We’re gonna end up giving Haley Stevens so much attention and air time that we’re gonna yell her right into MAGA celebrity status. We could just ignore her. She’s literally nobody.

Reposting this as I do think it’s worth a read if you like old buildings or books (although the piece in the link at the end is better)…

do not funnel your grief over this death into trek and x-men merch, paramount & disney dont need your money. go to plays, give to charities, vote for candidates who will fund public art, and you will make it possible for people like patrick stewart to exist and keep existing. a rising tide lifts all
If you want more Patrick Stewarts, then you publicly fund the arts and learning programs, so that working class kids can find their way into making a career in them.
I post this every year on this day and it makes me laugh every year
when artists said this in 2022 they were laughing at us, so 🤷♀️ (but realtalk, I'm glad more people are waking up to it now)
I am taking this to heart Here is a novel I wrote, and here is something nice someone said about it recently You can buy it from many places, including Bookshop and your local indie store, but also direct from the publisher here: payhip.com/b/TDowG
There is no truer nor more important fact than this for a creative seeking to promote their work. I have wanged on about a book until I want to die with shame and had people say, "oh, do yo uhave a book out?" When the shamedeath urge comes, you STILL haven't posted enough. Post double. Triple that.
Please enjoy this parsnip my mum grew and harvested today 💁♀️
