Librarian. University professor. Community volunteer. Vocal music. BTS ARMY. I spout to uplift the spirit of all, not bash those I disagree.

Yes. All perennial and all native, including the roses. In this part of my L-shape native perennial garden are Texas Rock Rose, Hummingbird Bush, Texas Sage, and Butterfly Bush. Not blooming at that time are Mexico Marigold Mint, Moonshine Yarrow, and Native Prairie Verbena. I love them all.

Couldn't count how many times I talked to my Bay tree after the ice storm,
"Please stay with me, please ..."
And it did!

The National Park Service handle was one of my favorite when I was on Xitter. Wish they are here.

For good quality, I go with Clarks flat loafers. For less expensive everyday wear, I found these comfortable slip-on walking shoes when I was looking for sneakers without shoelaces. They have arch support, are breathable, and come with many brands/colors.

I need a good flat shoe. I live in sneakers these days since I don't really wear Docs anymore. If anyone knows of a good flat, let me know. Pics and links accepted.

"Rutgers administrators agree to most protester demands"

Headline of the article in Inside Higher Ed. There was no need to call in the police in riot gear; at least the president showed willingness to listen.

Absolutely. That's the reason I much prefer vocal music to instrumental music. I look for the poetical beauty in lyrics that tell a story. The rhythm of poetry.

He’s not a visual like Jin, the commanding presence like RM, or the smooth dreamy vocal like jk. He has a humble beginning, a stubborn commitment to music, the unfailing love for his Bangtan brothers. He told raw stories of hurt, pain, and gratitude. Suga and his sparkling black mic. tonight #BTS

It was indeed. Now I understand how the sudden change in light and temperature could be scary for pets. My favorite part of the #eclipse2024 are the crescent moon shadows under the trees.

Professor Kyle @blackcatprose

So...if you ever have the opportunity to be in the path of totality for an eclipse – I highly recommend it! That was so freaking cool. Like I read, it got cold & dark, we saw stars, & the glow around the sun – & on the horizon – was amazing. Also, drink like 4 beers, cuz that makes it even better!

The shadows under the trees are my favorite part of the eclipse. As the sunlight went away and totality began, the exteriors of our ACT tower lit up in maroon right away. #eclipse2024

Agreed. It's the conservative moral hierarchy based on the Strict Father Model shared by TFG and the evangelicals. That's why Taylor Swift terrifies them. (Source: George Lakoff, Moral Politics, 1996)

Professor Kyle @blackcatprose

I’ll never get why journalists were shocked at evangelicals loving TFG. Their goals — patriarchy, white supremacy — are identical. And the flashy, tacky aesthetic of both aligns too.

And among the US deaths, the partisan divide. Policies can kill and leadership matters.
(Source: Eric Topol)

Deb Prothero @Deb_Prothero

Canada's Covid Management under the
JustinTrudeau Liberals enabled Canada to have only 40.5% of the per capita deaths from Covid when compared to the US.

The US cumulative rate of death from Covid is 246.5% of Canada's.

The limitations and costs were worth every life saved.

Boy! Do I have a smelly driveway.

Jack Jeng @drjeng

Cream peach Mother of Pearl and bright red Chrysler Imperial (so named because it was first used in the commercial for the car).

Heavenly first blooms of the year from the driveway rose garden, and they, as well as three other varieties, will continue blooming non-stop until winter freeze.

This Splashback from last August reaffirms the multiple life’s purposes of gummy bears, not only for history lessons but also strategic planning (as in D&D).

Haven't posted in a while. I've been doing art. Here is my recreation of the assassination of Julius Caesar with gummy bears. Ides of March.

And then there is this Splashback, probably a bug from the Splashback algorithm

Jack Jeng @drjeng

I'm puzzled what to do with Splashback spouts that were originally posted a year ago.

Do I interact with a voice from a distant past? Do I "like" it? Do I reply if I have something to say? Or do I ignore it, knowing that the person behind the voice has long moved on?

Made so many masks to wear and to give away since the start of the pandemic until everyone had to switch to KN95 or KF94. They are fun sewing projects.

Melissa Griffith ☕ aka Masker @ImNobodyToo

Woohoo! It's Friday!

I decided it's time for us to put our money where our mouth is for the #SpoutibleScavengerHunt with #mask .

We should all have them. So, show me what ya got! 😜 (TOS, blah blah). I've included a sampling of mine.

Your garden looks happy and healthy. Mine has barely started - Taiwanese lettuce and Bok Choy; I couldn't tell which one is which though ...
