"This is history, man!"
--one teenage American boy to another at the ruins of Pompeii,
overheard by me
bink picked me up to go grocery shopping at 2 p.m., after my cashier shift.
When I got in the car she was listening to the radio report on the UK's supreme court shooting down Boris Johnson's attempt to shut parliament.
When I got home from the grocery store, I looked at the Guardian to read up on that story. The top story of the hour, however, was that Nancy Pelosi has announced an official impeachment inquiry.
Wow.
I have barely looked at the news since I moved Sept. 1. I see the Guardian has a new banner [above]. I like it.
I also like Greta Thunberg's new Twitter bio, using Trump's words, "a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future". Ha!

Our respective politics vying for direness...but hope on both sides of the Pond, if small
ReplyDeleteVery cautious hope... But hope!
ReplyDeleteI have lived most of my life on the slenderest threads of hope, and I am still here.
ReplyDeleteHope is, indeed, power.
CROW: A slender thread can be strong, like a spider's. . . Hey, Charlotte's Web!
