Hi!

@shouldnt-you-be-doing-work

We lost power today due to wind storms and every time the wind would gust, this is the look I would get from Bug. A very much "are you hearing this shit" face.

It's interesting, because peafowl do a bit of group think when it comes to reacting to new or surprise things. Big bird flies by overhead? 4 out of 5 birds aren't sure if they should be concerned. If the 5th bird honks, everyone runs for cover. If the 5th bird looks and doesn't react, the other 4 ignore it. New treat? 4 out of 5 birds wait for bird #5 to taste it and show approval or disapproval before they'll try it.

Bug was nervous about the wind, and was on edge about it, but every time she looked to me to see how to react, I just closed my eyes and showed indifference, and she would settle down. Mantis was keeping an eye on Bug, but since Bug was just apparently chilling on my legs, she was not concerned about the wind almost at all, either. Eternal sunshine of the mind, that one.

I miss hanging out with them!! I can't wait for the weather to warm up enough. To be outside more or bring them in more.

Tax breaks for the very rich decrease tax revenues that increase deficit spending.

The cuts increase more borrowing.

We don't borrow to take care of the vulnerable, but we do borrow to feed the rich.

The thing about the moon is maybe you don’t need to write a poem about the moon. The moon’s been done, we’ve discussed it. It’s a coin a mirror an eye a lantern in the darkness. It’s a rock in space. It’s the dang moon we’ve all seen it! Is there something you can notice that’s is more surprising than the moon???
