It hurts when the mirror shows not a man, but what made him possible.
found a little buddy and brought her to a nice flower shrub, but why are her wings so mangled? :( #invertebrate
A trillionaire isn’t a success story. it’s a policy failure.
THREAD. 3 & 1/4 years ago, with no warning, a brilliant orange farm cat wandered over from the draughty barn where he'd been living, in rural Cornwall, & decided he wanted to live with us instead. We decided to call him Jim. This is the first photo I took of him, on that night: December 1st 2022
