It’s World Octopus Day. There were 4,200 Lego octopuses in the shipping container that fell off the Tokio Express in 1997. We found our first Lego octopus soon afterwards but didn’t discover another for 18 years. They do still turn up though. Two were found in Cornwall this year. #WorldOctopusDay

Systematically destroying US hegemony in higher-education may feel like "owning the libs" but (1) Education is massive export for US (2) Best & brightest from around world stay in US and start businesses here (3) Higher-education is key employer & medical life-line in many *Republican* states.

There is a suspected outbreak of the plague in Russia. Yes, you read that right. And we cannot trust RFK Jr. and the Trump administration to be prepared to deal with this. We need a Democratic public health doctor in the US Senate.

A still from a piece of black and white archive film. A British soldier probably of the Lincolnshire Regiment, and with one arm in a sling inside his uniform, fraternises with a group of Icelandic civilians who may be on their way to or from a church in the background. IWM film AYY 33X

The Plan of Saint Gall in black and white. I couldn't find one that I thought was good for students to write on, so I made this. I took some liberties with the size of some spaces (to allow for text) and few descriptions, but overall I'm happy with the result.

A plan for the layout of a monastic community that was never built. The document is a copy of the famous Plan of Saint Gall. It shows what buildings would be in a monastic community and the layout of the community.

It's time to get past a man's name and vote for where the candidate stands on issues that belong in politics and to our nation and the territories. Enough with a reckless administration making war or meddling in South American politics and resources. Impeachment conviction requires Senate votes!

As Trump demonizes cities, remember this: Residents of "blue" states send more tax money to Washington than they get back in federal help, while residents of “red” states send less money to Washington than they get back in federal help. Just thought I should point that out.

Only 8 more days until A Waltz of Sinister Import will complete The Supernatural Adventures of Lady & Lord Riven! If you haven't read the 1st 2 cozy-spooky romantasy novellas yet, grab them in ebook & paperback now. Start with A Marriage of Undead Inconvenience: books2read.com/undeadInconvenience

The cover of A Marriage of Undead Inconvenience shows an ominously closed entrance-gate at the top of the cover and a bat with its wings outspread. Beside it is this text: Growling, Margaret turned to her much larger husband. “Are you strong enough to break this door down?”
He shrugged. “Perhaps, but I wouldn’t be able to enter the house afterwards. If you recall, I am held under a code.”
“Ugh.” Of course. As per the Bosworth Accords, vampires were not allowed to enter any mortal residence without an invitation. “I could invite you once I was inside,” Margaret pointed out.
Lord Riven looked pained. “That might suffice—with an extraordinarily lenient judge—but have you considered trying a tediously obvious strategy first?” As she gazed back at him in confusion, his lips quirked. “Here.” Stepping up to her side, he rapped on the door, producing two loud, authoritative knocks.
Footsteps sounded from within a moment later, and Lord Riven smiled down at her with disconcerting tenderness. “You see? I do have some uses after all.”
