"What time is breakfast?"
that's not the sun, just #lightning

In 2024 Vance campaigned promising no stupid wars, no sending our kids to fight, now it's 2026 and he and Trump have sent our kids to fight in 8 stupid wars in 1 year.

cover of book Convenience Store Woman (large white font) by Sayaka Murata (black font) against blue background. Bottom half a white plate with a rice ball woman's face (nori hair, pink ribbon, pink flower) a pink and white patterned folded napkin. A pink ribbon along R height of book "A celebration of nonconformity that is both joyous and unsettling" New Yorker "Best Books of the Year" SOURCE https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/convenience-store-woman-sayaka-murata/1127137304
marvelous: middle-aged woman, who as a child knows she's a social outlier, feels comfortable with life as a convenience store clerk where the manual provides rules she understands, resisting social and family pressures to lead a "normal" life

at first WiesΕaw MyΕliwski's #book Needle's Eye made me think first of Kafka's The Trial and then The Castle. Covers changes in a Polish village & town from WWI to post-WWII moving fluidly back and forth between the youthful and aging memories of a medieval historian.

a #new kangaroo
it liked to box #heavy
well-trained it was too
it took on all comers
it would take you on too.
One day at the hour
of the boxing display
it hid behind a tree
and didn't want to play
it didn't want a title
just wanted to be free

MC Beaton's Hamish Macbeth series carried on by RW Green in Death of a Spy, not as #cozy as the originals, moving into action thriller lite as Hamish & American James Bland tear around the countryside hunting down an old spy network. #book #booksky #mystery #Scotland
