What is happening to all the Steinway pianos at the Kennedy Centre? They have been seen being removed and Steinway says they are all going to be sold. This is not Good News! #Steinway #KennedyCenter #Pianosforsale?

I'm still on my "day job" as I start the daily thread for Day 1682 of Russia's all-out war on Ukraine. And it really is all out now, nothing spared Kyiv in particular, schools, hospitals, malls and bridges all "fair game" for the war criminals even 500km from the front.

I’ve been writing about how men need to hold other men accountable if we’re going to solve the epidemic of sexual violence in this country. But I’m in no way blind to the women who throw other women under the bus to maintain proximity to power. Particularly white women.

Tweed is such a beautiful fabric to wear this time of year because it produces, in Dolly Parton's phrasing, a coat of many colors. Even a solid-colored brown is not just brown, but bits of red, blue, and yellow to produce something that looks lifted off the Scottish landscape.
There are two photos taped together. The top shows a brown stone building with a brown thatched roof. It's surrounded by green grass, stone walkways, and blue-gray sea. Below is a checked brown tweed that reflects the colors in the landscape above it. There are two photos taped together. The one at te top shows a rocky hillside with green and straw-colored grass, gray rocks, and a tan sandy beach below. The blue waters are crashing at the shore. Below is a green herringbone tweed that reflects the colors in the landscape above it. There are two photos taped together. The top shows a field of green and straw colored fields with bits of purple flowers. Below is a a series of checked brown tweed that reflect the colors in the landscape above it.
